Bless his heart! He really looks like he's been through a few things!
Florence Blocker
WOW, awesome!
Cora Kathlea
this was amazing, and the song at the end completely caught me off gaurd lol
Dawn Hutchins
Fantastic as ever. Always amazed at the details. Great job ๐๐ผ
Dacia Poissant
there's a medium called Flow Aid that doesn't break down paint pigment, and uses surface tension. Instead of water, which breaks down pigment, flow aid will get into the crevices without having to do multiple layers to get the vibrancy you want.
Crystal
I loved this video so much! Well I love all of them to be honest. I find them so relaxing and inspiring!
Jessica Irons
Your attention to detail and ability to remain steadfast at putting your best forward through long, tedious portions of projects amazes me! You have some of the best patience Iโve ever seen and it seems like you donโt ever get frustrated and try to rush the process. Makes your final products truly, truly AMAZING! I think this is one of the marks of your work- amazing detail! I remember always wanting to find someone who incorporated both elements of whimsy, light, and magic, with the dark and seductive macabre side. Finding you as a human and artist has been truly inspirational and just what I was looking for. So great to find someone who finds greatness in similar things! Beautiful skeleton. Mr. Bones?? Donโt forget to watch Silly Symphony- Skeleton Dance (short film from 1929) as our season approaches!!!! ๐โ ๏ธ
Kitty Lang
I Loved this video so much. Everything is so creative, the set, amazing music and beautiful skeleton!
Heidi Bartle
What is this reveal music? Is this skeleton porn?! lol Amazing looking.
Gavin Rodgers

Corinna
I told my hubbers u know what to get me for Christmas ๐ ๐
Sarah Rodriguez
Wow! AmaZing I want to try this project! ๐
Anna Wilson
Thank you Christine! Your content is always so entertaining and immersive, it gets me out of my head for awhile and have been very inspired for my own art on many occasions. I look forward to each and every video.
Tanya Hermann
Wow, that skeleton turned out great! When you were working on the skull so diligently, I thought immediately how well you would have done working at a funeral home prepping the departed for viewings (not the teeth breaking part, the painting of the skullโฆ.ie makeup).
Elizabeth Stanziano
My god... I save my cat's hair too! and her whiskers that fall. I can't bring myself to throw them away! I'm glad to see you do the same lol
Chelsea Barrera
this turned out amazing! it looks so realistic like it rotted away in a forgotten cave
Mathew Grigsby
LOVED THIS EPISODE! My excitement for Halloween just skyrocketed. Time to make all of the things!
Desiree Coon
I think itโs safe to say in this group we are always ready for a Halloween project! So glad to see some of these kind of projects again.. Grant does amazing work with filming and the music!
Sam Hussey
The end music and poses๐น๐น๐
Sam Hussey
THIS is making me so excited for Halloween and we have new hocus pocus the end of September ๐๐๐
Siren Joy
I so miss starting the 3 nights a week as the "decorating committee" in the end of July for my families annual Samhain Parties. I have inherited a small portion of the Halloween decor and added to it every year. I just put in this year's additions order of, fire quartz, sun stone, black obsidian, labordorite, cream jade and crazy lace agate carved pumpkins, cats with witches hats and ghosts.
Noni
Love it.
Kimberly H.
Seeing the completed skeleton, I immediately thought it looked like Eustice from Courage the Cowardly Dog show ๐
Jess Meister
Lmao ๐คฃ
Jess Meister
That is just the cutest, what a handsome guy! What is his name?
David Mounce
SO Amazing! I super love all your stuff! Love the Skin-a-max music for his sexy pose. Def gives me the Burt Reynolds Cosmo centerfold vibes.
Theresa Clay
The ghosts in your house must watch you like "What the heck is this chick up to now???" LOL!!
Arran MacFae
You should name the Skeleton Stirling
mrb
As always, this was so creative and informative
Victoria Elsom
Did you know that the reason department store skeletons are smaller than an actual real skeleton is so that you canโt actually blend in a real one? I was just noticing that this medical skeleton is pretty close to โRealโ size
Victoria Elsom
Oh he turned out beautifully! I have corpsed some cheaper skeletons but am never quite satisfied with the results. I think I may order one of these and try this out. As usual you are an inspiration. Thank you!
Courtney Cashon
Looove this!! Loved his 'sexy' pose at the end! ๐ Poof's hair really added character!!
