The thing about it is, even if the build isn't hyper detailed, or is a little wonky, It's still effectively scary because of the rules the angels work by. That's just a testament to how great the angels are as monsters.

It is so wonderful that you share your experience and knowledge with us. You are so talented and yet you create things that are attainable to a newer creator. Thank you, you entertain and teach, so enjoyable!

This made my whovian heart so happy, and I'm makeing two of these! One weeping one frozen in attack look. Thank you Allen never thought I could do this!!!

I'm not too into making Halloween displays like this but I appreciate that you take the time out of your day to show everyone how to make it. Here's to budget art!

Great info! I never would've thought of using buckets as a base. Guess I over complicated it. Also, didn't know that it's the propellant in the spray paint that actually melts the styrofoam heads, I thought it was something in the paint itself. Very useful tip! Thanks Allen!

I'm so glad I found this! This is freakin awesome! I'm sending this to my husband and sons because this is what we need for our yard this Halloween! Thanks for building this and thanks to the person who suggested it!

Are there many ways to create this so much better-YES! HOWEVER, I LOVE your way of doing this b/c you are showing us how to make something this jaw dropping on a budget-and that I am forever grateful! You are straight and to the point with your builds and offer alternatives and pricing on your tools/supplies. Kudos!!! I plan to build this for my 2022 Halloween yard art!

The remnants bin in the fabric department of walmart is great for cheap fabric you can use to wrap those arms.

Thank you for the breast-inspired eye contact. It really brought the whole video together!

This is so amazing!!!! She is stunning!!! You are very talented, and I am so thankful that you chose to share😊

My granddaughters learn how to make stuff today. We have one fantastic weeping angel. My granddaughter’s loved making this. Thank you for sharing.

Just stopping by after watching your videos on and off for ten years to say a very belated thank you for everything! Your mini LED spot light tutorial helped me save thousands of dollars and I've been using those to light my haunt for almost a decade. But also your ideas and the way you pull off making props is insanely clever and creative. Keep it up and I wish you all the best

Best part of KZfaq Wednesday is forgetting that its Wednesday and being surprised by a new vid!

I have been struggling to make female hands for years. Thank you so much that is awesome

You must find it so hard to sleep Allen with all of the ideas you have floating around your head. Your imagination is superb. Most people look at stuff that's been hanging around for ages and think "Why do I still have that - I'm gonna chuck it", whereas you must look at 'useless' stuff and think "Aha, I know what I can do with that!". I bet if you went driving out into the barren desert, tens if not hundreds of miles from anybody or anything, and you loose a wheel - somehow, you WILL find a way to create a wheel from something and get back home. You'd probably make such a good job at it you wouldn't bother replacing it with an actual wheel!

This is a fantastic build! I have a ton of sheer red fabric, and I think I'll use tomato cages for the frame, and maybe even lights under layers of fabric. Thank you thank you!

This was amazing. Thank you for sharing! I hadn't thought of 5 gallon buckets as a building material which is an absolute shame as three local businesses give them away for free. Coming at this from both a Doctor Who fan and sewers perspective Im gonna suggest people doing this actually beak out a needle and some wire or cord (for the water resistant properties and sturdiness) and use a pretty easy sewing technique to get the look right for the dress. Added bonus? No pleating. The original Weeping angel design is actually gathered rather than pleated. Im gonna try to explain how to do it but Im not sure it will make sense to others. If not, if you look up how to sew an ancient Roman or Grecian dress costume you should be able to find a basic tutorial to show you the shape the fabric needs to be and how to gather the waist. So if you work with the tarp you can cut it out in two pieces and not have to worry about seaming since you have the heat gun to fuse it. If you are using fabric and really hate sewing you could make it one piece that would be put on the form like an apron and sew up the back. If your doing two pieces make the neckline at the top then cut down moving out to get the added fullness you'll need further down. Take the pieces and put them on the body. If your sewing stitch up the seems for a basic look dress. If your using the heat gun and tarp can us that to seam them together. Fuse at the shoulders then down the sides attaching the two pieces to each other but not the form underneath. Then take your needle and whatever your using for thread and stitch around the body in a wide running stitch, basically just going up and out of the fabric at regular intervals. Your aiming to make a circle around the body at about its hips. Once you've stitched around the body you gather the material. Lots of tutorials online as to how but I promise its easy. Essentially you are pushing the fabric together on the thread you laced through it. Once its gathered in a bit lift that line of stitching where the fabric is scrunching up to the waist and keep gathering it in until it holds tight around the waist. Then tie off your string to hold it all gathered together. There will be a bunch of fabric that wants to balloon over that thanks to lifting it up. Letting it will give you the look from the show but since the tarp is a stiffer fabric you'll probably have to smooth it down for a better look. If you lifted it out of the way you could use the heat gun to fuse all that gathering into place then it would drape over and hide that should it look messy. Lastly at this point cut the bottom of the dress so it lays as you'd like. Not sure if it this idea will be of use to anyone but just incase I had to put it out there.

