Is there anyone else who was just cracking up the entire time or was that just me? Bob, your son’s taste in costumes is awesome! Hobbits are the best!

Dad of the year! Love how you make content not geared toward trying to appeal certain audience just to get the views but making ones that you find interesting. You inspire all of us

@danielstellmon5330 10 ай бұрын

What if Bob is his own target audience? Builds that appeal to him appeal to us too.

@Joe___R 10 ай бұрын

If you ever need to make larger fake feet, you can soak a silicone mold in acetone, and it will swell a fair amount. If you keep molding the new larger feet, you can quickly get to a massive Bigfoot size with all the fine details your original foot had. This was a common method used before digital scanning and 3D printing existed.

I think this is one of your best vids in a long time. It was you filming something you wanted to do, not someone making content as a business. Those are different things to me, and it feels different when you watch. More genuine. I hope it does well in both aspects. Great job!

@RobWalsh 10 ай бұрын

I literally finished the podcast just before watching this, and your worries (while charming, and "real") are completely unfounded. This is AWESOME! What a truly delightful project and video - please keep doing more of these. Your passion and joy and "I'm going to try something I've never done before" are inspiring and entertaining, and why I look forward to these every time. There are lots of woodworking youttubers - there's nobody even close to the unique perspective you bring to the world.

@andy-in-indy 10 ай бұрын

The color worked out rather well: good job! I hope your next silicone application goes as well or better! The best thing to have when casting your own body parts is a helper - it reduces most of my anxiety is having someone who can pour and run and fetch if something is forgotten. Also, there are a lot of adhesives and tapes that stick well enough to silicone these days, but what I usually use is Permatex Adhesive Sealant (Clear RTV Silicone). You get a chemical bond to most silicone and you can get a mechanical bond to other (non-smooth) materials. I have used it to fix torn tin cure silicone molds.

I once helped a friend with a hobbit costume.. :P I made a skirt for her, helped her find a wig, and for the feet, we found some nylon ankle socks that matched her skin tone, cut of a few curls from the wig, and stitched them on there! XD

@wolflahti412 10 ай бұрын

Tolkien consistently described the hair on Hobbit feet as thick and curly: "Their feet grow natural leathery soles and thick warm brown hair like the stuff on their heads (which is curly)", and it surrounds the feet, encompassing the heels. "It was a long time before the hair on the back of his [Bilbo's] head and his heels grew properly again." I have never seen an artistic rendition that has this correct. (I suppose it is difficult to do this without making them look like bunny slippers.)

@VAXHeadroom 10 ай бұрын

They look great!! I think the colors came out perfect and the hair works just fine. The problem solving of having him wear socks with a sole glued on is genius. Filing that one away... The only MINOR improvement would be to cut the shine - maybe some matte fixative or something before gluing on the hair. Really minor nit.

@big_badaboom 10 ай бұрын

Hi Bob. I would suggest that you try painting the socks a meaty red - instead of a skin colour. I think that the faint show-through of a "flesh" colour should make the feet look more lifelike. Using red as a base colour is what the SFX folks do to make their prosthetics look more realistic.

@CharlieFlanagan 10 ай бұрын

those turned out really good. if i remember correctly, in the movies, for the wide shots and any shot where the feet weren't prodomently displayed, they wore shoes that had feet over them. probably something similar to converse chucks, since they would be running in them. so you could have used women's slippers instead of the insole glued to a pair of socks.

Dude...baby oil. It works as mold release for skin, and helps prevent hairs from getting caught in the alginate. Also, colder water keeps the alginate from setting quite so fast. It's uncomfortable, but it's a lot easier to work with.

Maybe you should have used the soft urethane foam they use for prop swords and larp weapons. It might have been easier to paint, not so shiny and probably more durable.

@Horror_Hero 3 ай бұрын

It came out great either way. But ya I've noticed a lot of prop people these days take the harder way with the fancier materials. I'd like to see if they could pull off something with "primitive " materials. I know watching faceoff. Some of the contestants didn't even know how to handle a cotton and latex buildup. Because they only knew about more advanced materials. Good prop and fx artist should know how to walk before they can run. Not saying this guy doesn't know. Just giving an example.

Thankfully I convinced him that there isn't enough time left to do this for this Halloween. Also I wear a size 13 sneaker, he wears a size 12. I don't think there is enough size difference to do it.

9 years ago I made silicone Hobbit feet for my 12 year old daughter. I made moulds of her feet, pulled plaster foot from those, sculpted the hobbit feet referencing my feet, made a mould of those and cast them in silicone, tinted them and hand punched hair into them. a lot more work but only slightly better than the ones you made.
