How I build some simple standard wings.
They are super easy to build out of cheap materials and the attachment is invisible.
Hope this helps! ♥
Materials:
-Aluminium PVC pipe (needs to be a bit flexible/(heat)bendable)
-Worbla Finest Art (Roughly half of a XS sheet (5€) is enough)
-EVA Foam / carpboard (as core material)
-Hot glue
-Velcro tape
-Plastic foil / Laminate Wood Floor Underlay / Acoustic White Foam (German name is 'Trittschalldämmung')
Tools:
-Hot Air Gun
-Scissor
-Hot glue gun
-Jigsaw (for cutting the pipe) - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต

![Cosplay Tutorial : Make feathers with evafoam [FR/ENG]](/img/n.gif)
I have absolutely no cosplays planned that require this kind of wing but I’ve watched this video like three times???
Ahhh I'm glad to hear that u//v//u !! Thank you ? XD
Make the wings and wear them around the house.
||-//
Do you even need a cosplay to wear wings 😂
Twenty Paphonies see if they’re functional
Seeing the power tools and the glass table made me a little scared
It lasts 10 years now, seems the glass couldn't care less xD
@@seme oh shoot, and to ten more I guess haha
Exactly! 👌
Omg ikr
Me: **doesn’t cosplay**
*see’s video*
Me: *”I NEEEEEEEED ITTTTTTT”*
Nothing wrong with that ;) Go for it
This is me but I never get to making it cos I'm lazyyy
@@SparklezAn this is fineee ✌️

I think it would be helpful to provide onscreen text for each step.
Otherwise, it’s very informative!!
This was just a spontaneous video while I had to build it eather way so it's absolutely unperfect haha but I'll definitely consider text subs for the next video :)!! Thank you
Yes pls
@@seme what did you use to make the Base?
@@kennyscosplays PVC pipes ? and the small rectangles are eva foam and worbla. Anyway all the materials are in the video's description ;)
I was thinking about what I would wear to pride this year, and I considered wearing wings that would be my flag colors.
I decided that would be too hard
This popping up in my recommended is a sign, I think
This is definitely a sign. Raise a flag- uhmmmm your wings!!
Or it’s telling you to make wings that are your color XD
Yuki the Wolf wear it periodt 👏🏾👏🏾👊🏾🥰
@I love you!! Oh how right you are. God loves everyone. ❤️👌
its pride month! did you ever make em?
I have con in less than a month- needed to desperately make wings and when I saw this it literally made me so much more relaxed. Thank you so much for this video, it helps so much 🥺
Ahhhh so happy it helps! Good luck with your wings!
@I love you!! Also the fur weighs a lot and that makes everything mroe complicated sadly..
I don't think I've ever seen someone use that packaging material for wings before. Good thinking. How did you come up with the idea?
I like to make foam wings, and this is still foam, just different weight and texture. It has a similar look for me to wings and cosplay is thinking different to get things done, so... XD
Looks like theyre just "wingin it"
😂😂😂😬
@@seme did your foam have perforations in it, or was it just one solid sheet. Just wondering because I'm trying to find a roll without the perforations
@@justchilling106 me too two years later. Can’t find this smooth version
im showing my friend this video bc he has an oc with wings and i feel like hed enjoy cosplaying as him
Happy you did! I'm sure he can pull off such wings and you can increase the size also easily ♥ =)
How old is your friend?
@@michaelar1280 almost 14
i_does_arts9 mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmaybe not
@@michaelar1280 why not? isn't cosplay for everyone and, as said by the creator of the wings, the size can be adjusted?
I love it. It's the best tutorial of all the wing dyi. Just as you said low-cost lightweight and I love the detach feature because its travel friendly and you can replace them any position you want, and bring few extra wings too!. The look is clean, waterproof and most of all the look is elegant. I definitely took notes on this one! Thank you SEME Cosplay!
I'm so glad it helps! Thank you so much for your nice and detailed feedback, that makes me super happy! :)
Wish you the best and good luck and fun making wings! ♥
Honesty one of pet peeves is when people out the wings basically on they're butt (unless that's the actual design if the character) like hon that's to low, that doesn't work.
Yeah, I get your point XD-
Omg its look so goood i love them!!! My only question is .. i didnt understand how you attach them :0
Thank you!! 💗 The basic plate can be sewn on clothes, they are so lightweight it works perfectly 👌
at the moment I don’t have any cosplays in mind that would require wings, however I do believe this would be very helpful for other props and this would be very useful for me in the future. Thank you so much! :)
You're very welcome, I'm so happy I'm able to help! =) ♥
I love your wings they are beautiful so ingenious and crafty I can use these videos to help me design costumes for my son when he does performances in school plays and stuff thank you xxx
Thank you! I'm so happy it helps =)!
