@@kevinkong8748 haha no you're right it should be ok. But I won't be able to make one that shoot though lol
@@dipanshubhandekar9990 I take your request into account Dipanshu, I'll definitely think about it
I could cry right now. I’ve kept a ton of cardboard from moving into my new house and I was thinking I could do something really amazing with it, but didn’t know where to begin. Your channel is EXACTLY what I need!!! I’m in awe!!
Oh that's so sweet Marie, you made my day! It's lot of work to create these tutorials, so it means a lot for me when someone tells me how much all of this can be useful him or her. Thank YOU ❤
HELPFUL TIPS and TIMECODES! I, too, have purchased the template to modify into a mask/cosplay piece. I've just gone through the video super carefully and hope the following can help make the tutorial and templates easier to use.
TIP #1 - MAKE SURE you transfer over the template page numbers. For some reason mine didn't initially transfer (I think the bottom of the pages got cut off) so for every piece after 12 I was like "which one is this?"
#2 - If you are wondering which templates correspond to which piece of the head here you go:
- Main head shape/structure (1:32) - Templates pages 1-12
- Covering the dome (2:46) - no templates
- Interior Pharyngeal Jaw (4:37) - Templates 14, 15, and 22 (I think - no mention of 22 is made in the video). 14 and 15 get rolled into bars to create the jaws. 22 is the spacer/support pieces to keep the jaw the right shape.
- Main Jaws (6:38) - In the order they are used, templates 19, 23, 20, and 21. 23-1 and 23-2 are the only two that don't get rolled into bars. 23 are both parts of the "gums".
- Details on the sides of the head (9:25) - Templates 16 - 18, as well as 13. 13 forms the ribbing pattern on the side of the head, hence why it says "make as many as needed" on the template.
- Jaw tendon supports (11:11) - Templates 24-25
- Detailing/Texturing (11:29) - no specific templates. Random cardboard rolls, and strips of cardboard paper.
A few good points that really matter! Thanks for helping the community DaleyKreations ;)
Perfect fodder for isolated movie lovers. Amazing work, and ingenuity, and really easy to follow, you should be proud!
Oh that's a nice compliment, thank you Hugh Intheair!!
Masterpiece!
Thank you Do Thanh Thuy! I do appreciate it
Despite the fact I will never do this, I can always live the fact I can make a movie prop out of old Amazon boxes, thank you good sir....
Thank you Italian Ice! But I'm sure you could, it's not that hard.
I've been thinking of making this for months, last night at 2 a.m. I was drinking beer and wanted the templates. I was "too lazy" to get my wallet so I used the preview picture, scaled it in photoshop and figured out the order from the video. Took me about 2 hours to get the final prints. Today I started building it. Since I'm not a total dick I still bought your templates today even if I don't need them anymore. Because you deserve it. It's really nice design and well worth even more than the 2$.
But the preview picture doesn't even show all the templates! Lol Anyway glad that you make it and that you enjoy my work. I appreciate it 😉
I find it amazing that youcan actually figure out how to make things like this out of only cardboard. Good job!
That's a nice compliment! Thank you ThyTrueOval!
Very well done! I love your attention to detail! I think Giger would be proud!
Haha thank you Biro Floki! I do appreciate it
That’s AMAZING. You are a Great Masterpiece. 😲🤩 wow
The level of detail is phenomenal! Well done, ECP!
Thank you!! :)
Even with cardboard this thing looks so good, I imagine if he has all the latex, rubber all the items used to make the real movie prop. God hands bro. Keep up the good work.
That's a nice compliment! Thank you AMMAR SJ!!
Wow. That is awesome artcraft of Xenomorph head!
That's nice! Thank you Nathan!
Love his work. His accent cracks me up. The man is a genius. Keep up the excellent work. Fantastico !!!
Haha thank you very much Jo Jo! I appreciate it
@@EpicCardboardProps Sometimes it's hard to understand from French native speakers with English accents, but when I listen carefully it's decent
@@Declopse Don't hesitate to enable the captions if needed 😉 all my tutorials have english subtitles.
Just finished the build today my hats off to you sir it was time consuming but worth it
So glad to hear that WeaponX8591! 👊😎👍👍
Genial, espero me quedé parecido 😁🙋🏻♀️ gracias!
This is so Amazing😮
Thank you ACHantapotiqong! May I ask you which part of this build you prefer? :)

