Making Up MY OWN Nightmare Character 'The Red Lady' - Polymer Clay Tutorial 

Don't forget to grab your Mutant Merch!! Available for a limited time only here: bit.ly/3wpIKrD What did you think of The Red Lady?? Let me know! Check me out on IG and Twitter: @aceofclay

I NEED to know her origin story. I feel like she definitely deserves a "before the mutation" figure

i think it would be interesting if you made you a little nightmares kid as the protagonist that has to deal with them

13:52 i noticed that in this shot, the clay softener makes her look like her mask is crying, which would make sense for her character because she's very vain and clearly does not like that she has become a horrifying monster. just something i felt like pointing out.

I love how we got slowly from "it's just a guy who is cleaning corpses" and "this guy may kill you but only if you scared him" to THIS.

The red lady be like "I don't mind being a monster... but I need to fix my face before I eat people" XD

I'm baCk agaiN Achievement Unlocked: Paint the roses red Find the hidden character, the 'Red Lady'

Thematically, she's quite similar to the Lady from Little Nightmares (vanity, hiding a disfigured face under a mask), but she's different enough to stand as a character of her own. Good job!

You inspire me so much. I’m making figurines for a friends wedding. I’ve been using tips and tricks I learnt from watching you!!! Thank you

I would love to see a survival horror game using these characters called "Heart of Clay" or something like that. I know it is based on little nightmares, but still

You should make a book with all of your characters and their lore!!

She looks really cool in a medusa kind of way. Can't wait to see your next character that you create.

This makes me think you could easily make a character that sells masks to vein women, saying that it would grant them beauty. Once putting on the mask it would stick to their face, melt onto them, and spread, transforming their bodies slowly into beautiful yet lifeless china dolls. You could say the red lady was one of these victims but the mother or some other entity saw the evil in her and chose to turn her into what she is. This character could be called the artist, or the doll maker, or maybe the makeup artist? I’m not too sure 🤷🏻‍♀️ just an idea, but one I feel would work in this universe you’ve created.

This weeks mutant: the World's Most Insecure Tube of Flesh. Im gonna b real, this design is more than incredible and oh god does this series just keep on getting better. If friday wasnt my favorite day before, it is now.

Video idea: The dentist

The more this series continues the more of a modern German fairy tale it becomes

I know Little Nightmares 3 may not happen, but if he keeps creating marvelous sculptures, then Little Nightmares 3 would probably happen

Words cannot describe how much I love this series😍♥️

You know it's been a week when you see that another sculpting video has been published. Two things may happen, either time goes by too fast or this guy is incredibly productive. Love it

The fact that she not only tries to hide her disfigurement with a mask but attacks through mirrors I admittedly find a very interesting character trait for the Red Lady. It somehow adds to just how vain she is in my opinion. :D

Now that this (apparently has seasons) Someone: hey what’s your favorite anime Me: *shows this series*

Pause, buy shirt, resume video lol Congrats on 500K! It's well deserved, Anthony!

I love how almost all of them have the same skin color, implying that they’re all cut from the same cloth! Delightful, absolutely delightful!

“Beauty is only skin deep”

I could imagine this in a little nightmares spin-off game Edit: you did an awesome job!

Everybody who sees The Red Lady: “ she has a beautiful long dress!” Me: “snek”

Everyone ignores the photographer. Is is one of my favorites

You should make like a "hero" of this universe who has to save everyone or something like that, but you should do it after you finish making all the mutants, I think that would be cool, also great sculpture

Each one of these little nightmares ocs are basically masterpieces of art. I love every single creature that was made, each one is unique and looks like they could easily be in a little nightmares game. While I think they are unbelievably perfect I have one issue that has been bothering me for a long while.....all if them have the same looking eyes. In little nightmares each monster had different looking eyes with irises in them, some have really big eyes, others have them covered, others are a bit closed due to deformation from their face, while the eyes really are not the main focus of these creatures and the rest of them is, I still think that it'd be cool if your creatures had different looking eyes. Don't get me wrong though, the eyes are perfection to me, they look just as great as the rest of their bodies, but when the design of them are used with EVERY monster it can be a bit distracting. But dude these are just gripes, what you do is still amazing and I always look forward with the next one. I'm just stating an issue that I personally had for a while and I just wanted to leave it out my chest.

Very cool, man. Your sculpting is so high level and I love how you've started mixing in the story of the characters which helps to break up the video and moves it along in a great way. Nice.