Andrew Ryan
I hope that one day if you guys move or when youโre getting on in years you will brick him up in one of the walls so you give the homeโs future caretakers quite the scare should they renovate ๐
Danielle Gutierrez
When is your Orthodontist Practice opening Christine ๐ where do we patients sign up?๐ Loved this video! And the Attic decor is to die for!๐๐ค๐ฆ๐๐ค
Duane Santos
I wont do it for a whole skeleton, but I for sure wanna do it for a cranium
Anne Colitsas
So pumped when I saw the notification for this! I got up early before my kids with coffee in hand!
Racheal Jones
The powder layer really added something! He looks great. What is his name? (P.S. The Poof hair is genius, really shows up in the light.)
Auobunny
Love it!!!
Christina Rodriguez
I love him! I'd also definitely let him sit in my house year-round. :)
Disco Pickle
The camera and lighting quality look incredible! Did you upgrade your equipment recently?
Allison Pagano-Speers
I will never look at a bloominโ onion the same way ๐

Jennifer Faria
He went all George Costanza on us ๐ ๐
Gincredible
I mean, people have described the sexy pose all manner of ways here, but itโs just BEGGING for a creepy Burt Reynolds recreation.
Amy
100% love that set and the skeleton looks fantastic - the hair was such a great touch, especially with the light behind it. Epic!
Kris
Oh wow, nice jump start on Halloween projects. love your attic work area!
Deborah Wiltshire Whaley
What fun! I would keep him out always! I have a Madame Blanche ghost doll that I keep out I change her from room to room! My friends love her and even invite her to go on their boats with them! I think she would love a skeleton companion !
Michelle Lofthouse
The set you created for this episode is exquisite! I love the peak in the attic with the brick wall as a backdrop. It glows from beneath like there might be a cauldron brewing somewhere behind you. The clocks add magic as well as the bat prints and Victorian lamps. Is that a vintage carousel horse? Just beautiful!
Misty Everett
Oh my gosh! You make my spookylicious little heart so happy! ๐๐
Anna Radaelli
He is one sexy skeleton!!!
Emily Schwall
Your Google search history after this project would terrifying anyone who doesn't know what you do ๐คฃ
Doreena Clark
Yay!!! VERY COOL!! =D
Letha Anderson
OMG - I love it!
Tammy R Dowden
He looks great! I love that he was feeling 'sassy' there at the end!
Aunt Debbie Halloween
He looks SO much better now that he's a little rotten ! As always, I love your videos - I can leave my stressful life and be transported to a beautiful and elegant spooky manor where anything can happen...
Tammy Warner
This is another amazing project! I have a similar skelly that rides in my hearse with me. Talk about the looks I get. I've had him a few years now... It may be time for a creepy makeover! I did learn something about these skeletons... The plastic does reshape itself over time if left in warm places like cars left in the sun or hot summertime attics. Mine now looks like he had childhood polio from sitting in the hearse. Just something to consider if wanting to pose him in a warm place.
Janeen
Well done indeed! ๐โ ๏ธ๐โ ๏ธ
Molly
The end music ๐ *chefs kiss*
Craig Bornstein
That ending got me good. More saucy skeletons please ๐ค
Dora Villanueva
Amazing! ๐๐๐
Janette Perez
That music with the last pose at the end was hilarious.
Charlotte Gautier
haha he was feeling saucy at the end! ๐คฃ
Alisha Frank
Its never too early for halloween!! He came out great!!! And the "draw me like one of your French girl" pose is how my roommate found my old skeleton in his bed one October with a sign that read "I can be your bone daddy". Hearing that music and seeing your new friend in that pose brought me right back to that little pank haha
Michelle Lofthouse
He looks SO real!....and so relaxed! Love the music and the ambient blue lighting at the end. I see Professor P is enjoying his new fluorescent green worm toy. We love ours too! Thanks for another great and inspiring episode!
Mji X
New color: ESSE Tooth Enamel
Brandy Parker
The groans, sighs, and hisses at 20:15 had me on the floor!!
Carol Blum
Loved this episode! Not a really difficult project.
Paul and Lynne
Great! He turned out so real looking! Now pose him in your Caddy and cruise around town.
Bobby Champlin
That was fantastic! I bought a plastic skeleton a few years back, not as nice as that one, but it will still do. I can't wait to try this out!! Thank you!
Tim Metcalf
Loved this! He's so cool and I will be trying this myself for sure!