SEME Cosplay you're welcome and you make it look so easy x
What a lovely mom 😁
I would have just have attached the paper wings from the start to my back to be fair
Fair enough XD !
Oooo, I've been planning an Aziraphale/Crowley cosplay for a while and this gives me several great ideas and a base for their wings! I love watching time lapses. My only question is about the base, I see that it's foam covered in warbla (right?) with velcro (industrial strength I'm thinking) but how did u attach the wings to the cosplay its self? A harness of some kind?
Glad it helps ❤️ You're right so far, and it's good velcro but not industrial actually. The bigger and heavier the wings, the stronger the attachment needs to be. In this case, they are so lightweight, the attachment plate alone, without an additional harnish or so on can be sewn to the back of the costume without dropping it physically
That's the exact same reason that I'm here, my dude 😅
I’d so use for a lucifer cosplay hot damm
...WOW. (That’s the only word that comes to my mind! It’s just so beautiful and perfectly done 😨)
Thank you so much! That's super kind of you ♥♥♥ They're actually not hard to make! u v u
I'm making a maleficent cosplay and this has given me some great ideas i love how your wings turned out and I hope to see more videos in future😄
Thank you so much! I'm glad it helps! There are many possibilities to build wings so any inspiration is helpful, I guess ♥ I'll make sure to continue in video making :)
I checked when she joined YT and she joined like, 4 months after I was born O.o
Yes and I was always inactive here. You can guess my age now XD!
Lol 😂😂😝❤️💙❤️
I remember when i was in 4th grade we had a cosplay show in which i was there, I WAS THE YOUNGEST, i needed to wear wings and my wings WERE THE HEAVIEST...
I wish you could've posted this sooner like... 2011
Damn, I'm pretty sorry I didn't do this :< !!! Feeling sorry for your past-self!
Hahaha its fine.......
But seriously >:V
I'm doing a castiel cosplay for a con and this is gonna help so much!!! Thank you
You're very welcome!!
I love this, this is absolutely amazing!!
Thank you so much!! < 3
Oh wow I've been stuck on the whole attaching wings to yourself and stuff and this is an amazingly helpful video to stumble upon! ;O; Nice work!
Thank you so much ;//w//;
Me: * plans on cosplaying *
Video: * exists *
Me: THANK YOU GOD
XD
What would you use to colour these wings, I need to make a yellow pair ?
so they are just attached with velcro? and, do you think ay other materials than worbla would work? I want to make these, but in a bit of a different style so I want to understand them the best I can.
Yes, only velcro. This works only when they are small and lightweight enough though. The base covered in worbla can be built in many different ways. You just need to make sure it's stable enough and the veclro is super fix on it. Even sewing velcro to fabric would work if the farbic wraps around something stiff and stable.
did you have the picture with the wing skectch you use for make the wing?
The link to the pattern is in the describtion!
im planning a philza cosplay and my brain is entirely just “WRITE THAT DOWN WRITE THAT DOWN”
Ohhh exciting! Wish you the best of luck and a lot of fun with that! :D
can you get the plastic foil in colors or paint it?
You can use many different kinds of this foil, it's no specific one! And yes, you can paint most plastic foils.
that is very helpful! thank you soo much, from where can i get the photo of the wings that you cut the foam on ?
You're very welcome!
Gonna make a philza Cosplay soon so this is highly useful! Thanks a lot!!! ❤❤❤
So glad it helps!! :)
This is beautiful!!!
Thank you so much!
How do you attach them to a costume tho? Can't see the mechanic in the back on my phone that well
The wings are connected with velcro to a small base. This base can be sewn to a clothingpiece or can be glued on. Since the wigns are super lightweight, they won't pull the clothing down afterwards. =)
Turned out so good 👌👌👌
(Love the Logo-intro btw.)
Thank you so much ♥♥♥
I'm planning on cosplaying Hawks in the future, so this is really helpful!!
I'm glad it is! Good luck with the project!
Hey I’m so interested in this and I really want to make it for my next performance. Can I ask you that what’s is the brown rectangle things? I see in the description that it’s Worbla. I’m not sure if I have it in my country, are there any replacements? It’s just a hard thing to keep the wings straight?
Hey! :) It's a thermoplastic material, it's soft and moldable when heated up and sturdy and hard when it cooled down again. Also it keeps its shape afterwards. The thicker the layers, the more sturdy the result. You can actually replace this with different materials/techniques, it just worked best for me since it comes in very handy. If you search for 'Worbla Finest Art', you should find many shops that ship worldwide who sell it.
*doesn't have any cosplans with wings*
Me : *sees this video* I mean like, I could figure something out.
Of course you can ;)
Oo nice! My friend is helping me make me wings for Halloween, this seems cool and it helped me a bit thanks!
