  • How to Make a Bird Skull Cosplay Mask perfect for a Plague Doctor costume or Masquerade. In this video I go over all of the steps it takes to fabricate your own eva foam Bird skull mask. There are also free pdf patterns available over on my website that you can download and build right along with me. This is the kind of simple project you can make right before Halloween for a party or masquerade. I also show how I added details using Foam Clay and hand painted it with acrylics.

    Fun project! I always learn something from your tutorials. And admittedly I'm a bit of a brand loyalist but every time I have to buy a non-sks product it just doesn't compare. For example, your foam clay has more structure out of the container than others I've tried that are kind of runny. I can use yours to actually sculpt objects independent of any other surface while the other brands seem to need a base structure of eva foam to be most effective.

    • @SKSProps
      @SKSProps  Рік тому +3

      Thank you I appreciate that! and yes my foam clay is different from others out there we tweaked the formula to get it more of what I wanted to work with so I'm glad you can see the difference!
