What this video covers
Madeyewlook transforms into Astro Boy, the iconic Tezuka Osamu manga character, in this Google Arts & Culture partnership video timed for San Diego Comic-Con. The look combines a Graftobian bald cap, lightweight air-dry clay for Astro Boy's signature hair spikes, and graphic black-and-white body paint to achieve the classic animated aesthetic. The tutorial walks through adhesion, sculpting, and paint application in roughly nine minutes of finished content.
Key takeaways
- ◆Air-dry clay is used to build Astro Boy's distinctive hair spikes directly onto a bald cap — never on bare skin
- ◆Pros-Aid is used as the primary adhesive for securing the bald cap
- ◆Graftobian Pro Paint in black and white delivers the bold, graphic cartoon look
- ◆Inglot grey eyeshadows add shading and dimension to the otherwise flat paint
- ◆The look is cosplay-ready and was created in celebration of the Tezuka Osamu collection on Google Arts & Culture