I love how mysterious and cruel the entity seems to be, can’t wait for its sculpture

"she appears through mirrors" *me looking at my mirror in front of me*: Uh... hello

Well first: congrats on the 500K! I love how she looks when she's slowly spinning, it really conveys the slithery nature of how you described her moving! I was cracking up at her lack of eyebrow though.

I am just LIVING for these OCs. Everyone of them is unique and I legitimately enjoy hearing their lore/backstories.

You have inspired me so much. Because of you and some other creators I am considering a RU-vid channel of my own. You are the reason I want to do it!

I absolutely adore how this universe is growing and evolving so quickly! This would make an amazing game! Keep up the great work Ace!

First thing I can think of when I see her finished is... wow holy crap she's creepy 😳. The second thing I thought 2as wow thats such a great artwork I love it

I always enjoy these videos, any time of day

The Lady:Who are you? The Red Lady:I’m you but scarier!

#ideas The Jock- Chad Vargo was the star of this high school athletics. He played pretty much every sport. The people around him became jealous of his popularity and how he could get any girl he would want. During one basketball game the people rigged the hoop to come crashing down on him. He gets chosen because the revenge he desires. The nerd- Jamie Mars someone that got bullied by the jocks could be Chad. And he ends up dying in a car reck with the person chooses him because Chad gets in a car crash with him because he was speeding/ drunk. He gets revenge on Chad (how Chad mysterious death happens) And it was all apart of her plan. The nurse- Elise Bartez a crooked nurse who sold organs to people for money. Then ended up giving it to the wrong people and was hunted down and killed. The lover- Juliet Myers a woman who died on Valentine’s Day because her husband ended up cheating on her she ended up dying from a broken heart and now hates everything to do with love. The hunter- Bill Bradly had gotten killed by all of the animals that he killed came back from the death to revenge him. The dreamer Mara - a very dark entity. Long slender arms and body and has a weapon of a crescent moon. Was never a human and black fog always follows him around almost making him a mist. He kills you by going into your dreams and makes himself turn into the think you fear the most. The widow- a girl who was killed on her wedding day and now wears a red and black dress. The Gardener-mutated with the plants The Preacher- The Psycho- a person who was wrongfully put into a mental hospital and passed away because of the treatments and test they did on him/her. They are in a strait jacket but the arms comes out of the original place when they want to kill and can move freely being controlled by there mind. The torso- a man holding his legs. He can lift his torso onto his legs and become faster but not for long. A ex mob boss who would do the same to the people that wronged him. So in death he was doomed to this fate. The artists- a painter that was ridiculed for his dark artwork. He was like this because he was being controlled by the person who makes these mutants. He ended up dying somehow and paints with his victims blood. The genius- could be a guy who was used in test to try to make the smartest human. He had half of his skull open where u can see his brain. He didn’t die but became a mutant. The General- she needed a strong leader on her side. So when a general in the army died by one of his own comrades. She chose he to lead her army.

dang I love these nightmare characters, there so well made, that shirt looks awesome

You've given me an idea for the basis of a wraith-type character with how you did her base. She looks fantastic as always.

I love how this guy can just take something that’s completely overused and make it look so unique- It’s so inspiring! 🤩

She's my favorite. She's perfect, so creepy, so... surnatural !

I’m so obsessed with this series, never stop please!! 😂😂

I wonder what will happen if God somehow managed to employ Ace...

These mutants deserve their own game. Fucking hell these things are WAY too good. Also, since the Mantis is the only one that is an SCP, it deserves to be part of the SCP wiki.

I think this is my favorite mutant yet! If not, she's top 3 for sure.

Wonderfully macabre work as usual!!

You have such imagination and creativity. Love, love, love your content. Thanks for making my Friday better.

Someone needs to get this man’s permission to use these characters in a fan game

Thank you for inspiring so many people to do what you do! Congrats on 500k!!!! edit: i’m so hyped for SEASON TWO

Wow she came out awesome! It’s amazing how you can paint small details. I’ll have to check out your new merch! That design looks awesome!!

you are still my go to guy for my sculpting info!! Thanks a TON! a quick snake of clay...

i love how you can still see little bits and pieces that were definitely influenced by little nightmares, even though this universe is something all on its own now. i really love seeing those little references to the original inspiration for this project

OKAY,the red lady is definitely my new favorite. The cracked mask and the whole snake-like aura just do it for me

Wow, I think that she is my favorite now. She is amazing.

I always get inspired by you every time I watch your channel. I love this so many words can not describe how in love I am with this series

I love all of your mutants, and I especially love The Ice-cream Man, but I think the Red Lady just took first place as my favorite mutant. Her design is so eerie yet whimsical and her concept is phenomenal, awesome work. I can tell the second season will be just as awesome as the first!

