CAN I BUY ONE???
Hi,can do a kaiju no 8 cosplay? excited!
Como comprar tu armadura.....
I no longer take public commissions that's why I make the videos and provideo free templates for you to make your own
Is flex paste rubber a good alternative to the creature cast rubber?
I’ve never used it before. I usually will stick with creature cast, flexbond, or Plasti dip
Definitely happy that I came across your channel just in time for FanimeCon! I'll be going as Kite from HxH. I still need to make his scythe so I've been watching videos on what products are best and light considering my short stature lol. But for next year, I want to make the Dragonslayer and go as Guts so I'll def refer back to your video! Thank you for making the video easy to follow along and the template!
Glad to hear have fun with the build!
8:06 (book mark for me✨)
I'm going to follow your tutorial and make this armor. However, I might want to use sintra board instead of foam. Any tips?
Foam would be easier. Sintra won’t conform to your body and you only get one shot to heat form it. Believe me I know, my Dead Space suit rig was all sintra, wonderflex, and pvc board
when, kamen rider will have a template?
Ahh, yes, SCP-1471
this is absolutely awesome, now make it out of pure tungsten
Wow! This video + the other parts has been helpful! Im currently buying materials to make this, this video even after 2 years is still amazing! Btw if you still find this comment , IF i was flying to a con, how should i Pack this ? should it go into Security and bring it on the plane or Cargo?
In attempts to make a voodoo headdress this is the best tutorial to do a skull i have found ❤ Thank you very much.
You’re welcome! 🙌🙌
Can i just buy one?
It looks GREAT at first sight 🤘🤘🤘
Where can i buy this armor
I don’t sell props publicly anymore you build it yourself
"It's afraid"
Can you make Senshi helmet from Dungeon Meshi anime
I'm trying to follow your tutorial, but there is no weld wood contact cement I could find in Canada. Are there any alternative brands or products that will work?
Any contact cement or medium gel superglue
@@SKSProps 😊 thanks
I'm not that much knowing of dune, what exactly is the point of the mask in the movie
Part of their stil suit which recirculates sweat into water
Can i use leather instead
Of course, almost all professional leather workers use foam first for mock ups because of the similar thicknesses
Good 😎👍👍👍👍
Once again you have saved me from having to make my own template so I can make more stuff with less time. Thanks brother!
Glad I could help! 🙌🙌
Question, Can u do this to with cardboard if u are able to fold it?
Only one way to find out. I couldn’t tell you for sure because I don’t work with cardboard
@@SKSProps Thats alright :D, Also do u know of a way on how to figure out the measurements? (beginner in this and when i printed the templates they came out in a small size 😅)
(i think its because i printed it in A4
@@Has6409 it’s already scaled watch the how to print templates video
@@SKSProps Just found it (i think it's my printers fault Because i tried the poster and it didnt work out.) However i will not give up! I learned at school how to put stuff into scale right now i have the template in A4 (small) what scale is it set on? I could measure everything and make the scale bigger :)
I would buy that
I’m covered in foam dog
This looks amazing and really makes me want to try replicating leather! How is your foam different from other EVA foam? I'm just starting out making some armor and am looking at different types of materials.
Thanks! My foam is a higher density at a shore 38 hardness than any other brand. so it cuts much easier and cleaner, won’t dull your blade as fast. Plus because it is a higher density its waaaay easier to manipulate, has a smoother surface , and sands so much better than more porous foam
Por favor faz a tiara da feiticeira Scarlatte ❤❤
So cool!
Thanks!! 👍
50/50 if i need to make this because i just watched exhuma
i love men in uniform
Hey @sksprops! Is it possible to get this template back up? The only hat I can find is the Tiny Tina's Wonderland Hat! Would love to make this during the week :) Thanks!
it's still on the templates page scroll down close to the halloween masks
What size paper do you print it on ?
paper size doesn't matter match the how to print templates video
can you please make a red hood helmet! i downloaded the chest piece for a first project but i just need a good red hood helmet template now
Multiple people already have check out my friends much props and Olympian props
I can use it for my Kung Lao Cosplay 😂
True!
This is excellent, amazing work!
Thank you! 🙌🙌
Hi Steve are you gona do aliens marines armor to?
Follow my instagram for build updates
I’ve been using the Evike starship trooper armor and have always wanted to try and make my own, this will definitely help with improving my cosplay more
Awesome! Glad I could help!
im covered in foam, dog
So thankful for this! I’m actually in the process of making it now but out of curiosity, how long are the teeth?
2-3 inches 👍
@@SKSProps thank you!
Can you make the t-60 helment
Some of my friends already did check tutorials on UA-cam
hola , podrias darme las medidas de las partes del sombrero por favor , es que en mi adobe acrobat no aparece la opcion de poster en la seccion de escala de pagina .
Hello, a question, what materials did you use to make the armor? and you are very talented thanks for the tutorial thanx
Thanks, It’s all made out of EVA HD-Foam
do i print off the template in A3?
It’s already scaled and paper size doesn’t matter. Watch the how to print templates video.
@@SKSProps yes just watched it, thank you 🙏
When you're going over the cutting tools, there's a little cylinder looking tool that you don't talk about. Is that some sort of sharpening tool? My biggest issue is keeping a sharp blade. It's like after a single cut, it's too dull to make those nice slices without it looking jagged. I find stropping my blade with leather and a compound helps but I have to do it after every cut it seems
It’s a kershaw knife sharpener I use it all the time especially after every few cut
@@SKSProps Thank you so much! I love snap on blades but I refuse to go through them as often as people say you should.
@@KeryuOkami with the sharpener I’ve had the same blades in mine for months. And I guarantee I cut a lot more foam than most.
are you by chance going to release the patterns for the belt and boots?
Hey man, really love your work on the Chainsaw Man helmet and appreciate that you give out the templates for free. I am having a small and kinda complicated issue though. When I print the template, adobe says that it will be printed over 9 sheets, but when it is actually printed it is spread across 12. When it is printed this way the margins are incredibly inconsistent and it makes it impossible to cut the paper to the right size. On the other hand, if I tell adobe to print over 12 pages instead of the 9 it automatically sets, it prints with consistent margins yet all the pieces are shorter and wider than in the first print. I have no clue what could be causing this and just wanted to ask for some of the measurements on the pieces so that I can determine which print is actually the correct size. Thank you and sorry for the long explanation.
Hey, just go with the 12 sheets that should be fine. Everyone can be different worldwide because of margins and paper size 👍 And as an example the height of the blade without the teeth is 4 5/8” tall Also part w the circle is 2 1/4”
Looks amazing, loved that the process was shown
Thank you very much! 👍
Are the free templates still free? I wanna use the moving jaw mask.
the links are in each video description
I want to make an adult sized iron giant statue or just props what is everything I need to learn how to do to be able to do it???
