    This is the FIRST time I am subscribing to a web-site. I must admit that these videos are wonderful.... entertaining as well as instructive in a step-by-step way. At age 66, you are encouraging me (a former accountant) to do something I have wanted to do for the past 30 years.... express my creative side. Thank you.

    I'd love to see a Monster Lab episode on making foam masters out of mother molds and how to make production molds off of those masters. That's something i've wanted to know how to do for awhile, and it's a topic that you don't see covered very often when it comes to tutorials like this.

      Does the clay get hard when creating the plaster mold? Or does it stay soft? And I would love to learn more about painting techniques and what paints you suggest using. I know you've done a video on that, the Alien Zombie but I'd love to see you go deeper into painting the finished product

    Is the latex just regular Halloween store liquid latex or is it a specific latex for making props? All I know is I would definitely like to make some kind of critter with my monster-making skills. Mine are only ceramic monsters for now, I've been wanting to learn how to make this stuff!
