I learned so much in the progress of making this video! And in the posting of this video I learned I can't pronounce 'jaguar' correctly🤦♀🤷♀ Oops! There's a good chance I will never have to pronounce it again on this channel but at least I have gotten 'awl' down now!😄
Oh my dear, I am right there with you! I am from Maine, northeast USA and we say jaguar like jagwahhhhh, nobody understands us and that’s ok with us! We apologize to everybody all the time, but nobody understands our speech up here. It’s all relative.
@Susan Jenssen I love to hear different US accents and locally used terms! Most of my educational years were in the midwest and then I finished up highschool and went to college in the south. I think this made my accent pretty neutral however random sounds and vowel pronunciations pop up every now and then and who know where they are from😄
So I’ve been watching your other videos and I’m wondering how sturdy furniture made with styrofoam board would be? I’m wondering if it could be played with by a child - I still need a kitchen for a dollhouse and I’m wondering if I should just buy one premade.
Lol... such a fun video .... you nailed all the ppl but the Shaman... wow 😍😃 I think I'll be a little sad when all the dolls will be completed but I can hardly wait to see the whole room... you are crah-razy gurl, in the best possible way xxx what a ride 🥰
😄😄 You mean like Beetle-Fall lol!?! I have a few other projects to pay attention to as well, but I am definitely excited to keep going with Beetlejuice videos too!
Thank you Holly!! I will need a little break after the dolls but finishing a room like this really does light the fire of creativity to start working on other rooms too!
Those figures came out really well! I especially love the Shaman - he could have walked right out of the movie. That room is really wonderful. It may be my favorite of all you have done. Happy September to you!
Hey Vet Tech here... so the heart is actually very central in the chest, however it does hang a little more off to the side. It's easiest to access it if we take off the sternum because that is connected to the ribs by cartilage. There are different types of heart/chest surgery and taking off the sternum is much gentler (The healing time is quicker and easier) than cracking open the ribs. The scene with the shot of adrenaline in Pulp Fiction always bothers me, because he was a little too off and probably would have missed the heart or just grazed the heart... plus a myriad of other issues.
A friend of mine recently had open heart surgery to correct a birth defect. They had to "crack" the ribs and literally open the ribcage like opening an old-fashioned coin purse, so the wide, central opening absolutely makes sense. I'm wondering if the scene in Dr Strange has the needle too far to the left, too.
That scene was meant to be awkward and inaccurate. It gave me pause too and I know almost nothing about medical procedures but I thought it looked off too. Great acting, for sure, that's why it worked. Thanks, Ladyofdeath.
I was just going to say this as my husband just went through this, and in his words (OMG this hurts like hell) so if they went through the ribs it would have been worst I know I have broken my ribs twice and sneezing is the worst thing on this planet let alone having a coughing fits or even laughing.
That makes a lot of sense! I was never good with anatomy but it is firmly burned in my brain from school that the heart is over to the left. It's never too late to learn something new!
This is probably the most interesting miniature collection of dolls in one grouping I have ever seen, it is so exact to the movie look you can't stop staring!
Ara! The Shaman is my FAVORITE doll you’ve ever made! You really inspire me. I had to stop doing minis after l moved and space was an issue and health problems. I sooo want to do it again. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you Robin!! The Shaman is my new favorite too! I hope you are able to find a way to work on minis again but definitely take your time and take care of yourself💖
I do so love your fraggle rock shirt! the reason it's in the centre is because they have to pry the ribs apart first to access the heart. My dad had a triple bypass done last year and that's exactly what happened. what a unique and awesome dolls you made. I love the Shaman!
Both dolls are amazing but I have to say the Shaman is just awesome. The jaguar turned out so well, doesn't look at all like a tiger lol. Yay, the flat guy is going to be there! Of course, I have been waiting for Miss Argentina so onward with Beetlegustember. Love made up words!
I am so glad to hear that! I was thinking 'Tiger' and then my son came in and said, "oh a tiger!"😄 Then I was really doubting! I am so glad you liked how they came out!