The pool noodle is available year round at Dollar Tree. It is used for Floral arrangements. This is so cool!

Been watching you for years...okay for at least four years and you are the master! Thanks for all of your work it’s amazing!!!

Wow epic crying angel very well done very well made and handcrafted

Just to add, to ensure the styrofoam is 100% safe from the spray can propellant, you can coat the styrofoam in cheap pva glue (good old white school glue) It adds a protective barrier on the styrofoam so you can paint it with anything without the paint eating away at the foam.

Loved the dogs reactions. I see why you said put a long sleeve shirt on to hide the foam. Loved this.

Allen, as I have said before. Your knowledge just overwhelms me. I man of a million talents... Thank You for everything...

Not only is this an insanely informative video, it's a great idea and I think you killed it!! Also, you are absolutely hilarious I cant wait to see what else you create!

Love this she turned out great!! If you do a layer of mod podge over the foam head first then that will better protect it from melting from the primer if anyone's worried about that!

Man this takes me back doing things like this. Thanks for the videos and love your love for the craft.

Wow the hair and hands is fabulous.

Every time I watch your videos I want to make the things you come up with!! So inspirational... thank you!

I recently found ur channel and idk why you don't have more hype

Impressive the end result. Any dog ​​will be scared! Really enjoyed!

WOW!!that's beautiful.. awesome job..love it

You are such an artist!! What a creative project!!! Thank you for sharing it!

Totally making this! This will be my Saturday project! 🖤 Thank you!!!!

Oh my gosh. I always wanted to do weeping angels and with covid she has a lot to weep about. Thank you so much. I also always wanted to do those spooky snowmen from doctor who.

Love this, shes beautiful.. love how you did the hair and how to make hands. I made a large tombstone today using an old refrigerator we had in garage that didnt work. Also made a Mosoleum facade last night, and i a flying crank ghost behind it. Thanks for keeping us entertained and inspired as well as taking our minds of the craziness going on in this world! Love the end seeing the dogs and house!

so talented and i love your personality!! what a great skill to have.

Whoa whoa whoooa! This is amazing! Thank you sooooo much for sharing. You’ve given me the confidence to make so much more stuff.

Awesome job!!! I Love it 💕

I love when you do videos like this. Easy. fun n low budget... Thank you

Always enjoy your videos. Always able to take a new technique that you share and put a new spin on it for my builds. Thx again

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="510">8:30</a> another option is to cut a tall trapezoid/ sleeve-shaped piece from the remnant piece of tarp.

“You can “”develop”” your weeping angel any way you wish.” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Holy crap thank you for being one of the few people that actually has the volume in your video loud enough I only need 15% to hear it unlike most other videos I need up to 50% or even higher and yes it's literally just this video I've ever seen so far with decent audio levels even the ads are too quiet now but I can still hear the video just fine

Another outstanding project. Thanks again for the ideas. Very much appreciated

This could be used for so many other things as well.

I knew you were good but DAMN, I never thought about you being a Fashion Designer. Is there anything you and thay heat gun can't do together? ❤

Wow, again my fellow prop brother. You so talented and skilled. Thanks for all the how to vedios. You inspire me to do more for my Christmas and Halloween decorations this year.

Highly impressed by your skills! Well done!

OMG this looks incredible. I hope I can get the courage to do this before Halloween this year. I’d put it right at my front door.

Great how you did the hair, love to see more on that. Just found you. You explain simply and clearly, appreciate all those details!👍😁Go make stuff! Love it!

Love your content I wish i had the patience and foresight to see the finished product. Amazing Work

You are a master, just found your videos, can’t wait to watch them all, thanks for sharing, love from Canada 🇨🇦

Daymn! 3h build looks fantastic, as well as provided inspirational techniques and methods for projects

For what you spent, and the time invested, excellent.

OMG!!! I love your creativity and videos! I always have wonderful ideas and my husband says "that'll never hold" or "that wont work"!

It's perfect ! Everything you make is awesome!

I have to thank you for showing us the underlay foam trick and the pool noodle trick. We just made some awesome dragon candy chutes with those techniques. It made it sooooo easy!

O.M.GOSH I love you creations!!!

