- Showing it apears simpler than explaining it ;)
I plan to add annotations bit by bit, as well as a time table index below so you can jump at the desired step of the building process.
JFcustom's PDO file for foam available here : www.therpf.com/...
Foam mats available here : www.decathlon.f...
Enjoy ^^
Looking back at vids like this remind me how far prop making at home has come since...
That is some wonderful work, the lines are non-existent from a distance and look very clean on closer inspection. Great job.
Wow. This demo of yours has just made a pepakura project of mine easier. Thanks for putting your entire build up here!
i just realized i used thicker foam for my helmet. watching this has helped me out a lot. thank you!
I Appreciate the intricate detail and skill in the precision cuts. So much fine labor. Over all great final result.......except the final finish. with all the minute detail, i thought the finish was rough....
Great job on the mk 6 design
Great video! was thinking about how no one really showed it step by step. Your video is perfect (Y)
Very nicely done and thanks for the idea of using yogamats!
Literally anybody who is into this are asuing yogamats.
+Yosephiab well no, most use Eva. These yogamats have a kind of film over them.
i dot know anybody who does, mostly people do their research and don't.
Nice work, I appreciate real time videos. Really help
I use the same mats they are very easy to use and cut for detailed work... good video :-)
+Lee H Good to Vanquish costume too ;)
Wow. Great quality! Truly amazing
woah, been waiting for this helmet build for a long time!
Hi, best video I've seen on how to make armor, without a word and understands great. Greetings from Spain and thanks for the tutorial. Like and subscribe you deserve.
great work, obviously lots of experience there
My build has takin for ever even with the cameo cutter that's crazy to see how fast you did this. Did you take any steps to harden the helmet and remove the faceplate
No, it's a one-piece helmet, and it remains flexible. Then the owner is free to coat it with resin and split it in several parts on his own.
Un maestro del eva foom sin palabras esto es arte
wow only 3 hours to build the whole thing AND OUT OF FOAM (which is less forgiving and more expensive than paper) awesome!! so if i do this out of paper id just have to set aside 5-6 hours (an extra 2-3 because it will be my first "large" scale pepakura build)
Were are the pdf files??????
can you do a video on building a Robocop armor as well
I have found that you have to *cover the entire edges* you are gluing together and then pressing them together while the glue sets *is very important.* If you don't the seams will be painfully visible. If you have an extremely long edge, you may do better to take it a section at a time.
what thickness foam is this? and no sealing of the edges of the foam? Ive been told to take the heat gun to the edges before you hot glue them
Well, I am in a fairly big community and we all use yogamats. Eva is not thick enough, but I guess it's up to you
Have you tried the classic RoboCop suit yet
Do you find that the natural curvature of the foam lends itself to being used for this purpose, and if so, did you specifically cut parts so that when removed from the foam they bent to your advantage?
Beautiful build! I've made some pretty good stuff but its nothing in comparison to yours!
Hi I try to make this helmet... but shape of this helmet is hard to make in one place.. so If I glue all parts together is ok but how to put this:P or maybe use some glue inside to hae it in one place and then cut for 3 parts?
hey there, absolutely love this video and what you did!!!...now I tried to follow the links to get the print outs but I guess the thread has been deleted I was wondering if there was anyway of you emailing them; If you still had the pdf. files? Cuz I'm going crazy looking for them..LoL I'm crafty savvy not tech savvy
+Janette Flores Thread it is still there, currently downloading pep files...
@ArmorAsylum: Thank you for tip on material and great video
Hello my friend, that was one really nice iron man helmet. you did it just like you've been doing it for along time. great job. if you don't mind me asking. Maybe you can share me the foam template for this helmet? I really appreciate it. thank's
Like the 3 first pages
Dude ur great - it will be great tat if u upload Batmobile templets 😊
According to the final result (with paint); Did you use resin to harden your helmet and have a plastic appearance ?
Can you make a pepakura set of nail clippers? Jeez!
thank you.
nice work! is there a way to make that Decathlon's foam smoother before painting?
Can you explain why you cut out strips of foam during the assembly process? Was it to get the seams to close better? It's hard to tell since there's no audio/explanation. Thanks!
hello!first of all thnx for the upload it helped a lot!could you tell me what are you using to make paper cutter sharper?i can't seem to find anything like that.Thanks in advance!
You can use an exacto knife
I love the audio track
What is the best way to fill the gaps to cover the seams on foam?
YesImZharif Concrete.
can you tell me which file you used for this helmet. in the link you provided there are a few foam downloads. this was a great video too .. thanks
The first of these few downloads contains the file you're looking for.
Thanks. I found it and have made the helmet and am half way through a king the chest armour.
can hot glue gun be used to stick polyethylene mats??? i think the temprature is too much for the material :(
Would it be possible to make this helmet with 10mm Eva foam mats?
hi you,r awesome .i,m just starting my iron man but i don,t know where to get the foam.can you help..
It's just a yoga mat
Hello I really liked your video but I have a question
to harden and then paint when polyurethane foam
how do you do?
thanks
You need to mix water with some glue for wood(white glue) and put about 5-10 layers. Then you put primer and then normal color
monstermask3212011 thanks
very nice
It's like watching a mime for 3 hours straight.
do you have any child size templates for a 10-12 year old boy?
no progama pepakura voce mesmo pode calcular o tamanho que voce quer
this cool I'm doing a Iron Man articulated animatronic look on my channel this goal miss
what may i use to make an EVA foam helmet rigid?
that depends on what you mean by "rigid", you can either add cardboard on the inside, or, you could spraypaint it with some coats of vinilic /pvc glue, or better the glue carpinters use, its like vinilic glue but more dense...
Though, if you use the second choise, you should use several layers, if not, it will crack and doesn't look nice...
an other choise, is to use more foam =P
instead of a 5mm one, use a 10 mm.
why did u fix the face part with glue??
como consigo la goma eva que usted está utilizando? y si es posible me facilite los archivos de los trajes de iron man.
nahum olarte los tiene en la descripción todo y la goma Eva también está muy barata...😥
Para que ocupas cuchilla ??, podrias haber cortado con las uñas....
Did you set it up to standard size ???
do you need pepakura to open the files