Didn’t remember just how many sight gag side characters there were in this movie. I really expected the house and nothing else. It’s becoming so populated! And it’s such a different skill I’m really impressed
The make up artists and costumers did such a great job telling a story with each character just by looking at them! I think that is what has made them so fun to create. If they all looked normal like Adam and Barbara and had to 'story' they would not have been near as fun to make!
I watched the film recently, there is actually a point where beetlejuice points at the shrunken head man and asks the shaman if he did that. I think you're probably correct!
I am interested in hearing Miss Argentina's story. You do such a great job of creating these characters. Then showing us how to do them too. I do know that my husband had his scar in the center of his chest after his Bypass surgery. We would say it looked like a zipper down the middle.
I will be doing some research for Miss Argentina as well and I have heard she has an entire song she sings in the musical! Interesting! I wonder if anyone has ever gotten a zipper tattooed around their scar before? Thank you Debbra😊
You are so incredibly sweet, Ara. I love your consideration of everyone’s feelings. Respectful, creative, kind and funny. I look forward to all your videos. The dolls look AMAZING!!! Warm wishes from Minnesota! ❤️🥰
I try my best to keep this an uplifting and happy space, but some of my projects (because of my style I guess) do enter some sad and dark places so I try to make sure that everyone knows what's coming in case that's not what they are wanting to see. Thank you for your kind words!!😊
Oh, for heart surgery guy, your story reminded me of something I read years ago and would make (I think) a good addition to your self surgery story. Real life Russian surgeon Dr. Leonid Rogozov performed appendix surgery on himself. He was the only medical doctor on a research station in Antarctic in 1961 when he developed appendicitis. He lived and became a bit of a hero in Russia. Dr. Heart heard the story and wanted his share of the spotlight by attempts self performed open heart surgery. Obviously, his self surgery didn’t go well. The new inhabitants of the waitstaff room are amazing! I am so looking forever to Miss. Argentina.
That was one of the stories I read too when I was researching and I was blown away! Exactly.... the pride of Dr. Heart was his down fall. I think self-surgery makes more sense when its literally the ONLY option to save your life... otherwise that's not a great idea! Thank you!
Yeah, that's why they don't let you do that kind of research mission in Antarctica unless you have your appendix out. No one wants a repeat that might have a more tragic outcome.
The Shaman & Heart Surgery guy look great. Now all that's left is Miss Argentina Flatten guy & finally Juno the case worker. In the movie there was a sleeping bag guy with a rattlesnake in it but since there are no more room in the waiting room it still came out incredible. I think you'll have to make Juno's office in a big Diorama in order to turn it into a big neither world office with flatten guy and Juno to have more room. See you next time. :D
Another instant click, and like before watching lol.. I love the backstories you have given these characters, it makes them all so much more than just background characters. Cant we stretch it to Beetletober too?
Thank you for the like!! I love stories and these take so long to make that I just end up thinking about what their back story might have been while I work😄 I am so glad you have enjoyed them too!
Every time I watch you make a new character, I get a new favorite. The current one is the shaman but I love what you did with the heart cavity too. Some of them may not have speaking parts but the waiting room would not be the same without any of them.
You must be SO pleased! The waiting room dolls look incredible. I think the Shaman may be my favorite. That Jaguar headdress looks particularly fantastic.
Ahhhhh! The shaman and the heart patient look great! I love how full the room is becoming now. You did a wonderful job creating the characters Ara! Can't wait for the next one..... Miss Argentina and the Squashed man! Excited! 😆
I think that I'm enjoying seeing the waiting room come together even more than the actual movie. I love the backstories that you have created for each character ❤. You are a talented story teller as will as a great miniature artist.
Thank you so much!! I am really enjoying getting lost in the details of this wild set lol!! I am realizing that while I do love the movie, I think it's the set, lighting, music and vibe of the whole thing that really attracts me to it!
I love your little iron. That's pretty adorable. You can radically speed up the drying time of Apoxie Sculpt. Throw it in the oven at 180 for about an hour. Works great! Adding the Tacky Glue to the edge of the hair net material to stop the string from ripping through is some solid crafting through and through! I love the way that you made the Shaman's grass skirt and neck ornament out of tassel trim. It really looks believable (the little pouch and the Jaguar head are both super cool). Excellent work, Ara! : )
I always thought the heart guy was rather oddly normal especially since the others are so wierd. I like your take as Dr. Heart. I saw the Chicken bone guy as a show off. Not the, "I am eating everything", but more of, "look I can stick a hole chicken in my mouth". This is why he died, because the others couldn't get all the chicken bones out before he died.
