What this video covers

Allen Hopps of Stiltbeast Studios demonstrates a specialty sculpting tool he calls a forming plank, showing how it transforms tool marks into convincing wrinkles on a WED clay sculpt. The tool is described as deceptively simple yet highly versatile, appearing at nearly every stage of the sculpting process. Stiltbeast Studios produces and sells these forming planks through their own online shop.

Key takeaways

  • Forming planks are a unique sculpting tool that converts surface tool marks into realistic wrinkles
  • The tool is used repeatedly across all stages of a clay sculpt, not just for finishing
  • WED clay is the sculpting medium demonstrated
  • Stiltbeast Studios manufactures and sells these tools directly to the public

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.
