What this video covers
This work-in-progress tutorial from SKS Props walks through building a Beholder-themed foam pumpkin inspired by Dungeons & Dragons. The creator demonstrates cutting a craft foam pumpkin with a hot knife, then adding sculpted detail with EVA HD foam and foam clay. Painting is handled with Liquitex acrylics and Createx airbrush paints, and a standout technique shows how to craft striking monster eyes from Christmas bulbs and foam clay.