Now this is awesome! Looks like all foam carving from Davis Graveyard but NOT Foam... Awesomeness Thank you! 🎃💀❤️

This is great! If you put it in your yard and are worried about wind, drill holes in the bottoms of the buckets and slide over a t-post. Thank you Alan for another great tutorial!

This looks great! As we have cats, we have a LOT of the buckets that cat litter comes in. I am thinking that using old buckets for the lower torso/skirt area, and one or more square-ish litter buckets for the upper torso would look cool as well. I can see how a shirt or just sleeves over the arms would make the arms look a bit better. Fantastic

You just blew my mind with this build. Well done!

That is an awesome build! Learned several techniques I'd never seen before (heat guns melt (and bond!) a lot of things!) Thank you! 👼

You are exceptionally funny today! I made an angel Christmas tree one year with some of the ideas you had. This gives me more ideas to improve. Your dogs are so cute with your angel. Lol

Finding this video made my day, Thankyou! I’m off to go get some of the materials tomorrow

Thanks for the easy to follow video. Would be great to maybe someday see a walkthrough of one of your haunts.

I've been looking for this for YEARS! THANK YOU!!

You just made my Wednesday! How do you not have a cable TV show with your sense of humor your dogs and everything you do but I'm grateful that you're on KZfaq because I get to see firsthand on how to make stuff this is great I'm going to try to do a Harry Potter vibe more like a Tom Riddle cemetery statue that's a grim reaper for real thanks for the share...

I so enjoyed this. Thanks so much. I need to make Christmas outdoor angels with pretty material. Lots of inspiration. Thanks so much.

I just found your channel. I absolutely love it! Even if I never plan on making a project, i love watching you make it.

I am totally amazed at the results from such a wide range of junk.👍 Of all the monsters and demons out there, it's the weeping angle that creeps me out the most.

Oh dude! That weeping angel gel hair is a work of art on its own!

Consider drilling a hole or two through the mated buckets bottoms to allow rain water to drain out. Great work! Thanks for sharing.

I love it, brother. you are awesome. fast and cheap!

Oh i understand you comment about pleading… I just finished pleading… now that’s a nightmare. Lol. Thanks for sharing your great ideas and skills! V/r Howie

I really like the way you did this under $40 Looks great !! 🦋❤️🦋

We love Doctor Who! Thanks for sharing. Cheers from Toronto, Canada!

Very nice. Weeping Angels are scary AF!!! I remember the first episode they were in and I had nightmares!!!

The hair techniques blew me away! Thanks this solve a huge problem I had for making foam statue busts (heads).

You gotta lot of great ideas. The spray foam I've never experimented with. Talk about fun.

Wow, The HAIR! You are a genius! Thank you, going to make it!😁👍

You are amazing Excellent work!

What a great build design idea! Thanks for always sharing your ideas and techniques. I’ve got to add one of these to our yard haunt this year. 🎃 I was planning on making one with monster mud but this is so much better.

Awesome. My kids had a Dr Who wedding and I made a set of 4 for the grooms cake. I may need to add this to my Halloween decor in their honor

I've been trying for 4 years to make a weeping angel statue. I have a mannequin and a base to attach it to. I couldn't figure out how to "bend" the arms to reach the face or how to carve wings out of the foam I bought. Your buckets with my mannequin top will be perfect, and I never thought of pipe foam to fix the arm problem. You have some great ideas! I want to put a weeping angel in my garden and I think I can do that now! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

I love all your videos!!!

Love the angel… great job on that!

I'm so happy I found your channel 🥰 you're amazing

Great use of everything😁 Love it!

Well done! Very enjoyable video.

Wow, that came out looking real good , the possibilities are endless , like always your work is amazing bro.

Thank you for sharing, I learned so much already and feel so much more confident in making our props! close up on the wings could have been a little more helpful but reading your comments I learned to slow the video down and think I got it. Thank you AGAIN.

Love the subtle reference to Dr Who

I made one of these for my haunt! All I have to say is THANK YOU! It's awesome!

Omgosh I absolutely love this piece!

I was having a bad day, but seeing new a new post definitely made me happy!

Love the hair!

Where have you been my whole life. I have struggled for years to make Halloween props. Have used many of your same methods and substrates but would have been nice to have an instructure make it sound and look so easy for the encouragement and removing the anxiety of certain bound to happen fails. 40 years ago people thought I was crazy attempting these projects until they saw them. Now at 63 I wondered if it was time to give it up until I have just recently caught your videos. The torch can be passed on to my grandkids and then theirs. Thanks, Lynn, Dodge City, KS

I am very impressed. Awesome job...

Thanks so much for building this and showing us! Next....a Tardis!
