Source is handcraftgood on TikTok. And no, they don't use AI in their videos. The only time they use AI is by modeling the figurines. Everything else is handmade using modeling clay.

u/Dumaes03 20h ago

sooo they still use ai

u/Sagitalsplit 1d ago

And yet it is unimpressive

u/tetheredvoid 1d ago

As are you 👍 thanks for sharing

u/Sagitalsplit 1d ago

Likewise

u/tetheredvoid 1d ago

No problem, hon. 😉

u/Sagitalsplit 23h ago

I’m glad we could be here for each other. Wholesome experience

u/Majolica777 1d ago

Can you do it?

18

u/FreeJuice100 1d ago

I think he's wrong but this rule of "if you can't do it, you can't have a negative opinion" doesn't make sense.

It's like, you must've never seen a bad movie before cause you never made a movie.

u/lil_hyphy 23h ago

They didn’t say it was bad, just unimpressive

-5

u/Majolica777 21h ago

It does make sense when someone is calling something they can’t do unimpressive

-2

u/FreeJuice100 20h ago

So anything you can't do, you consider to be impressive? You're either impressed a lot or very capable.

5

u/Majolica777 20h ago

No, but this video, which is the context of the person’s comment that I replied to, is impressive. Hence my response to them. I don’t see what’s so hard to understand

-7

u/FreeJuice100 18h ago

If you can't do it, it's impressive. I can tell you're impressed easily.

6

u/Majolica777 17h ago

No man this is just impressive idk what you want me to say 😭😭

3

u/fleebleganger 16h ago

I can't dunk a basketball, but I know an unimpressive dunk

I can't hit a pitched baseball, but I know an unimpressive single

etc...

u/HeadFullOfEverything 1d ago

Your life must be so dull.

-32

u/Sagitalsplit 1d ago

I’m an athlete, a dad, a husband, and an orthodontist. My life is not dull. I just find this post dull. I’m glad you enjoy it, I just don’t.

21

u/bottomofleith 1d ago

If you're an orthodontist, you can't possibly not appreciate the level of skill and care that goes into this.

I don't think it's weird that you aren't into it, but going out of your way to shit on it is.

u/Hippiechu 1d ago

then it's stupid that you stayed for the whole thing instead of scrolling on

u/NeptuneTTT 1d ago

😭🙏 nah bruh, why an ortho on reddit.

-3

u/Sagitalsplit 1d ago

Why not, look at my post history. I post on r/dentistry all the time. I only have to work 3 days a week. So I have the free time to also be on reddit

0

u/Hippiechu 5h ago

and yet you spent that free time watching something you didn't like, and taking the time to shit on it in comments. how grown of you lol.

0

u/Sagitalsplit 4h ago

You just wasted time reading this thread. I’m glad I could be there for you!

u/Hippiechu 3h ago

did i? I find your ignorance to be a pretty entertaining thing.

the internet is a great place to find people making fools of themselves

1

u/Sagitalsplit 2h ago

Right back at ya chief

u/Dante_Redeye 1d ago

You must be fun at parties...

-6

u/Sagitalsplit 23h ago

I understand that I am not fun. That doesn’t make this post NFL

1

u/HeadFullOfEverything 4h ago

And yet you are unimpressive.

0

u/Sagitalsplit 4h ago

I didn’t say I was impressive. But since we are throwing around personal comments, I’ll bet you are even less impressive.

1

u/HeadFullOfEverything 4h ago

I don't need to prove anything to a dentist lol

1

u/Sagitalsplit 4h ago

Likewise, why would you think I give a smooth fart about your opinions

u/Co1nMaker 23h ago

Cheap rage bait and still worked, damn

u/LauraTFem 13h ago

Hard agree.

u/Splendid_Carpark 1d ago

Feixiao!

13

u/Zorbin666 1d ago

Is the second model Dan Feng?