Proud of everything you do, but for some reason this one has been the most magical to watch! I am so excited for what’s to come and have loved seeing you absolutely nail this thus far. Keep inspiring 💜
I love that you paint all their nails, I wouldn't be able to stop myself doing it either lol. I adore how much detail and work you put into each and every single character you have so far and I can not wait to see what's next
😄 I just can't help myself when they are already sculpted into the kit! The details have really kept me excited all through this month so I am glad you have been enjoying them all! Thank you!
@@BentleyHouseMinis I don't blame you I would be the exact same 😄 I painted all my Barbie's nails when I was younger and made sure they all had pierced ears when I got a little older as well lol. You're most welcome.
I love love love these two dolls…I thought the last two were my favorite and there wasn’t any way you could top them but you do! I dunno how you do it lol! BRAVO!!! 👏🏻 and I really enjoyed the backstories you gave them too. They’re characters of their own in this house! ❤️❤️❤️
I just lost a very extremely close family member to botched heart ❤️ surgery. 😢😢 I appreciate the warning at the beginning. I watched anyway because I am a fan of Ara's work. But thank you for the warning.
Gosh you are beyond talented honey, I am in the dentist chair as we speak enjoying your work immensely, not even scared of the pain this time 😂😆 Thank you! Seriously though, you are amazing!!
I do know that the "shrunken" head is made by peeling the face off and wrapping it around a coconut... I bought a fake head in Washington state because there's an amazing oddities shop with shrunken heads and mummies that I can't wait to visit again in the future!
Oh yes the medicine man and I get to see a pin-head Beetlejuice? Brilliant, the scene was just too brilliant when it didn't include the witch doctor shrinking his head. The dead patient, well I'm glad that heart surgeries aren't so brutal anymore, a lot happens invasively, via catheter, with probes and balloons, you don't always have to break and open your ribs right away, you really used to have that complete chest opened. But who knows, maybe his doctor was Dr. Nick or Dr. burns ^^ I'm looking forward to your next ideas. Maybe even a sandworm desert in front of the kitchen window? ^^ Keep it up, I always have a lot of fun. ^^
My theory about the “Flat Man”: I think he threw himself in front of a bus. It seems like all of the workers in the underworld committed suicide. Miss Argentina’s wrist, the guy hanging from the noose, Juno’s throat… You can see tire tracks on the “Flat Man”.
Oh my goodness... the waiting room is looking AMAZING 👌 😍 I absolutely love the heart surgery patent, the details were spot on! Your waiting room is filling up fast :D can't wait to see the finished results. BTW... that ticket 🎟 number always made me laugh when watching the movie 🤣
I love your explanation for the shaman. It could have been a simple translation issue. The hunter said, “I’ll give you the shotgun, and you’ll give me a shrunken head.” And the shaman said, “That’s an odd request, but ok.” and gave the hunter a shrunken head. It just happened to be his own.
Lol... such a fun video .... you nailed all the ppl but the Shaman... wow 😍😃 I think I'll be a little sad when all the dolls will be completed but I can hardly wait to see the whole room... you are crah-razy gurl, in the best possible way xxx what a ride 🥰
I love these so much! I hope you will do the green skinned man and the purple skinned one for the waiting room. Mostly I need to know if you have any ideas as to how the Green guy croaked!
This is as usual so cool, I don´t find it gory at all, dose this make me weird? it is life, and not real as we do not know what the after life is really like, except, I am now going to sound so freaky, but before my daughter was born I had an experience. It was a beautiful place, a long bridge led up to a door, where a strong white light shone forth, a man, I think it was my grandfather met me at the bridge, he hugged me. I wanted to stay, but he said no, I had to go back....was this a dream or real???????????I have no Idea. But love what you do.
