Hi guys! Here is a quick tutorial video on how to make a Wizard bracer from Diablo 3 with Worbla and craft foam. It took about 2 hours to make the bracer and I recorded every step for you!
Sorry old video - there is no face and voice this time (was in a hurry and still wanted to make this video). However I included English subtitles to explain a bit more! Hope it helps!

Would you mind also sharing your process for going about adding the fastenings and all the pieces you need to actually wear the armor?
Wish you'd do more of these. I don't care if it's a tutorial or not, but I like seeing crafters work when they're really good. Been trying to set up of me working kind of like this. Need to sit down and edit videos -_- I've got 2 videos up on that channel, but probably enough material for like 6 more already filmed, lol.
The second video is already almost done! This time I show how my husband Benni paints my stuff!
We both were pretty busy lately, but I really plan to upload more and more in the future again, so thanks for the patience!

I know how that is. I uploaded my first 2 videos probably a month ago. And like I said, I've filmed a bunch of stuff, but all kinds of things came up in between my uploading the original ones and me being able to sit down and edit more videos -_-
Kamui I wanted to say to you how much i love your work and your style. I know the cos play industry has taken off so fast and so strong and i hope you receive nothing but lovely compliments and praise for your dedication and lovely time you give to us by making these cherry and fun videos. I love your books they are helping make a foam Frostmourne and Litch King armor for my son. My first true project to sample with your techniques in mind from your books and vids - thankyou so much- you are sooo great
This is the first time I ever saw someone make a piece. Looks like fun.
Kamui hands down this is why you are my favorite cosplayer. you are always finding ways to help other people get into what you and they love people helping people thats awesome!
Absolutely fantastic tutorial! I really want to try this stuff and these videos are perfect for beginners to have a go.
Thank you for taking the time to film and upload them :)
OMG. That makes so much more sense. Thank you so much! I could not figure out how to do all of the little design work that you do. Thank you so much.
I know this video is old and i am planning to make my own cosplay for the first time. I want to Cosplay Fran from FFXII. This is the best tutorial I've been on how to use Worbla! I'm keeping this video in my saves.
I can't explain to you how much this helps me!
This is the coolest thing ever. Thank you so much for posting your process!
You're amazing! You make it seem like anyone can do this, thank you for posting this :)
Beautiful work I think I'm going to give worbla a try never worked with it before.
THAT WAS AWESOME! i am so glad your making more videos. yay!!
Just bought your pattern! So excited to try it out!
That's video is amazing. Thanks for sharing. I'm going to work on my first cosplay costume & this video is very helpful, especially with how to do pattern when cutting out a design to have worbla over. Thanks! :)
wow i have been looking at so many vids today this is the best.....
I only have to say one thing...
You are my inspiration, you are my favorite cosplayer
Amazing! And thank you for sharing.
This is friggen fascinating!!
You are very talented!
Thanks for this video. Kisses from Spain!
You are a huge inspiration!
Keep being awesome (:
I love your videos and your books :D you are so talented and inspire me to create cosplay too. I hope so much I am as good as you someday
Thanks for the tut. A slight suggestion: you should add a black outline to the white text, it can get a bit difficult to read, especially when there's even more white in the background. I often had to pause it, which seems minor, but the music's good too and you never really want to pause when listening to music?
Incredible
This really helped me understand that its not that hard to use worbla. Im a newbie to cosplay and i really want to get it no it. I am 15 yr male who LOVES anime and cosplay. The only cosplay ive done is neo from " The Mattix" that was relly fun. But i want to get to making my own stuff.
Yeah Worbla is really easy to get into. :)
Ya that's super awesome.
I love your explications :)
magical!
the music though♡
Awesome!
Amazing!! 😊
soo awesome!
Thank you so much!!
Amazing :) Thank you
look at those hands work!!!
Thanks for sharing this! This really is gonna help in cosplay i'm making! quick question though what was that song!? i wanna listen to it forever lol
Thank you
Thanks this is great, I subbed and starting to design on paper now but for my dolls. They are very tiny so it's going to be difficult.
I wonder if you have some hints how to connect some metal half rings that I can use to bind the bracers with but the scale is 1:3 so it's small and I cannot have anything sharp sticking out for damage on their skin.
This is so incredibly helpful. I've struggled with covering up seams for a while, and after connecting to large leg part I get scared to mess up the whole thing and waste my material, so I'll definitely try out this method. I just want to know how you get the worbla dust off entirely after using a dremel? It seems to always stick to my pieces and it looks really ugly and grainy.
Hi, great video and love your art. I want to do aquaman 2017 . Do u have any ideas for the shoulder piece? Thank you
wow nice!
So cool job
Thanks!
I wonder if you have a tutorial/video on how to prime armor or give the armor a metallic/shiny look?
So do you ever find any problems with the worbla coming apart at the joins or does it adhere to itself permanently? Amazing job!
I envy your talent greatly.
Wow that's hard but look Glorious
Could you also use something like velcro by attaching it with gorilla glue or hot glue? Or not hot glue because the warble is very sensitive to heat?
How come when you work with worbla, you do it with such ease and finesse?!?! I couldn't stop burning my hands everytime since it was hot 😂😂 But great work! You inspire me 😊
This is great, thank you! ; u ;
Me encanto
Hi, do you wait for the worbla to cool down and harden before dremeling the seam line? Thanks.
wow. how i wish i can make one too
It's such an awsome video ! thank you ! It really helps me ! (sorry , my English is not ... perfect at all, ahah ^^ [french-powaa])
Does the worbla just stick to itself when trying to join it all together? Or is a certain glue needed? Awesome tutorial really love it!