2:37 him: "imma cut it just a little shorter" also him: *cuts the whole stick off*

Yay!! I've been waiting all week for this!!

A mutant hunter would be a super cool addition to the collection haha

You should make a game and/or animated series based on this cool mutant universe.

She’s definitely my new favorite mutant!! Her design is just unique enough to be super cool, and I love her story and method of killing!! Also, she took down whole villages singlehandedly??!?!? Has any of the other mutants killed more than her?? Bc that’s a LOT of people!!

yesss!! love it! amazing job!

I have an idea! So, the character is called The Marionette. The Marionette is a doll like being that is the size of a regular human being. She disguises herself as the victims closest family members or a friend who has passed away. Once the victim is in her grasp, she turns into a faceless, slender creature who paralyzes her victim. Once they are paralyzed, she cuts them open and stores their internal organs into her body to have a more 'human like body'. The remains of the victim are turned into dolls and trapped for all eternity to suffer. Hope this isn't bad, love your work! And sorry for my bad English.

LOVE THE SHIRTS!! You didn’t skimp on the design. You gave them all to us. Gotta get me one. And, she frightens me. Her and Mother are my favorites. Luv u!

I would love to see a "Book Of Mutants" Like one of those old books you find in horror films, all worn, brown and covered in screaming faces. Please, if anyone agrees please thumbs ups. Love your videos dude! Keep it up!!!! :)

You're so amazingly talented you give me motivation when I have sculpting block and inspired me to keep going seriously incredible ❤

Does she listens to girl in red by chance?

What I enjoy most out of these aside from the character design is the lore, I love story so it's intriguing.

Live her pose and the creepy tongue behind the mask!

Red looks kinda sus to me. (I couldn’t resist the joke, but she looks beautiful and terrifying!)

The pose seems a little stiff to me but otherwise a very nice sculpture. (I know posing long snake like things in an appealing way can be hard so no worries there.) EDIT: I figured out what could be improved. There needs to be a bend at her waist or hips to continue the dynamic movement of her lower body.

I broke my arm yesterday and your videos cheer me up while I’m in the hospital thanks for being so awesome.

Oooh ... Can't wait to hear the Red Lady's story ... She looks quite intriguing ...

What about the engineer? He wonders the halls fixing the light bulbs and hates in consistency?

You are the only youtuber I know that makes the subscribers special right on the number, amazing

Incredible..I am really enjoying your own work,seeing you much happier again too .your very talented and just making other people’s work was not the way you wanted to go.Glad you got you Mojo back 🥰

Thanks for letting all of us enjoy great sculpting videos.

Bought my wife a premium tee after she mentioned how cool they look and she wished she had one. She’s been binge watching your videos the past few weeks. You’re officially the first “youtuber merch” we’ve purchased! :) she’s going to be super excited!! Good stuff man, keep it up!

Wow this is amazing. You are so creative and help me all the time thank you so so much for this video.

It’s so hard to wait for a whole week your creativity is amazing

The creepy sculptures are your favorite to do I’m guessing, they are so beautifully done and the details you put in are just so astounding! You are super talented

Once this series is finished there needs to be a game with options for different seasons and a hardcore mode with all seasons! Like, you need to survive the longest you can!

It would be so cool to get a little nightmares-esque game with a claymation style using these characters

I'm trying to make a lore analysis on these characters but you spitting one out every few weeks doesn't make it easy!

I love her sooo much!!! Love the tiers of darkness, love their stories, she fits right in to your mutant universe!!!!

Awesome stuff as always, all the creases on her dress and all the red almost makes it look like she had been skinned, definitely the creepiest mutant to date

She is definitely my favorite! Can’t wait to see s2

She’s REALLY cool!! I NEED MORE OF HER STORY I’m really interested!

I love the stories you have for each and every one of the Little Nightmares you make. I Think right now this might be my favorite series