How interesting! I visited COSI (a science museum in Columbus, Ohio today) and read about the Shuar tribe and why they shrunk heads. They believed their fallen enemies' souls would seek revenge unless they performed the ritual of shrinking the skin of their heads and sewing the mouth shut. They shrunk the heads by filling them with progressively smaller hot rocks, ultimately finishing with sand.
I think I saw a similar display and explanation a long time ago when I was younger but I didn't remember the details. Thank you for explaining a bit more! It is fascinating!
The heart is actually placed in the middle of the chest. Protected by the sternum. Which is right in the middle of the ribs. The reason why it feels to the left, thus becoming popular opinion, is because the aorta is located to the left. This is the main artery which is the main pump line to the rest body. That is why people are more likely to bleed to death when suffering a laceration on the left rather than the right. Because the artery is what gets damaged, the heart keeps pumping blood toward the wound draining the body in seconds. That is why death is not instant as if the laceration was directly in the heart. It’s good to know where the damage is located in case you find yourself helping you know what their chances of survival are and approximately how much time they have.
I think the incision is in the middle because they need to crack the sternum, which is central to the torso. At least, that's what I've gleaned from too many rewarltches of Grey's Anatomy 😂
The Shaman has to be my favorite character. You did an awesome job. Your continuous dialogue just makes me laugh and it's great to just sit back and enjoy the processes in your posts. Again, love this, love you, love your posts and of course, your imagination.
I am so glad you enjoy the talking in my videos. I feel like I talk non stop and there is still other information I could add in if I made the video longer lol!! Thank you so much Pat!
While I am no doctor, I think having the opening in the center rather than where the heart is is the difference between having a lot of free floating ribs vs cutting in half where they are fastened in front? Heck, what do I know, I just had head surgery. 😉 On another note, it is interesting to me that pipe-cleaners will probably live on far beond the existense of pipes? I mean, they are so convenient for hobbyists and model makers, it is as if it was made for that purpose rather than... well, cleaning pipes! 🙂 Oh well.
That makes a lot of sense and several have said it's easier and less painful to go through the sternum. I hadn't thought of that before but I am 100% sure that people use pipe cleaners way more than pipes anymore... especially since society has cut way back on smoking in recent years! One day someone will have to explain what a pipe is to explain where these strange fluffy things came from😄
@@BentleyHouseMinis Hopefully there WILL be a time when smoking is just a bad memory. Wouldn't that be nice. 😅 But yeah, big strides in the last 15 years or so, despite intervention from the big smoke business people. I mean, when I grew up I had a large family, and every event (birthdays, Christmas etc.) we all came togethere one place or another. And my mother, one aunt, one uncle, a grandmother and another grandfather, two of their parents and a few others on and off all smoked and all of them smoked INSIDE! I mean, the living room was like a foggy day at the worst. So not a big fan tbh. 😉 Edit: Why did I go on with a big rant about smoking? The smoking man was... what, TWO videos ago? 😛Anyway, the room is filling up, good job.
My dad had 5 way bypass surgery, after he was home, I stayed with him for a while until he was cleared to shower again. While I was there, he got a phone call, and was extremely emotional after the call. Never saw him cry before. Apparently it was the wife of a guy he was in high school with. His friend had the SAME surgery on the SAME day, but didn't survive the surgery. That kind of surgery changes a person, because you have your heart stopped, and I guess it's like a near death experience. After that my father was a lot more generous with his finances, giving larger gifts at holidays.
The reason the cut is in the center is because the cut goes through the sternum. If the cut was made on the left side it would go through multiple ribs which probably would take longer to heal and harder to get it to heal correctely.
...Ara heart is in middle of the chest xd its christians were teaching its on left but it been debunked around Victorian era if Im not remembering wrong xD
Bentley house minis, our hearts have moved to the center of our cheats. They are no longer on the left side as they once were. Strange ,i know , but thats why the surgery is in the middle of the chest,directly over the heart.
I think in projects like this, where youre recreatin a character, it would be helpful to have an image of the character editied in a corner so rhe viewer has an idea of what youre talking about!