Haha thank you very much for your support Dipanshu!
Yeah!!!!!my man!!!!
I just got into cardboard sculptures and love your tutorial video! Really appreciate them! Amazing just amazing!!!
That's nice Tiger Vii, Glad you like them!!
Damn and I thought I was a good cardboard crafter; impressive works.
Thank you Uncreative1! I do appreciate it
Hi Raphael :) i just purchased your template and i working on the alien. When i download the template i see a reference picture of a painted xenomorph. Can i ask how can i paint it the same way? It looks beautiful! Thank you for your help :)
Hey Mosko, thanks for purchasing the templates!
To answer to your question, you can't actually lol the prop that you see on this picture is a 1500 dollars prop made with resin. So the painting job was made with expensive processes, devices and tools. Plus Resin is not cardboard.... Cardboard is a really bad material when it comes to painting it, because it reacts really badly to liquids (that's why I don't paint my props). That being said you can try to paint it, and if you do that in a good way by making several thin layers of paint, you may end up with a pretty good result. But don't expect to have the kind of result that you see on this picture!
@@EpicCardboardProps Thank you so much for your answer :) I will paint it and see what happens :D LOL
@@Mokso I've just had a look on your channel, you have some mad skills! I'm sure you'll do a great job with it. Btw congrats for the success you have with your channel. You're on your way to hit 1 million subs that's a great milestone! I wish I was there already lol That's awesome 👊
@@EpicCardboardProps Thank you so much :D I am glad i found your channel because your builts are incredible impressive. I subscribed and ringed the bell instantly. To be honest i dont understand why dont you have more subscribers. Please dont misunderstood, i dont wanna be smart, but i would like to give you an advice which will help you grow faster because i would like to help you. I would work on my thumbnails. You do an extremely good job in the video but you could be better with the thumbnails i think. I would make more "natural" thumbnails. I would go back and change them even on the past videos. It will make a change i am sure. :) Check "The Q" channel. The guy is incredibly good at thumbnails. Again please dont misunderstood me. Your works are extremely impressive and you will reach 5 million subscribers faster than me i am sure. I will finish the alien this week and i will try to promote your channel in the pinned comment! Good luck Raphael and thank you for your help!
@@Mokso Don't worry there is no offense! It's always good to have feedbacks and advises from bigger TH-camrs ;) Actually my CTR is quite high with these thumbnails but you're right it may be even higher this way, and actually I've been thinking to make some that way already, but as my CTR is pretty high I'm just a little bit afraid to change them... lol but I have to take the risk, and I'll do for sure.
Oh indeed I would really appreciate if you promote my channel in the pinned comment of this video. That would be great! Thank you so much!
Whoa thats amazing!!!
Thank you CustomCosplay! I do appreciate it. Which part of this tutorial do you prefer? :)
@@EpicCardboardProps every part! Your tutorials are very engaging with the different camera angles and the voice over!
@@customcosplay3852 Oh thanks! That's really nice
Just got my template last night , can't wait to attempt this
Awesome! Don't forget, I'm here if you have questions while you make it :)
This is absolutely incredible. Beautiful work!
Thank you very much Cardboard Cosplay!
I wish I was as talented as you, you have a real gift.❤ from SA
That's really nice thank you Leo!
Cyan is being sus

Wow you are asome
Thank you! 😊
This is INCREDIBLE. I love seeing reusable materials instead of 3D printed crap.
That's a nice compliment! Thank you Kimchi Robotics!!
Oh I love this. I have building with carddboard for years. I wish youtube showed me this sooner.
That's sweet thank you Space Colossus!
Congratulations for reaching 2.6k subscriber man
That is thanks to you and the others like you who has been supporting me since the beginning!!
Wow, I'm new here, and I didn't look at the sub count until you mentioned it. Only 26k for his skill? Imo that's really underrated. I'd expect at least 100k. (Liked and Subbed!)
@@flare_studios. I agree
Why movies won't make things like that
?
its amazing how you have the patience to take your time to make sure you do your best work on these creations
That's a nice compliment! Thank you Zavon Castro!! 🙂
Muy buen trabajo. Felicitaciones
Thank you Miguel Mateo!!
Probably gonna cut a hole in this to wear it, comic-con here I come
Cool idea! 👍😉
Me too!
Would love to see the result! I also want to do this.
I don’t recommend cardboard black mold can grow on it. Do some research on cosplaying I know I’m late. If you already made it or are making it I hope it either turned out great or will be great!👍 cheers
@@darthcalculus6002 yea, it turned out actually half decent and I would've felt bad cutting a hole in it so I hung it on my wall with a plaque trophy style
Hey! I recently subscribed to your amazing channel and I was wondering if you can make the flux
capacitor from back to the future thanks! :)
Oh it would be a nice one to make indeed! I'll definitely think about it, thanks Raymond.
@@EpicCardboardProps :)
simply incredible!!
Thank you!! 🙂
I didn’t know you could make something so cool from cardboard
That's a nice compliment! Thank you snowyNANO!!
Please make infinity gauntlet please
It will be my next video ;)
This is absolutelly amazing, congrats for the build!!!
That's nice thank you Paula! I think it's totally doable, if you're used to make things like that I think you could do it without questions. The only issue maybe would be to find a way to see through it lol maybe by making holes on the top? I don't know, but it's doable to my mind.
@@EpicCardboardProps thank you very much for your attention!!! I will think a way to do it!!! In case I decide to make it and buy your templates, do you send it through e-mail?
@@paula_goulart You're very welcome Paula! Indeed I will send an email to the registered email address, with the link to the templates ;)
Perfect gift for Mother's Day
I agree! lol
That is incredible I cant imagine how brilliant it would look with a layer of paint as well
thank you very much james booker!! Actually if I don't paint them it's on purpose. Cardboard is not a good material when it comes to that part unfortunately. Painting them would make all the imperfections visible, as would be a child craft to a certain extent... If I wanted to paint them I would use different materials like EVA foam, resin, plastic or even wood :)
Aw man that sucks but still the realism you were able to produce in this is mind boggling, I love the Alien movies so I’m really considering following this guide to make my own!
@@SpagbolGamer Glad to hear it James! I'm a big Alien fan as well :) Don't hesitate to ask me if you have questions while you make it! I'll try to help you as much as I can!
99.9÷ is here to watch
0.1 ÷ is gonna do the xenomorph
lol thousands of people have made it Khoruum, it's not that hard.
@@EpicCardboardProps mi respect for them!
Lol did you seriously use the divide sign instead of the percentage sign

