Thank you so much for yet another well taught tutorial. And I also want to add thank you for taking the time to talk with me at LFCC in London on Sunday 28th July,it was a pleasure. xx
Ahh girl!! Thank you so much! It made me smile so big when you came to me and told me you liked the Breastplates video! 😁 I hope you had a great time at the convention! We sure did ^^
Love the detail and how intricate your art is! Thank you so so much for sharing! However; I do have a question, what is the best way to finish the the back? Do you do an elastic back strap or make a worbla back strap? There’s so many great videos on working with worbla but if Anyone can suggest any other videos or cool tips on how to finish this would be appreciated !
Thank you so much! Worbla is such a cool material :) You can make so many amazing things with it! And it's so durable too ^^ Even my oldest Worbla armors are still in great shape after years ☺
@@PretzlCosplay I have actually made my wife quite few solid metal corsets from polished brass and also mirrored stainless steel. All cut with a huge laser cutting machine. But this wobble looks like it will be so much easier to work. Thank you again.
I am LOVING your videos. So many excellent tutorials and tips, not to mention watching you work on this stuff reminds me how much I miss this process. Yay adulting!!! Anyway, one thing I notice is missing from a lot of these is how you come to make the base of your Worbla creations. For sewing, I find I can just make something up relatively easily and I have over 12 years of sewing experience and cosplay now (Yikes!) But I'm trying to up my game and diversify what I can make and also the detail of my projects. I'm working on some bioware character costumes as well as some star wars and original costumes that require some armor crafting to really bring them together. What I'm really struggling with is creating something for the base pattern to start my project. How do you get there and take that 3D Shape into a 2D space that will then become 3D again? Does that make sense?
This is insanely amazing !!! How absolutely gorgeous and perfect for a spectacular Halloween costume !!! I would love to learn how to make this !!! Gorgeous work, I'm speechless!!!
Hey Pretzl! I love your videos, you make such beautiful pieces look so easy! As someone new to cosplaying I'm having trouble taking the vision in my mind and making a design on paper. Do you have any tips on how to plan out your ideas from the beginning? For example, how did you come up with the blueprint for all the small pieces of the breast plate that you cut out of foam in the beginning?
Thank you so much!! :D Aha, I can understand that it can be difficult to make patterns from scratch when you are just starting out. But believe me, it will get easier along the way ^^ What I personaly do, is measure my body at the places where I want the armor to be. Then I put these measurements on a piece of paper and just freehand what I think the pattern should look like. I then cut it out and hold the piece of paper to my body and check in the mirror if it looks right. If it doesn't, I will make changes and try again until I like the pattern. Then I will draw the extra shapes on it for the layering, and transfer those onto pieces of paper too. Then I end up with several pattern pieces that I can cut out of foam :) The exact patterns that I used for this one, are in this pattern pack: www.etsy.com/listing/630754951/digital-blueprints-woodelf-leafeon?ga_search_query=leafeon&ref=shop_items_search_3
It’s so weird that you posted this because I am currently working on an armored Leafeon cosplay and this video showed up on my notifications! One question though... do you need different sized spheres for different size bra cups?
This breastplate is fully made with the white (Pearly) Worbla. I didn't use the normal (brown) Worbla for this one. Maybe the foam inside the Worbla confused you? That is craftfoam, to help keep the armor in shape :)
Do you have any tips if the plastic dome is too small? :( I ordered the 12cm one but its a bit too small, and I'm not sure if I can cover that up with worbla because the dome is smaller? Do you think the worbla would stretch enough if I heat it up and shape it?
Who is YOUR favorite EEVEELUTION? Mine is obviously Leafeon :)
I love Umbreon and Flareon. :)
Mine is vaporeon glaceon
i love al them.. Leafeon
Loved it. Your costumes always look super amazing!
Thank you so much darling!!!!

I met you at gamescom last year and your leafeon cosplay is just amazing ☺️💚
Ahh thank you so much!!!!! Are you going to Gamescom again this year?
It's really nice to see more videos from you. :) I really liked how you took your time showing us and explaining all the different steps.
Thank you so much!!! I had over an hour of video footage 😂 I'm happy that it can be useful!
when you use worbla can you cover yourself and then heat it?

That costume is like the costume of danaya in encantadia in philippines
I want to do that costume but i dont have a heater
Amazing techniques! I've got to try working with this stuff.
I have a question. Why not just glue the foam onto the chest plate? That way you still have the details and one less step.
I love this video! You explain everyting so well and the breastplate looks amazing!
Thank you so much Kira 😁😁
Your work is so clean and detailed! Amazing work
Awesome job! Loved the detail and painted job! ^_^

@@PretzlCosplay I will try that! Thank you so much ❤️
Newbie question here: Why did you use worbla and foam as opposed to just foam for this breastplate?
Hi! Im from Instagram! I love your videos! They’re amazing 😍😍
really nice work on this breastplate👍 you did an amazing job detailing, what aren't you good at?😁 Keep up these great videos👌
Ahhww!! Thank you so much!! :D
It’s so weird that you posted this because I am currently working on an armored Leafeon cosplay and this video showed up on my notifications!
One question though... do you need different sized spheres for different size bra cups?
Oh but that is so cool!! I hope it can be inspirational for your own Leafeon cosplay!
WOW, I'm speechless - thank you so much from new subscriber!
Excellent work ,.. good tutorial
Why do you first use normal worbla and then do fine white worbla above and below?