The heart being in the middle is what some people call a "Mandela Effect" since a lot of people remember it being on the left, hence hand placement during the pledge of allegiance, etc...
well yes i know thows gowns and blue socks well got severle of em but with hot glue a haloween mask and a coat hager thare going be rath that go in my trees out side got do a vid of em thats my evil plain fore em got some bat rats and birds sketens that need a tuch up and go out side to will see more and yes i stay out the hasptal to sea your vis and stormy to as post

I always thought the heart guy was rather oddly normal especially since the others are so wierd. I like your take as Dr. Heart. I saw the Chicken bone guy as a show off. Not the, "I am eating everything", but more of, "look I can stick a hole chicken in my mouth". This is why he died, because the others couldn't get all the chicken bones out before he died.
I can totally see that about the Chicken guy... especially with how the bone is lodged in there... he had to be showing off for someone!

I appreciate that!! Thank you😊
Proud of everything you do, but for some reason this one has been the most magical to watch! I am so excited for what’s to come and have loved seeing you absolutely nail this thus far. Keep inspiring 💜
Thank you Rebecca!! It's been such a fun project!😊
I love all the characters, but the Shaman is definitely my favorite! Excellent job on them and the videos.
He's one of my favorites too! Thank you Nancy!
You just don’t realize how happy your videos make me!
Hearing that makes me happy too!!
I love that you paint all their nails, I wouldn't be able to stop myself doing it either lol. I adore how much detail and work you put into each and every single character you have so far and I can not wait to see what's next
😄 I just can't help myself when they are already sculpted into the kit! The details have really kept me excited all through this month so I am glad you have been enjoying them all! Thank you!
@@BentleyHouseMinis I don't blame you I would be the exact same 😄 I painted all my Barbie's nails when I was younger and made sure they all had pierced ears when I got a little older as well lol. You're most welcome.
I love love love these two dolls…I thought the last two were my favorite and there wasn’t any way you could top them but you do! I dunno how you do it lol! BRAVO!!! 👏🏻 and I really enjoyed the backstories you gave them too. They’re characters of their own in this house! ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Jenny!! The backstories are something I have started enjoying immensely and it's becoming a habit lol!
Another great job Ara! I ❤ how the Shaman turned out! So far, he and the Magician's Assistant are my favorites! You really have outdone yourself!
Thank you so much Adrienne!
I've had major surgery myself. Twice. But I'm fine now so....
I finally got a chance to wathch...watch.... amazing!!! Looks absolutely fabulous!!!
I just lost a very extremely close family member to botched heart ❤️ surgery. 😢😢 I appreciate the warning at the beginning. I watched anyway because I am a fan of Ara's work. But thank you for the warning.
You’re amazing!!! Just brightens my day!!
😊 Thank you Della!
Gosh you are beyond talented honey, I am in the dentist chair as we speak enjoying your work immensely, not even scared of the pain this time 😂😆 Thank you!
Seriously though, you are amazing!!
Hope the dentist wasn't watching it over ur shoulder
I hope the dentist went well!! And I happy I could keep you distracted during the appointment ;) Thank you Brandy!
As a huge fan of Beetlejuice, you have NAILED every single doll, Ara. Bravo! 👏👏👏
Aww thank you! That means a lot!
The Shaman, the Smoking Man, Flat Stanley and the Magician's Assistant are my favorites! I keep watching these videos over and over :)
I do know that the "shrunken" head is made by peeling the face off and wrapping it around a coconut... I bought a fake head in Washington state because there's an amazing oddities shop with shrunken heads and mummies that I can't wait to visit again in the future!
And suddenly your user name makes sense 😉 Lol! I remember learning the process at a Ripleys Believe it or Not display. It is really fascinating!
@@BentleyHouseMinis haha it's actually from a video game! Dead Space 😂
Unbelievable! These dolls are awesome! I could watch this series for months! Bring on Beetletember!
Oh yes the medicine man and I get to see a pin-head Beetlejuice? Brilliant, the scene was just too brilliant when it didn't include the witch doctor shrinking his head. The dead patient, well I'm glad that heart surgeries aren't so brutal anymore, a lot happens invasively, via catheter, with probes and balloons, you don't always have to break and open your ribs right away, you really used to have that complete chest opened. But who knows, maybe his doctor was Dr. Nick or Dr. burns ^^ I'm looking forward to your next ideas. Maybe even a sandworm desert in front of the kitchen window? ^^ Keep it up, I always have a lot of fun. ^^
Your detailed work is stunning !!!
