I made a BOOTLEG figure. (More like "kitbashed".) | How To Make A Custom Action Figures

- Here's how I made a kitbashed figure, using cheap or broken figures.
I talk about the terminology of bootleg, kitbashing, and all that. Interchangeable words type situation.
I made the music using sample packs I purchased, mixed together in a program called Reaper.

My family and I are so grateful that I get to do this.
“Adolescent radio active martial artist tortoise, made in Mexico.” I’m gonna laugh about this for days. Love you Crafsman!
LMBO I lost it when he said that dude. Crafsman, you da man.
Adolescent Radioactive Blackbelt Hamsters was a halfway decent parody comic back in the day. Think he has some in his library
This was the best hahaha!
Got to stop watching your videos in the middle of our German nights. Keep waking up the kids lolling around n stuff. We love you crafsman
Fulkrum ! I love how he said it can basically be a meme format
I honestly can’t stop thinking about Boba Frett and Boba Threat
He play song, he attac
But most importantly
He have battle axe
YES Please, 8:47 do a video about the Various Resin types out there. thank you in advance.
That would be helpful! And casting / coloring rubber parts too.
I agree, I've been trying to figure out which resin to make jewelry with. I've been using EnviroTex Pour-On. Sometimes it stays sort of soft, no matter how accurate I try to be with pouring weight and mixing, it's just never consistent for me.
Agreed. This would be stellar.
Oh yes this would be so helpful. 👍
Yeah, please do
Boba Fett from Jaba's Palace and Boba Fett from Planet Fitness, LOL, HA, HA, HA!! I just lost it!
Victor Vazquez haha me too!
This stuff would be really interesting on its own, but the character and the jokes and the overall style are such a nice bonus that I think I'd watch this even if I had no interest in art.
It's simple
I see the crafsman, I smile!
Awwwright
Aww snap that's cooool
*This Ed Harris action Figure*
I did a double take and laughed pretty hard. Love this channel.
One of many gems in this and all of Crafsman's videos!
That made me almost spit my iced tea
@@xeokym223 I totally did a spit take on that one :D
@@xeokym223 Crafsman has made me spit more coffee than anyone else ever. Surprised my keyboard still 2ldix.
@@matambale 🤣😂
This is lovely and so respectful to old figures! Doctor Frankenstein wished he had some of the art you have for mixing and matching
Oh man yes! I've actually been making custom figures for a long time. Kitbashing has a whole community on sites like FigureRealm, its a great resource for beginners looking for tutorials.
50percentJoe same here. I should do some of that for my custom Warhammer 40k stuff that I do
Same hobbies here, but I also put in a lot of discarded materials into mine 😀 it's a really fun thing to do! You're only limited by your imagination! 👍
“But instead she comes back with Radioactive Martial Arts Tortoises made in Mexico”
I’m finally back to catching the Crafsman as his uploads occur! 💕
Your wooden guy is downright sweet!
Crafsman is a national treasure, protect and cherish this icon that vibes on the level of Mr Rogers
True that!
You are (in my view) the most inspiring person if ever seen
“MC Hammerhead For Bounties” 😁turned out amazing Craftsman! Dope video as always my man! Thank you sir 🙏🏼
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! It's one thing seeing people make these things online. It's another when the Crafsman teaches us how. You, sir, are awesome. Oh, & we love you too!
I think methods like kit bashing and your method of mixing and matching is the kind of inspiration we need now and days thanks for making this video I really enjoyed watching you make a Frankenstein figure.
This right here is high quality entertainment.
I'd be super keen to hear about different resins! For ages, I would get down on myself when I started to do any craft because I felt like I needed a big outcome (eg to sell my art etc) for it to be worthwhile. With every video, you remind me that the joy of crafting is the only outcome that is required. Thank you!
Now this right here is a wonderful comment that I take to heart.
My son came to me to tell me all about this awesome channel he found. Turns out we both love the craftsman! It was a great moment!
The Crafsman fans are so welcoming!! So happy to stand with them! ❤️❤️❤️
Y'all really are! Thank you!
TheCrafsMan SteadyCraftin
:D ❤️❤️❤️ this just made my day!!
I love your videos and your music crafs man! Can you please do a video on how you make your music!?!!?!?
the music he uses in his videos is so enjoyable. I didn't know he made it.
I second this
I was literally about to comment that
Thank y'all for the suggestion! I have to say, there's not TOO much to it - I just have these sample libraries I've purchased over the years, which I put together in my audio program, "Reaper".
The libraries used in this video are "Vintage 70's Breakbeats" and "Stranger Synths". In previous videos, I've used Commodore 64 and Nintendo samples. :)
@@TheCrafsMan your music rules crafsman, if you ever release an album on bandcamp i will buy it
I loved the adolescent radioactive ratial arts tortise toys .
Yup. Made me snort. 😂🤣😂 I love me some Crafsman.
I had the whole set. Read somewhere they're going to reissue soon.
