Plague Doc Mask WIP - sealed & ready for paint #plaguedoctor #steampunk #cosplay

SKS Props walks through the sealing and paint-prep stage of a handmade plague doctor mask built from EVA foam. The project is based on an upcoming free PDF pattern compatible with both foam and leather construction. The video is a work-in-progress snapshot, capturing the mask just before paint is applied. It doubles as a wearable Halloween costume piece or a detailed cosplay build.

Sock Mask Work Night

Stiltbeast Studios hosts a work-night session focused on building sock masks — fabric-based wearable masks popular in haunted attractions. Allen Hopps guides viewers through the construction process in what appears to be a hands-on, real-time format typical of the channel's work-night series. The session is geared toward haunters and costume builders looking to create expressive, performer-friendly mask pieces. Given the runtime of over 100 minutes, this is likely an in-depth, workshop-style video rather than a quick tutorial.