...not only the jaguar is fabulous.
My theory about the “Flat Man”:
I think he threw himself in front of a bus.
It seems like all of the workers in the underworld committed suicide. Miss Argentina’s wrist, the guy hanging from the noose, Juno’s throat… You can see tire tracks on the “Flat Man”.
Oh my goodness... the waiting room is looking AMAZING 👌 😍 I absolutely love the heart surgery patent, the details were spot on! Your waiting room is filling up fast :D can't wait to see the finished results. BTW... that ticket 🎟 number always made me laugh when watching the movie 🤣
Can you imagine ever getting a ticket with that number on it lol?? Thank you my friend!!
i Thoroughly enjoyed this one! i think these are my favorite so far and i really enjoyed the history / back stories. Amazing job!!!!!
I’m binge watching your whole beetlejuice videos. Love them. I hope you do more cult classic movies.
I love your explanation for the shaman. It could have been a simple translation issue. The hunter said, “I’ll give you the shotgun, and you’ll give me a shrunken head.” And the shaman said, “That’s an odd request, but ok.” and gave the hunter a shrunken head. It just happened to be his own.
Lol... such a fun video .... you nailed all the ppl but the Shaman... wow 😍😃 I think I'll be a little sad when all the dolls will be completed but I can hardly wait to see the whole room... you are crah-razy gurl, in the best possible way xxx what a ride 🥰
As usual…. Amazing work. So skilled with clay work and painting. Love it!
I love these so much! I hope you will do the green skinned man and the purple skinned one for the waiting room. Mostly I need to know if you have any ideas as to how the Green guy croaked!
This is as usual so cool, I don´t find it gory at all, dose this make me weird? it is life, and not real as we do not know what the after life is really like, except, I am now going to sound so freaky, but before my daughter was born I had an experience. It was a beautiful place, a long bridge led up to a door, where a strong white light shone forth, a man, I think it was my grandfather met me at the bridge, he hugged me. I wanted to stay, but he said no, I had to go back....was this a dream or real???????????I have no Idea. But love what you do.
Self surgery is crazy!!!!
Agreed! Some of them were done out of necessity which I understand... but some were not👀
@@BentleyHouseMinis fascinating! I’m so excited for Miss Argentina
How interesting! I visited COSI (a science museum in Columbus, Ohio today) and read about the Shuar tribe and why they shrunk heads. They believed their fallen enemies' souls would seek revenge unless they performed the ritual of shrinking the skin of their heads and sewing the mouth shut. They shrunk the heads by filling them with progressively smaller hot rocks, ultimately finishing with sand.
I think I saw a similar display and explanation a long time ago when I was younger but I didn't remember the details. Thank you for explaining a bit more! It is fascinating!
The heart is actually placed in the middle of the chest. Protected by the sternum. Which is right in the middle of the ribs. The reason why it feels to the left, thus becoming popular opinion, is because the aorta is located to the left. This is the main artery which is the main pump line to the rest body. That is why people are more likely to bleed to death when suffering a laceration on the left rather than the right. Because the artery is what gets damaged, the heart keeps pumping blood toward the wound draining the body in seconds. That is why death is not instant as if the laceration was directly in the heart. It’s good to know where the damage is located in case you find yourself helping you know what their chances of survival are and approximately how much time they have.
I think the incision is in the middle because they need to crack the sternum, which is central to the torso. At least, that's what I've gleaned from too many rewarltches of Grey's Anatomy 😂
The open heart surgery guy was cool. I think it’s silly that people have to in some way or another apologize for their craft. Awesome dolls though.
The Shaman has to be my favorite character. You did an awesome job. Your continuous dialogue just makes me laugh and it's great to just sit back and enjoy the processes in your posts. Again, love this, love you, love your posts and of course, your imagination.
I am so glad you enjoy the talking in my videos. I feel like I talk non stop and there is still other information I could add in if I made the video longer lol!! Thank you so much Pat!
