I'm the Evil Ted who makes props and costumes. I’ve worked on Star Trek Into Darkness, Walking Dead, Fifth Element and Guyver, among lots of others. I've made pretty much everything out of every material, but foam is my favorite.
I'm here to share my skills and shortcuts, and help you learn how to make foam costumes and props, too.

You are the absolute “man” when it comes to this. However, while you don’t need it because your seams are so good, as a noob I have found you can sand down Kwik Seal with 1000 grit sandpaper and it makes it very smooth prior to applying your base/primer coat (bounce, mod podge, etc). Thank you for your videos. They are insanely helpful!

starting my halo odst armour and helmet, can't thank you enough! while I'm experienced in sheet styrene, MDF, foam, airbrushing and brush painting of all sorts, the foam as structure was totally new to me. while cheap, you still don't wanna put in hours of work while making glaring mistakes. your videos really help with getting down the basics by example

The thickness of the glue was definitely the problem with my first helmet. The glue ended up pulling apart and making a huge seam because there was simply too much of it. I'm really glad you ended up making a video on this topic specifically. I would also like to give you a general thank you for being so helpful to all who watch and comment on your videos. You are the best at what you do and seem to be extremely dedicated to your supporters. Keep it up! :)

I thought I would let you know I have written this up in a 5 day 90 min a session lesson plans. hopefully if kids sign up I will be teaching this for free at a children's art workshop. 12 years of age to 18.. This should be fun. You inspired me to move to foam and not steel. saved me hours, my ears and loads of sweat. every kid i show will have a power point featuring you, and the links will be shared with them. I am spreading your love.

I downloaded a Deadpool mask and was able to construct the mask. I had some problems with the seams being a little too obvious for my tastes. I watched how you fill your seams with Quickdry Silicon. I still wasn't pleased with the results. Then a guy from the U.K. turned me onto Smooth On products. I have to say, The XTC-3D product, took my mask to a whole new level. I did a test run with the product on some scrap foam. It came out beautiful. This stuff fills seams and you can put it on thin with some alcohol or just put it on as thick as you want. It is a semi-rigid Urethane which is designed to go on top of 3D printables. This stuff sands beautifully. I am so very pleased with all of the information you and your compatriots have provided. All I can say is Thank you, Thank You, Thank You.

Amazing work! Thank you for sharing all this knowledge. I have dabbled with come craft foams in the past and made really awful stuff, but with your techniques, the viking costume/armor I am working on is leaps and bounds ahead of anything else I have made. I am subscribed and Ill share pics out once its all done too :)
