We watch a lot of cosplayers & builders. One of our favorites to watch is SKS Props. He makes some fantastic builds and shows us how to create them ourselves. Along the way, he frequently gives us valuable tips and tricks.

In the video we have chosen today, he will show us how he makes the heavy shoulder armor from Fallout 4, but more importantly he shows us how he achieves the leather look finish on the EVA Foam.