While I am no doctor, I think having the opening in the center rather than where the heart is is the difference between having a lot of free floating ribs vs cutting in half where they are fastened in front? Heck, what do I know, I just had head surgery. 😉
On another note, it is interesting to me that pipe-cleaners will probably live on far beond the existense of pipes? I mean, they are so convenient for hobbyists and model makers, it is as if it was made for that purpose rather than... well, cleaning pipes! 🙂
Oh well.
That makes a lot of sense and several have said it's easier and less painful to go through the sternum. I hadn't thought of that before but I am 100% sure that people use pipe cleaners way more than pipes anymore... especially since society has cut way back on smoking in recent years! One day someone will have to explain what a pipe is to explain where these strange fluffy things came from😄
@@BentleyHouseMinis Hopefully there WILL be a time when smoking is just a bad memory. Wouldn't that be nice. 😅
But yeah, big strides in the last 15 years or so, despite intervention from the big smoke business people.
I mean, when I grew up I had a large family, and every event (birthdays, Christmas etc.) we all came togethere one place or another. And my mother, one aunt, one uncle, a grandmother and another grandfather, two of their parents and a few others on and off all smoked and all of them smoked INSIDE! I mean, the living room was like a foggy day at the worst. So not a big fan tbh. 😉
Edit: Why did I go on with a big rant about smoking? The smoking man was... what, TWO videos ago? 😛Anyway, the room is filling up, good job.
This looks amazing, you always below these guys out of the water, they look amazing.. can't wait for the next one. Have a great weekend.
My dad had 5 way bypass surgery, after he was home, I stayed with him for a while until he was cleared to shower again. While I was there, he got a phone call, and was extremely emotional after the call. Never saw him cry before. Apparently it was the wife of a guy he was in high school with. His friend had the SAME surgery on the SAME day, but didn't survive the surgery. That kind of surgery changes a person, because you have your heart stopped, and I guess it's like a near death experience. After that my father was a lot more generous with his finances, giving larger gifts at holidays.
The reason the cut is in the center is because the cut goes through the sternum. If the cut was made on the left side it would go through multiple ribs which probably would take longer to heal and harder to get it to heal correctely.
The reason the opening is in the middle for open heart surgery. Is because that's were you have to open the ribcage.
...Ara heart is in middle of the chest xd its christians were teaching its on left but it been debunked around Victorian era if Im not remembering wrong xD
The Shaman (? Spelling) turned out fabulous
I really wonder what killed the shaman. He is in the waiting room for the last joke to shrink Beetlejuice's head but why is he here?
Bentley house minis, our hearts have moved to the center of our cheats. They are no longer on the left side as they once were. Strange ,i know , but thats why the surgery is in the middle of the chest,directly over the heart.
Fantastic! And I love your Fraggle Rock T-shirt.
I think in projects like this, where youre recreatin a character, it would be helpful to have an image of the character editied in a corner so rhe viewer has an idea of what youre talking about!
Yay, just in time for my birthday! Can’t wait to see how the Witch Doctor turned out. Have a great day!
Happy Birthday 🎂
Happy Birthday Stephanie!! Have a fantastic one!
Happy birthday!
I can't wait to see how you did the Shaman!
The heart being in the middle is what some people call a "Mandela Effect" since a lot of people remember it being on the left, hence hand placement during the pledge of allegiance, etc...
I am so glad you did the research on the Shaman! So much better to know the culture and everything else!
Beetlegustimber-ton! It looks so good. I can wait to see Miss Argentina!
I love this so much! You did awesome on all the characters. You are so talented!!
Its amazing how much detail u get into all these characters, they turned out fantastic!
Thank u. I am going to watch bettle juice again and take note of all the bits u have made. Thank u
The incision is in the centre because they have to cut the ribs off the sternum to allow access to the heart.
This is so much fun. Your interpretations of the characters are perfect. 🌸
oh my gosh these are incridible, that shaman, the whole thing, the jaguar, cannot believe it's toilet paper
Great info! 👍 can't wait for Miss Argentina!!!!
Love the dolls you make my day every time I watch you create the caricature lots of love ella x