Worbla sticks ti itself .
What do you use the keep them on your arm? Straps or what and how did you apply them?
This would be very handy for a destiny 2 cosplay
Thank you so much for sharing this helpful tutorial with all of us Kamui ^^
Btw, I totally fell in love with the music but Shazam doesn't seem to recognize it.. What's it called? :3
Great video, can you tell me what mm foam you used.? I think the foam I used was too thick. Thanks
+Chitra Jones Mostly 3mm
Deine Tutorials sind echt großartig! Ich wünschte ich könnte meine eigenen Cosplays basteln, allerdings kann ich mir das Material als Schülerin leider noch nicht leisten :(
That came out great! So all it takes to attach the worbla to itself is heat? That’s easier than waiting for glue to dry!
Yup!
Happen to stumble upon this and I must say. Very talented. I was curious tho just how much money tho u wld have invested in each brace once it's said and done, or how much the material costs in general. I was curious for future material ideas.
Personally, I've recently invested in Worbla and it was only a half sheet but it cost me about $50. It isn't to expensive for the quality of the material though and it's pretty easy to work with once you get the hang of it.
Interesting :)
You think you can do a tutorial on coloring?
I was wondering, how can you make the bracer stay in place (not falling of your arms)?
Do you have tips for me, because I want to cosplay Mimiru form Hack sign and it's the first time I'll use worbla.
Thank you!
can you do a video on making helmets/ head pieces ? love your stuff by the way
So wie du das machst wirkt es so "einfach" ... und dass du damit so ein Ergebnis erzielst bewundere ich sehr. Aber es ist längst nicht so einfach, wie ich es in meinem Gleichmut dachte. .__. Habe heute mit meinem ersten "Armor Cosplay" angefangen und ich muss sagen: WoW! (wow cosplay XD) Du hast echt eine Menge Talent und Feingefühl für solche Dinge. Es ist schwer aber ich werde mir Mühe geben es nur halbwegs so gut hinzubekommen. Wenn ich nochmal das Glück habe dich auf einer Con zu treffen kannst du mir ja sicher auch noch einige Tipps geben. =3 Würde mich sehr darauf freuen.
What thickness of craft foam do you usually use for general body armor?
do u know where can i find the cheapest worbla? i live in spain and for me is very expensive.. great tutorial amd thank u :)
I think coscon shop has cheapest one, look it up because I might be wrong
All i need now is a tutorial on priming :3 i know i have to add many layers of gesso, but how does the surface get so smooth...
Wow ! Really great !!
But how you know the size and the model (on paper) ? I don't know where to find them..
But gg !
Can hairdryer be used instead of the heat gun for cosplay
Hey there, I'm curious as to if you can do similar 3D details with wonderflex.
What would you recommend as a cosplay for someone who's quite new to building armour? I've been cosplaying for seven years and I've made props and jewellery but never armour, and I'd like a new challenge ^_^
cool
Another master piece!! BTW can anyone tell me which song did Kamui use in this video? Thank you so much!
Same
whats the name of the song?
Thanks for commenting a year after! I just Shazamed it and got the name of the song: "One" composed by the artist Amotek.
Have you ever had any problems with Worbla coming undone while you wear it in warm environments ? What about body heat too? Does that make it soft again?
Worbla needs a really high temp from a heat gun to get it to be malleable. Body heat is nowhere near hot enough to do it.
Hello, I have a question. with what material you realize your bracelet? He's awesome, continues like this! :D
With Worbla. Is there a coating you need to put on there before painting? if so? can you give me a link to the product you purchased. thank you!
+xaznxthaigerx Yes, you need to do some priming. But you'll notice that, as soon as you touch it. The surface is a bit rough. She uses a couple of wood glue layers before painting it. White school glue will work as well (I know many in the US know that type of glue).
Can we use only 1 layer of Wobla? Not cover foam both side?
WOW
What was the piece you put under after you molded it to your arm? Could you explain how and what to do at that point
I wanted the bracer to have a little distance and not lay directly on my arm. I needed it to hover a little bit so to say. So I put in another piece in between to get that distance! :)
KamuiCosplay so is there a reason you didn't want the gauntlets to directly touch? How did you make the spacer?
could i use instead of the craft foam eva foam?
Do we trace it in normal paper or a specific one?
Hello!
I was wondering if there was a structural reason you created the main part of the bracer in two pieces instead of one. Thanks!!
It's just to get a little distance between my arm and the bracer. :)
May I ask, what material are you using made of?
How do you keep the bracer from falling off?
I want to get worbla in Argentina ... but unfortunately there is Wonderflex as similar but not so detailed you can be with this material. :(
Just wondering what is that you're using?
You don’t use any glue with worbal?
una pregunta esto es eva foam???
Can we do the same thing but with replacing Worbla by foam sheet ?
+Sherlockian Fannibal Working with foam is different. Yes, you can create armor with foams like EVA, but then you need to watch other tutorials, as the materials behave differently and require slightly different steps.
SomeSeal Thank you! xoxo
Do you think Worbla would be good for making a holster for real guns?
I think it should be fine as long as you add a backing such as craft foam to make it extra sturdy.
It looks like gingerbread dough. I'm so hungry now...
if I don't have a steinel gun, what can I use?
could you make a tutorial on how to make a gauntlet
Ok so i don't understand Worbla, does heat make it stick together or do i need to apply glue?
+Popo Sensei Did you see any glue in the video? :)
ШИТ!!!! Это классно
Does it matter what side you heat up
Worbla is super expensive.
Is there an alternative?
Just asking but where do you get your worbla?