Oh yeah, I love those guys!...way better than the original! lol
The only problem with Craftsman's videos is that his voice is so soothing and perfect to fall asleep to, but you can't just not pay full attention to the video because they're all wonderful and engaging
The most wholesome channel on youtube by far. The story behind the figure he made speaks volumes to the crafsmans character. Godd bless you Crafsman.
Your music is the best Crafsman. I would 100% buy an album if you made one
Idk why, but when you went into a tangent talking about your friend "Futon," that had me crackin up!
This time, I was wiiiiise enough not to be drinking coffee while you were speaking.
Excellent work Crafsman.
That's always true.
Shout out to the little spider
Every "hello" is a gift.
Hey Crafsman, just wanted to let you know you inspired me to try needle felting and I love it! I've also been on a general crafting kick since I found your channel, doing various types of craft kits as well as more of my main hobby, nail art. You've really inspired me. Thank you. ❤️
Too awesome, I’m glad you didn’t cut into that Boba Fett. I was surprised when you said you were going to use it for parts, but then I figured anything the Crafsman does is going to be art, so I was cool with it.
Another awesome video tutorial! Here’s a bit of Star Wars nerd lore: the hammerheads (Ithorians) have a mouth on both sides of their heads, so they talk in stereo. That matches up with your kitbashed concept pretty well. BTW I also was digging your musical score in this one. Keep them coming Crafsman.
Kitbash is so fun. I used to make loads of top heavy mechs that had real skinny legs, and ones that would need parts from another model. really fun stuff :)
Hey The Crafsman, you make me smile. Thank you for that
Crafsman, I love everything about your videos, but my favorite parts are your humor. "Ed Harris action figure" made me so happy.
Your personality is so likeable Crafsman! I would never unsubscribe! And I would love to see more videos of figure making!
Oh man I just found your channel the other day and subbed but this video, right here, is my favorite for 2019!! Your sense of humor is awesome. Please keep making great videos like this.
Hello CrafsMan, I'm so happy I stumbled upon your videos a while back. I really like how your delivering your content with so much enthusiasm and kindness. Your videos have never failed to make me smile. Thank you for all the lessons. I hope that you're doing well!
I find myself smiling and smiling and smiling at the Crafsmans’s adventures. Face even cramps up. That’s a sign (to me) of something quite special.
Crafsman, the world inside your head is a lovely place. Thanks for inviting us to visit awhile 😁
The more pockets you have, the more action figures you can bring along to play with.
yes that is my policy, also. ;)
Crafsman, you make me smile the deepest smiles. I love you and everything you do.
Listening to TheCrafsMan is the most soothing, inspiring thing to happen to craft tutorials in ages. He's like the ASMR Bob Ross of crafting. He just gently encourages you to do All The Things and it's chill if you don't have a clue what you'll make going in. Thanks for fueling my crafting habits, CrafsMan.
My heart jumped out of my chest when that black suit Adventure People alien dude came on screen! I had that growing up but never knew where it came from! It's like seeing one of my oldest friends again. THANK YOU CRAFSMAN!!
This put the biggest smile on my face. I'm gonna go kitbash me some figures!
Glad to hear it, my friend!
This is seriously the best thing ever. I don’t think I’ve enjoyed a UA-cam channel more than this one 👌
Art. Pure art. It actually makes me emotional.
I wish you could do a workshop tour, or a long video showing off all your collections (20-30 min long). I've seen all your videos, when I stumbled across the channel I immediately became obsessed lol. I've watched the one where you talk about some things you like but I could've kept watching for hours. Thank you for the clean friendly content ❤❤❤
So glad you like my videos! :D Thanks also for the suggestion!
These videos always make me unbelievably happy. Thank you CrafsMan, you always brighten up my day. 👍
I loved Ed Harris in Empire!
That little Hello at 1:32 gave me a huge boost of Serotonin
“M.C. Hammerhead Hunter for Bounties”
BEST
CUSTOM
EVER
Thank you for this Crafsman!🙏🙏🙏
personally, i don’t mind the music either way, ur crafts are still awesome! 🙌
This is the funniest video I’ve seen in a while!! Great job!!
We love you too, crafsman! ❤️
You are the best!
I haven't been subscribed long but I've watched every video and read a lot of comments and I've never seen a single hate comment! This community you've crafted is so amazing and finding this channel is like finding an oasis in the UA-cam desert. Keep doing what you love!
"Extra kick." That joke is everything.
Just when i most needed inspiration to get up and make something!!! Thank you Crafsman!
Hahah Crafsman, remember how COOL we thought those 90s figures were? First of all that was the first time Toys R Us did a midnight opening, that was like "yes, we get that adults like toys too, here you go." And we were like "whoooaoaaa, they’re all action looking, so much better than the originals!!!!!”. Of course now, we don’t have that same feeling...
Recently stumbled into this channel while looking into how to make your own toys and action figures. While your videos aren't exactly what I was looking for (more along the lines of a figma action figure that I'd model and 3d print myself), I have to say I utterly adore this channel and you've earnt a subscription from me.
Keep doing what you're doing and being a positive force on the world! Much love.
Thanks so much for this delightful comment. I really take it to heart! Also, I wish you the best in making your own action figures! :D
Possibly the best kitbashing example I’ve seen
If I wasn't already a subscriber, this video would have made me hit that button in a millisecond.
