Raqrex Art
Приєднався 25 чер 2017
Greetings, Earthlings ✌🏻👽 I'm Raquel. I like to create weird art, hangout with my dog, and play Dungeons & Dragons.
I made a lamp...resin casting my OWN leg!
I hope y'all enjoyed my weird interpretation of the iconic leg lamp from A Christmas Story ☺️
This is definitely one of my favorite projects to date and I COULD NOT have done it without the help of my friends Bianca, Emily, & Emilio, @NicTaylorWoodworking , @StudsonStudio & his amazing voiceover skills, and last but not least @ReynoldsamPlus for sharing a few tips and tricks. A HUGE thank you to all my helpers 💙
Materials used:
Smooth-On Body Double lifecasting silicone rubber
Smooth-On Smooth-Cast 57D is a semi-rigid urethane plastic
Thanks for watching y'all!

Your creative process was great to watch. When the art was lit on fire part of me was disappointed. The other part was delighted. Well done!😊
I adore the perfect toe!!! You are inspiring
Awesome!!!!
Hope you're well!
First time catching your channel, thanks to the link from @BillMakingStuff. What a cool episode, I'll subscribe to catch more. Very detailed, you have a keen eye for creative design and can relate to the process, expectations vs. the commitment to dedicate time and talent, plus the wow factor through the final reveal. Your work is outstanding! Excellent narration, editing, and personality,. Made me want to watch the movie all over again! You have a new fan. I look forward to watching previous episodes. Keep up the good work. Cheers!
Totally killer. Great work!
I wish I knew what I was doing with working with UA-cam I make projects like this and I love doing it!
❤🎉 Love this!! Dig your vibe and channel, glad I followed Jazza’s recommendation to watch all the creators on this Monster Bash list!
And why not? :)
You alive?
Hi, I really like your work. I plan to make this as a gift for my girlfriend. We both love chess and d&d. Can you tell me what type of clay you used?
Been a while since we've seen you. Always love your energy in your videos. Hope you are well.
Awesome project! Just got back from Iceland (So inspired) and now we’re not sure when we will not travel back to Iceland. In fact I’m going back in a month for the Laugavegur.
Ooo... pay respect to that lovely dead bird by filming deterioration, or rather stitching together daily images into a film. Then preserve skeleton within work of art! Ok, maybe that suggestion is a little late (no pun intended), but I've intended to do that twice now but local cats or possums or something snatched the birds corpses too quick (not to say I'm kinda slow or anything, or admit anyway). Anyway, keep being you! 😎
Rock on! Crazy is good - you're not alone. Heck, look at the "normal" folks, they're gone down the road WACKO! For what it's worth, the two most beneficial "therapies" I've found are making stuff and bonding with nature. Thanks for sharing your world along with your cool creations!
So cool !
Bravo for sharing your struggles! Making music and art are my therapy and it helps significantly when my mental health is not at its best. Thank you so much for making this video!
Poseidon has accepted your burnt offering and granted you good fortune.
Think you should have more followers, your a great artist 🤗 funny and have an awesome sense of humor
This seriously made my day - thank you so much 🥲
How many kilograms of clay was used in the making?
…too many lol
Actually not that bad since I made the foil base
@@RaqrexArt would 2 kgs be enough for just the pieces? I'm going to buy depending on that
@@thedollify434 I probably used an entire 1lb bag of super sculpey on the dragon. And maybe half of one on the pieces - but of course the entire set was done in the resin
😭 Promo'SM
Badass
I just discovered you and this is the first video I've watched. Instant subscribe
🥹🥹🥹 Thank you! Welcome!!!
What an enchanting video and process! Great work and stoked you persevered.
Thanks so much friend! I’m also happy I stuck with it 😆
UA-cam is funny, I see your vids pop up and get excited it's a new vid and it's a year old, lol... Still gonna watch it...😁❣️
Haha thanks for watching!!! And yes the mysterious algorithm does stuff like that 🤔
This looks awesome. Turned out great. Taking a break was definitely a great idea by your friends.
Yes indeed! I’m thankful I was able to have a nice holiday break ☺️
I love this
Thank you! 🥰
@@RaqrexArt no problem
I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS WAS POSTED 2 WEEKS AGO AND I MISSED IT.
Hahaha better late than never 😉 Glad you checked it out!
Awesome! It took me twelve minutes to realize that I was also sculpting a foot while watching this video of you making a foot lamp
Ha! Sculpting a foot from scratch sounds like quite the feat…see what I did there 😉
Hey! Nice to see you back! Very fun project, great job.
Thanks Troy!!! 💙
Wow, that turned out great🎉, nice work.
This is such a cool and unique project, I loved seeing the process and problem solving. Looked like a pretty tricky build, but woah it turned out soooooo cool in the end, ugh what a fantastic video! The fact that you couldn't drill through those heels kinda blew my mind haha
Hahaha yes those heels….who would have guessed 😆 And thank you so much I’m so very glad I stuck with it
Impressive - both the amount of work and the result!
Chaos Chaos CHAOS! Love it Raquel!
Well done !!! Congrats on not abandoning and taking your time. Great success there !!!
Such a fun video again! And YES!!! we need more Raqrex epoxie monsters 🤓
Ahhh it's so realistic it's freaking me out in the best way. I'm glad you took your time and finished it in the way you wanted to. I'm glad you're back, I've missed you friend!
Daaawww thank you! I’m hopeful that some changes in my work/living situation should give me more time to create 👩🎨
you did it, be proud :)
Nice video and nice editing 🙂
This is so silly but awesome!! Also I really appreciate that you have subtitles!!
Wonderful works.
For all that want to learn about mould making and casting. Robert Tolone is the ultimate channel in that regard on UA-cam. Imho. www.youtube.com/@RobertTolone/featured
I’ve recently come back to a project that I previously abandoned because it didn’t go at all according to plan. Similar to casting with resin, I cast masks with latex and if the mould I use isn’t watertight then the latex will come pouring out of the bottom. Needless to say it’s quite stressful at times, so I can definitely empathise with you on this project!
Ooofff yeah that sounds stressful as well and potentially costly! I’m happy to hear you circled back to your project - sometimes all you need is to step away for awhile 😊
@@RaqrexArt Is there a particular platform where I can send you photos of projects that I’ve done. Would really like to show you my “Vecna” (Stranger Things) mask that I made from scratch.
@@jameslivingstone8267 oh cool! Shoot me a message on Instagram!
@@RaqrexArt awesome, I’ve sent some photos to you!
We just don't get enough videos like this one these days! So glad you solved that problem! 😝
So glad you did not give up on this project. The finished lamp looks amazing!
The lamp is cool!
Raquel think you are an amazing person and an incrediable artist! I love that you share all of this with us. 😃
Awww thank you so much! I’m so happy to share my art with y’all and it makes me so happy to hear you enjoy it!
I love your knitted santa hat! Where can I get one like it?
My friend gave it to me but I think it’s from American Eagle ☺️
That's amazing!