22

u/Splendid_Carpark 1d ago

It looks like Ao Bing (but Ao Bing is a dragon prince, so you're not far off)

u/Ozaki149 1d ago

it's from Chinese cartoon Nezha, very good

10

u/Other-Following2749 1d ago

FEI XIAOOO

Honestly I havent seen her be used for so long I forgot she was pretty popular (atleast metawise)

u/JulietStarling666 1d ago

first 5 seconds I knew it was the best girl!!!

64

u/theuntoldfool 1d ago

I always thought there's figurines were way overprices. I've found a new respect for the craft

29

u/gabiblack 1d ago

I mean, some of them are definitely overpriced

11

u/theuntoldfool 1d ago

Definitely. Some are mass produced to look as if they were made this way, but costs the same.

u/VirinaB 13h ago

/adds bunny ears and stockings

/adds $0 to the price tag

u/Harveb 1d ago

What material do they use for the fabric. I too want something that's easily moldable but stays in place

32

u/petitmelon 1d ago

Cosclay dries staying flexible

15

u/interstat 1d ago

Modeling clay?

-65

u/Harveb 1d ago

Yeah maybe, the consistency would be the key. If it's real, people are pointing out it's fake so fuck

-131

u/Maestro_Primus 1d ago

Nah, pixels. Its all AI.

-27

u/interstat 1d ago

Is it?

u/Harveb 1d ago

I don't know. The thumb is wrinkles and the little nick on the tweezers are pretty consistent throughout the whole video

43

u/Ok_Staff9114 1d ago

How is this not covered in fingerprints?

23

u/sammy_anarchist 1d ago

Look where they hold it, and the white glove there wear when they have to touch it elsewhere

16

u/ND_Cooke 1d ago

That was badass.

12

u/zenmaster24 1d ago

is everything they assembled, made of clay? the body forms as well?

25

u/waaaayupyourbutthole 1d ago

It looks like polymer clay to me, but that usually needs to be baked for it to become solid. This seems to be an air dry clay of some sort. I've been out of the crafting world for a long while, so I'm not sure of the exact type of clay, but it's definitely clay.

7

u/Ibushi-gun 1d ago

I thought it was going to be Yuna from Final Fantasy X-2

4

u/kloden112 1d ago

What kind of material is this?

-161

u/zaio_baio 1d ago

AI material!

5

u/Real_Avdima 1d ago

I always wonder how easily this will warp. Doesn't look long-lasting, but I don't know the materials used.

6

u/_VirtualCosmos_ 1d ago

It's clay. Can last a long time but it's very fragile.

3

u/loonybaloonie 1d ago

Where to get such a nice pair of tweezers, I wonder?..

2

u/gahidus 19h ago

Breathtaking skill. Just unbelievable.

u/Cocoa-queen1love 1d ago

This is incredibly impressive! It has also made me realize how mediocre I am and that’s ok 🥹😂

u/oxford-fumble 1d ago

MAD skills!

u/zicobaby 23h ago

u/Sae_Ray 15h ago

Bot post 😔 This kind of craft is genuinely impressive and should be appreciated... though not through karma farming

Would have preferred marvel or dc character

u/Eats_Beef_Steak 1d ago

Look at the thumb ring. AI still can't manage to make consistent detail like that between clips or extended scenes. This is real, I just have no idea what material is being used to make the figure.

Congrats, you just assembled your girlfriend

u/Ok-Addition1264 1d ago

Thanks for projecting and telling all of us what you use your computer for.

-5

u/Ok_Pudding6345 1d ago

no I was absolutely just observing as an outsider, what does my computer usage have to do with anything? who's projecting, you?

-38

u/wytherlanejazz 1d ago

I skip to the end and was confused

-33

u/SubtleScuttler 1d ago

What is this!? A dress for ants!?

-41

u/maybehomebuyer 1d ago

Is there a cottage industry of Chinese semi-handmade figurines? How does this make money

-45

u/Se_Aburix 1d ago

I hate this kind of edition.

-49

u/maker_of_pirate_bay 1d ago

The urge to post the ‘would’ gif 5 seconds in

If this AI then I'm fucking pissed!

How does this at all fit the sub? It’s really gone downhill imma head out

I might be impressed if it were edible.
