What this video covers

SKS Props walks through the full fabrication process for a Beholder-themed foam pumpkin, blending D&D creature design with Halloween prop-making. The build combines hot-knife foam carving, EVA foam and foam clay sculpting, and multi-layer painting with acrylics and airbrush paints. A standout detail is the handmade monster eyes constructed from Christmas bulbs wrapped in foam clay. A complete step-by-step tutorial is planned for the channel.

Key takeaways

  • Craft foam pumpkins can be shaped with a hot knife and enhanced with EVA foam and foam clay for complex creature details
  • Layering Liquitex acrylics with Createx airbrush paints produces a polished, professional finish
  • Christmas bulbs combined with foam clay make surprisingly convincing monster eyeballs
  • The Beholder concept bridges D&D fantasy aesthetics with Halloween prop design
  • Full tutorial video is forthcoming on the SKS Props channel

Real YARNABY Animatronic! 🧶😱 #poppyplaytime

Wicked Makers' Jay and Jaimie construct a full animatronic version of Yarnaby from the horror game Poppy Playtime, built from steel and driven by pneumatics. The build goes beyond aesthetics — the team stress-tests the animatronic's jaw mechanism using a ballistic gel arm to see whether it could realistically bite through a limb. The video blends behind-the-scenes fabrication footage with chaotic prop-testing in classic Wicked Makers style. It sits alongside their broader catalog of mascot-horror animatronics inspired by FNAF, Poppy Playtime, and similar franchises.
