I was so happy to see you using floor mat foam in this video! Most of the foamsmiths I follow tend to use tntcosplay or other higher quality foams in their tutorials and videos, and while I recognize that they are higher quality products, a lot of us are still out here ballin on a Harbor Freight floor mat budget lol. Thanks for another great video!

@themechbuilder6171 Жыл бұрын

i don't see why floormat is considered cheaper.... (personally) for me it was super expensive...

@rong1924 5 жыл бұрын

I like that you are still using floor mat for some of these builds. Low cost and great for 'throw away' fun projects.

@EvilTedSmith 5 жыл бұрын

Yes, I use the floor mats for testing patterns.

I'm sure I'm not the only person who sees that that "Tech Shoulder" armor piece, if made bigger, would make an awesome mask or face shield for some type of helmet. I can't even really see it as a shoulder piece (although clearly, it IS). I look at that and all I can envision is the front of a cool helmet!!

Ah! This is so Perfect. My plan for today was to try to make the shoulder armor for my room mate's She-ra Cosplay and chose to check out youtube while I have my morning coffee. So glad I did!

Great little tutorial Ted. Shows the newbie how easy it can be, and reassures us old hacks that we're adhering to your commandments lol. Extra guides on, maybe '3 ways to decorate each of those shoulders - from simple to real fancy' would be great [time consuming] but great!

For sealing, I really like thinning down the water based dap weldwood in an airbrush, it acts a lot like a non-toxic plastidip.

Question evil Ted how or where did you get or make the foam shaping anvil you used in this video

@EvilTedSmith 5 жыл бұрын

I made it. You can use a plastic ball or a soft ball, just something round to curl the foam.

@rosedonnapur 4 жыл бұрын

I’ve been watching KZfaq for hours trying to figure out how to actually measure your shoulders to do this as all the templates are ready-made no one is actually showing you how to do shoulders with the gauntlets can you just wrap your arm and cut them off. This video was helpfull still

@EvilTedSmith 4 жыл бұрын

When it comes to making, it's just trial and error. I find that once I make something that works. I keep the pattern for future projects.

do you thin your adhesive? i bought agule pot like yours but my glue get thicker and thicker

Yes, I try to keep the edges clean so it wont dry out so fast. Then a add barg thinner to it.

What is that round thing you use for heat shaping?

It’s an acrylic dome. But you can use anything that’s round. Like a softball held by a roll of tape.

Just a HeadsUp to Ted: If you read this and are an honest person, the AWE me channel is playing a "Live" video titled "(AWE me) Man At Arms - FuLL Series" ... It's DisHonestly showing ALOT of UnRelated videos, including an episode of DIY Prop Shop that you GuestHosted... Just wondering if you wanted to be an HONEST person, or if you were just gonna enjoy the MisLEading attention it might give you. (IF you even bother to still read YT comments, like you did in the past)
