What this video covers
This tutorial walks through the full process of transforming a craft foam pumpkin into a DnD-inspired Beholder creature prop. The creator demonstrates hot knife cutting, adding sculptural detail with EVA HD foam and foam clay, and finishing with Liquitex acrylics and Createx airbrush paints. A standout segment covers building expressive monster eyes using Christmas bulbs and foam clay, giving the prop an eerie, lifelike quality.