IDEAS FROM PEOPLE IN A PREVIOUS COMMENT SECTION!! (It's a long comment but definetly worth it to read! These people have very good ideas!!!) Mine: The Kid --> He/she is so lonely in this world that it collects every 'friend' it can find. Watch out that it doesn't see you. If he/she noticed you and can't grab you, it'll scream and lure another boss to help him/her. The shadow --> In a room where a man can't budge, his shadow can still follow you. Watch out for dark places... it's there where the shadow can crab you within seconds. Bambix' idea for the kid: --> the child will be like 6 when she got mutated. The child will be some kind of sidekick and point out where you're hiding. He/she will alert the mother and you will have to find toys laying around the house to distract it for a limited amount of time Coy Wickens' ideas: The Model The Filmmaker The Usher The Mechanic The Preacher The Mayor The Coach The Salesman Sam Cliff's idea for the filmmaker/animator: --> you hear about a movie theatre that goes from town to town, one day it comes to your town. When everyone finally sat down, the films begins. The film is about everyone in the theatre. When you get out, the same, treacherous thing happens to you all like in the movie. The film maker has been spotted few times and very few have survived, just to be killed the next time they watch anything. Aiden laraby's idea on the filmmaker: --> the filmmaker could be someone who pulls your soul out of your body and so there is just an empty body left and you get dragged into a different dimension to live in a black and white film world forever and then the ice cream maker cleans up the body like it's normal as if they work together. That dude who makes RHS tutorials' idea on the salesman: --> Occasianally you'd spot him running around in the distance, mostly working. But if he where to spot you, he'd ask for you to buy something. You'd have only a certain amount of time to find an item to give to you and you would get something in return. Olivia Davidsons' idea on the mechanic: --> The mechanic crawls on four limbs. That way he can crawl under stuff to get you and has a monkey (to symbolize the monkey wrench). Her idea: The baysitter --> she has preteen/teen girl height. Dresses a tank top with an unbuttoned flanel over-top. Baggy jeans, silver chains and air forces AA's idea on the model: --> a face covered in makeup that looks like it was applied by a child. They would make illusions to look like the most beautiful human among them all when you look directly at them, but when you look in a mirror you can see their true self and how horrendous their appearance is. They only attack when you know their true identity. The result will be your death, but with your eyes gouged out and tongue cut off. The best way to say it is as "you don't need eyes since you cannot see true beauty at first glance and you won't need the tongue to tell the tale of the most beautiful of them all" Laura Ruizesparza's ideas: The hairdresser The florist The fireman The veterinarian The zookeeper The hatter Denki Kaminari's ideas: The mayor The secretary The mailman The neighbours The stalker The officer Jacob brown and lmao hi's idea: Ace of clay makes himself as a mutant That one animator's idea (as an answer to lmao hi): The sculpter Veejay Magdahongs' idea: The maid Julia stoltes' idea: The seeker Bambix' idea on the seeker: --> a child just like the students but bigger and more mutated. You'll have to play a game of hide and seek with them and and if they find you, then you're done for and 'you're it' meaning they will consume your soul and you'll have to look for it looking as an empty husk or a braindead zombie. If you win, they have to hide. When you find them you have to kill them as fast as you can before the time's up. During this time, there will be a little clock at the corner if the screen to show you how much time you have left. Moth Chans' idea: The priest Jennifer Lawsons' idea: A gravedigger --> An old cemetery with an old gothic run down church as his haunting ground Tapioca Guy's idea: The toy maker The maiden --> the maiden lives in a swamp and usually tries to drown you. If you escape while she is sleeping, she won't kill you right away. If she wakes up, she comes out of the swamp when you're outside and chase you until she gets you. If she can't catch you, she'll slowly dry out so she has to go to the swamp before she's too late. Chance Hanlin's ideas: The nun --> not Valek, instead maybe a nun-like humanoid creature that resembles something like hybrid between a fallen angel and a biblically accurate angel. Just imagine it chasing ypu chanting "be not afraid" or "fear not" in a crackly distorted unholy tone The witch --> maybe a coven-inspired one that worships the Eye God seen throughout Little Nightmares, for the purpose of keeping the curse placed throughout the world of Little Nightmares. Related to the Lady perhaps? The Jester/Clown/Joker --> maybe some sort of spindly, almost contortionist-like figure that crawls on walls like a spider and almost resembles The rake Vierry's idea: The animator Oline løvgreens' ideas: The fisherman The smith Multiple people's idea: The grandmother/grandma/granny (Someone who had Japanese symbols as a name, I'm sorry I can't wright Japanese -- unfortunatly -- but here's the idea of that person): The general

I had an exhausting week but being able to come home and then into this really made me smile! I love the snake theme going on with her. She’s neat!

I'm still Waiting for the Corpse Bride one 😊 Btw great job! Looks FANTASTIC

I absolutely love the Mutants they are so cool

I love the vibrant colors on this monster. It looks so good. You’ve definitely inspired me to do more sculptures.

That was so inspiring, we need a video with the most creepiest monsters including the scary lady.

All these mutants should have there own horror movies there creepy and have a good back story

You have inspired me to start taking my character sketches for my fantasy book and start bringing them alive. Ty Ace for the past years of inspiration and Congratulations on 500,000 that’s awesome 😎 Btw love your characters and their awesome back stories!