Buenisimo trabajo ,un abrazo desde uruguay ya la empese a hacer 👍
"How to make"
Like anyone has the time or talent to make this.
Thousands of people have made it so... yeah people have the time and the talent to make it 😉
turn your TV off and make the time you lazy turd.
Well, at least one person did...
Love your work. Amazing! Thank you for your tutorials. 😁👍💜🎨
My pleasure 😊
Man, you must do all the xenomorph with cardboard! Legend!
Making an entire body would be a tremendous job Samuel Hernandez! Like a six months even more and I try to publish 2 tutorials a month... So I can't, but maybe in the long run one part at a time, I'll think about it 😉
Hidden gem channel. This is awesome.
Thank you so much Daniel!
perfect work
Thank you very much BraGz -SS-!!
Just bought your templates, need a friend to print them off for me as I have no printer. Super excited to start. Thank you for making this video 😀

hard work pays off huh
Most brilliant piece to date i think! Awesome job man!
Oh thanks Star Lord!! think it's my favorite one so far (with the Millennium Falcon). May I ask you which part of this build do you prefer? :)
Awww your Video is great. Entertaining and informative. Thank you so much👍
Thank you Alexa! I do appreciate it

Thank you very much Redaurore!!
Incredible build! Now it just needs an epic paint job. I'd love to see that.
Thanks Resolute Gryphon ! But unfortunately cardboard is not a good material when it comes to that part, like at all lol... Painting them would make all the imperfections much more visible, and they would end up looking like crafts made by a young child lol to a certain extent... If I wanted to paint them to make perfect replicas, I would simply use different materials like EVA foam, resin, plastic or even wood, the result would be a way better and the work easier too. but of course it wouldn't be aligned with the topic of this channel which is making props using cardboard only! :)
@@EpicCardboardProps You're the expert, so let me ask: Can digital tools (example, photoshop) be used to bring optimal colour to the cardboard? I'm interested in creating some props for photografic purpouses and it seems like the basic colour of cardboard is good for that. Have you seen something like that be done?
@@RandalfElVikingo Indeed if you have the skills to use photoshop efficiently, I'm sure you could without questions. 😉

Very nice man
This is really brilliant. These cardboard props would make really unique decorations, but a good coat of paint could also make them movie quality props. It could save filmmakers a lot of money since cardboard is so commom

Glad you like it, thanks Arpita!
That’s amazing
Thank you very much c cc!!
Curiousity got the better of me as youtube actually recommended something decent, as it recommended the Millenium falcon, and lo and behold I see The alien xenomorph. ( some of HR Geigers best work ) Also my favourite artist. I'd love to see you recreate some of his work especially the female alien face. Just know.. you have a new fan of your work. Keep it up!
That's so nice of you, hank you Kevin! Indeed the female Alien face might be a great one to make too, I'll definitely think about it!
That is quite fabulous

Epic Cardboard Props I gotta be honest, I’m a little torn as to see yours painted realistically or left plain cardboard color. You’d hate to do all that work and not be happy with the paint job.
@@uncletatscreativeshack1702 Haha you get my dilemma right! If I don't paint them it's because cardboard is not a good material when it comes to that part unfortunately, like at all... Painting them would make all the imperfections much more visible; as it's almost impossible to do it perfectly on cardboard, they would end up looking like crafts made by a young child lol to a certain extent... but actually If I wanted to paint them to make perfect replicas, I would simply use different materials like EVA foam, resin, plastic or even wood, the result would be a way better and the work easier too. but of course it wouldn't be aligned with the topic of this channel which is making props using cardboard only! :)