Your videos are exactly what I didn't know that I wanted. Thank you so much for being soft spoken, positive, and brilliant.
Your videos are absolutely the most fun! Plus, I get to learn stuff!
I love this! The Hammerhead is one of my favorite aliens and this kitbash is so satisfying!
Okay.
You got me with "Nub nub, not war".
Subbed.
I got some Kraftwerk vibes from your music in this one, Crafsman. Excellent video as always. Did you get to keep the Fred's basket as a souvenir from their liquidation?
A video about the different types of resins wouldn't be a bad idea at all! I'd love it!
Thank you for the feedback!
Your videos always make my day.
Absolutely loved the final figure!!
0:36 the way you said, "you see that?" made me smile.
I've legit watched this 5 times over the years. Such a good episode. Keep on Steadycraftin Crafsman
Showing your research on types of resins would be awesome :) Great videos as always!
Great video, and yes PLEASE, I would personally LOVE to see your take on different materials/ plastics/ resins to use for pouring into molds like this! :D And for that matter, if you know of low-cost alternative to pouring materials and/or poured mold-making materials that'd alternatives to the poured silicone, that'd be fantastic, too.
In the meantime, can't wait wait to see whatever you do next. Always a pleasure watching your videos. :)
You are hands down the most inspiring person on all of UA-cam 🤜💥🤛
Random fortune cookie in the shot😂One of my favorite present, was getting that little boat, with the van, motorcycle plus parachute for the action figure ❗👍✌️
Craftsman do you have an address where I can send you some things I have left from my dental lab that closed down?
Willa Herrera check his unboxing vids I think there’s a PO Box
From the daughter of a dentist...you are giving him a goldmine! My dad was an old=fashioned dentist, and did a lot of his own labwork. I think my nieces have my dad's old tools. I'd love to have them!!!
Yeah he has a PO Box. Email him
I like your video idea, dewit!
Also you should consider replacing the canisters on the back of MC Hammerhead Hunter with a turntable looking device.
LaResistance or some speakers
This was an uproarious romp of retrofitting rejuvenation!
Love Mc Hammerhead Hunter of Bounties
I always kitbashed my G.I. Joe and StarWars figures when they broke. They were some of my favorite ones to play with.
Keep doin you. And keep steady craftin' Crafsman.
We love you, Crafsman! Awesome video.
Having watched many of your videos, I have a feeling you're a Star Wars fan :P
Got my laughing with the free range chicken "action figure". You're awesome brother.
Your voice and speech cadence is like meditation. Awesome show.
Oh lordy. I love all your videos but this one may be the one most relevant to my interests. I love this to death! And it'll go so well with the other things you've showed us how to do.
Please do a resin video! I want to pour shoe soles, any ideas about that?
Thanks for the feedback! You talking about the squishy-squish inserts? I've used some really soft materials before, like Smooth-On Eco Flex 30 and Smooth-On Dragon Skin. I'm not sure how long they would hold up in a shoe, but they are fairly resilient.
@@TheCrafsMan i was more talking about outside of the shoe, the really tough but flexible bottoms. For costumes and stuff, mostly.
Please make a run of MC Hammerhead Hunter figures I will buy one. I love you keep steadycraftin.
MC Hammerhead is my spirit animal. You the man, Craftsman.
You bless us with your videos Crafsman. Sitting in bed with my wife and kids binge watching you steady crafting.
Here for the voice
Stayed for the action
5:46 That escalated quickly
The beat and music in the background was absolutely fantastic
It's so hard to learn anything from your videos... They always relax me into a sleep, lol. I'm just kidding. I love your videos so much! The world needs more people like you.
Amazing video dude! Nice job.
Btw, using LEGO to make the mold itself is really smart lol.
Anyone else incorporate Crafsman whisper voice into craftime?
two most common quotes:
1) Awwwwright
and
2) What's this mess right here?
Thank you for making this, I'm working on a project just like, this for the first time, and having a guide this clear (and soothing) means the world to me.
I'd love to see other resins of different malleability.
Glad you enjoyed it! :D Thanks for the kind comment. Also, did you see the link at the end of this video, where I linked to the resin comparisons? I think you'll find it useful. :)
@@TheCrafsMan In my haste to watch more videos, I think I skipped the ending. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction! :)
Yes. Please do a resin rundown video.
Hey Crafsman that spider looks like a tick, be careful my man!
Nick K it’s not
I think he would look really great with a custom paint scheme to help him look even more different than the figures you parted him out from. Keep up the awesome work!
I thought about painting him (and even decided on a paint scheme) but reconsidered because of the original email mentioning not painting. So I just kept it to as-is parts. But I almost want to make a 2nd one and paint him (matching pockets, for example) to see how it turns out. :)
@@TheCrafsMan Have you ever considered making custom cardbacks for displaying your own action figures? That would be a really cool video!
I really like the music you made. It fits your channel really well. It has an upbeat 80s feeling. Its optimistic, hopeful and encouraging, like you Crafsman.
Even the spider loves the Crafsman