You're very welcome! Have a great halloween!
How thick is the foam being used in the wings that serves as the feathers?
It's around 3-5mm thick!
What is the white material used in the wing?
Written in the describtion! =)
Idk what cosplay I'd make it for but I am definitely making this at some point!!
Where did you get the idea that Worbla is cheap? That's actually expensive!
You need just so few of this, it costs max 5$ USD, the smallest available plate is enough. This is cheap in my opinion! =)
Compared to buying feathers this is cheap. Plus nobody will have a duplicate of what you make which makes it all the more cost worthy.
These are really cool!
Thank you so much!!
OOOOOH THOSE ARE AWESOME
Thank you
How thick is your foam material?
(I found that it's really similar to epe packing foam)
I think 4mm circa, but very stiff here!
Hello! I recently purchased your pattern and cannot find these aluminum tubes for the base and I was wondering where you purchased them and the more technical term for them? I looked up aluminum PVC pipes or bendable pvc and got nowhere lmao
Hi! Actually I didn't know it at that time but the best solution are actual regular PVC pipes. You can shape them carefully when heated-up (wear a respiratory mask) and when they cool down they will harden again and stay in shape! :)
may i ask how thick was the foam you used?
It's around 5 mm thick! :)
Hello. Question what type of fabric did you used for the wings?
Hi! For the wings itself I used Plastic foil / Laminate Wood Floor Underlay / Acoustic White Foam (German name is 'Trittschalldämmung')! I hope this helps you! :)
What are the thing s that u bent in the first step
It's written in the describtion! =) PVC pipes, slightly elastic with a metal inlay
How did you color them?
with acrylic spray paint
Do you think a large gauge wire would suffice instead of the pvc?
It needs to be super sturdy, so no wobbling material, other than that everything works 👌
What lind of foam is it?
EVA foam from cosplayshop.be and the white one is foam for packaging stuff for safe delivery
What's the name of the packaging foam
It's 'Trittschalldämmung' in German!
how did you make the large print of the wings? that seems a bit large for a regular printer
I always alter my files to the real life measurements in photoshop and save them as pdfs, this way you can easily print them like a puzzle in postersize and you can create lifesize images and blueprints this way super easy. ♥
SEME Cosplay huh? That sounds pretty complicated 😅 any tutorial on that?
Sorry, no :( If you have a specific question, just send it to me on social media and I try to help! ♥
It's simple: Imagesize: switch to 200cm f.e., saving as pdf instead of jpeg etc., finished. Printing advise is a longer text, I can send it via social media
SEME Cosplay thank you for your help. I’ll give it a try
+morgan donner has a couple of in depth videos about printing patterns full size if you need a more in depth tutorial
I have a upcoming cosplay and am looking for some red wings do u do commissions?
Yes I do, you find all informations on my homepage or in my etsy shop. =)
Is it possible to spray paint the foam? Or do you need to paint it by hand?
The foam in the video is spray painted! But you need to use not-too-toxic paint for it, I used graffiti spray paint and nowadays I'd use airbrush colours.
How do you sew the plate onto clothes?
There are D-Rings on the Backside, you can easily sew them on! :)
Wow well done !
Thank you so much!
Wowww.. It's so coolllllll
It's like aikatsu stars when wearing wings
Thank you!!
What kind of pipe did you use?
You can use a regular PVC pipe!
Is there any way to purchase the wing blueprint??
Hi, write me a pm on any of my social medias
When I start my Angel (Borderlands) cosplay this video will definitely come in handy!
Good luck with the project! :)
Big question !
Can u fly now?
Yes.
What is the black stuff?
This is velcro tape!! :)
Do you have a pattern for the wings?
I usually make them by myself (also as commissions), sadly don't have this one anymore!
I think the best part about these wings it that because there is very little framework and hard material, you're less liking to hit someone with them, and bumping into something won't immediately break them.
Actually you can throw them on the ground and nothing would happen and yeah, they are soft and can't hurt someone XD
It’s really smart design! I’m impressed!
Whats the name the pipe you used?
I would recommend a different kind of pipe today, which is easily formable when heated up and cools down to be absolutely sturdy and hard again! They are called PVC pipes
Amazing video! Where did you get/ how did you print the large wing pattern from the beginning? - Thank you!
I have the pattern for the wings in my etsy-shop (link in the describtion), it comes with printing instructions! ♥
where i can get that uhh white thing? thanks :)
The foil? Internet- The pattern from the start? Link in describtion =)
Would it be possible to make something similar but just attach each wing to one’s back using spirit gum or something?
If so I have some shenanigans to pull
Jupp, separate attachment shouldn't be a too big bother
What material did you use? Is it costly?
The material costs are overall 20€
i'm doing a cosplay with multiple sets of wings, do you think that one larger and two smaller sets would still stay on with velcro? :o
What are the materials your using? For the framework
It's a PVC Pipe, Foam and Worbla, or what do you mean exactly?
This videos is amazing!!
Do you think there's a way of putting some color on them? If so, what do you think is the best way of doing so?
Thank u so much!
What materials use for color?
Easiest way to colour them is the use of spray paints, like grafitti spray (only thin layers)
How did you attach it to yourself?
Many ways of getting such wings on, but with help is the easiest!
I need that....
To fly away at school exam...
Should work!

What's the white thing called?
Trittschalldämmung! (German)
I could never make those but they are absolutely gorgeous
Everyone can!
I loved that. Thank you. Which kind of painting are your using to it please? Is it aniline or watercolour?
Thank you!! ♥ It's grafitti spray. But other paints will work too!
Disculpa con qué tela lo hiciste? 🥺
Me: ooh dats a nice bird wing paper thing
Her: cuts part of the wings off
Me: NOOOOO WHYYYYYYYYY AHFIWN CB KSNDBWJCNVBE
Well wouldn't be so nice to get in the rain with paperwings :( and the look of flat wings without dimensions is also not so preferable for my taste!
Do you think airbrush would take to them for details?
Yes, today that would be choice definitely!
Question how long does this take to make and what supplies are needed?
It's written in the describtion. =) Time depends on the person, 5h-20h should be the average range.
thank you im doing a Grian cosplay and this was very helpful😄
So glad it helped!! :)
OMG OMG YOUR SO TALENTED
Ahhh thank you so much!! I do my best :))
How did you connect the pvc pipes to the worbla? BTW the wings looks AMAZING!
Thank you so much!! =)
I just wrapped the ends of the pipes in worbla, you should see this part in the video! Adding hotglue to the connection seam helps as well!
This is super helpful!
Where did you purchase the aluminum pipe?
Thank you! :) We have such pipes in the hardware store!
I love the outcome!
One question tho... How did you bend the pvc pipes without heat!? XD
Thank you so much!! Glad you like it! Actually... with.................strength.......!? I never thought about heatbending before and watch rarely tutorials from others so... stupid me I guess XD. Next time I will try that lol !
I was just surprised! XD I tried to bend them but I always ended breacking them xD
Ah! But these aren't normal PVC pipes =) These have a aluminium 'inlay' so they are more flexible than a simple pvc plastic pipe! Still it's ahrd to bend them but they don't break easily. XD
@@seme Ah, okay! Thanks :D
The pipes you're using look like PEX - which are flexible.
What did you use to add color like in the thumbnail?
That's was spray paint! The absolute best paint for this would be airbrush paints since they're opaque and flexible.
@@seme I'll definitely keep that in mind when I make my next set. Just finished a pair for a convention and I used acrylic based spraypaint which is great for going over foam because it's not harsh like oil based, but it's not very flexible. Any movement makes it crack and its kinda flaky.
Wow! Good idea!! :)
Thank you! :)
I must try 😍!
Good luck and have fun!
Circa how much of the foil did you use? I need to make colored wings so I need to know how much felt should I buy
I'd recommend to make a pattern first, print this out and measure the exact amount with the help of that! :)
SEME Cosplay im using your pattern
@@trollcreativestudios1084 Allright! I'd still recommend to print it out beforehand, due to the layering the needed amount can differ widely! =)
What kind of materials that she used?
Written in the describtion =)
What were the wings/feathers made of?? Xx
Please read the decribtion ♥
Do they hook onto a harness of some sort at the end??
No they are so lightweight that velcrotape is enough to hold them in place :) (without pulling the clothing)
@@seme so you just velcro them to your clothes??
me and my friends are all making these for pride. it's gonna be delayed till September because of covid so now we have the whole summer to work on them.
Ohhh I'm so excited for you!!! Good luck with everything! If you have a specific question, feel free to ask me via one of my social medias =)
How do you attach the wings to your back? 🤔😳
When you build them lioghtweight a good velcrotape is enough to hold them! Otherwise you could easily use push buttons or hooks!
Is it possible to paint it? Which paint?
Yes it is! You can use spray paint (I used grafiti paint) f.e.
@@seme thank you very much 😮❤️
what is the name of your materials the color brown one and the gray one?thanks
Which one do you mean with the 'gray' one? The brown one is a thermoplastic called Worbla (Finest Art)
I think they mean the grey foam? Before you add worbla on the frame
Oh! That's EVA Foam so every sturdy kind of foam works :)
I am so confused by what foam that is for the wings ):O. When i look up plastic foil its just what we call seran wrap or plastic wrap.
German word is "Trittschalldämmung"! Hope that helps, don't know a translation :(
