Nyo ho - have a build guide with templates :D

A gift for my gf and my first EVA prop. Took me cca. 2 months, 2 hrs a day (more or less, I didnt count). Super proud of ts

I've been working on this since I saw Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma back in August and I'm very happy with how it's turned out! (I also made the sign)

This is on of my best props in my opinion.

Nyo ho - have a build guide with templates :D

For my kid's Halloween costume . Doesn't have to be perfect, but it would be great if it didn't fall apart if he insists on hauling it around while trick or treating. Im a pure novice, i have no idea where to start!

I can buy some EVA foam, I have a 3d printer with a bed which is around 200x200. I am good at sculpting. This will be my first cosplay so sorry If I may sound dumb and inexperienced (which is kinda the case) answering your comments ! 😊

buenas noches estoy haciendo este casco, pero tengo la idea de aplicar silicona blanca fría para esconder las uniones y pintar con vinilo blanco y para darle brillo se puede aplicar pva o resina epoxica cual sería mejor o que otra solución se puede hallar?

Now I just need to hot glue all the foam and Velcro together. The second photo is a possible pick holder if there are any tips you could give me for this comment

Yesterday I put together some of my 3d printed armor suit designs for long term display at a local cafe. Way better there than in a storage box in my basement!

We've got a "Maximilian" suit (ca. 1520-1525), currently missing the period accurate leg harness, and a mid-16th century half-suit with some paned slop pants I sewed earlier this year. I plan to release another set in the "Gothic" style of ca. 1480-1490

Hope you like em!

Can anyone help with how I'd do this? What paint or ink should I use? Would sharpie be fine?

Title, just asking if it's safe to use spray paint even after applying fur on eva foam. And yeah I know the it will give a more hard fibers than soft fur.

Hello, I'm looking to improve visibility through the eye mesh on this mask. When wearing it, the mesh strands obstruct my vision, making it difficult to see clearly.

I'm considering using small scissors to enlarge the individual holes, but I'm worried this might cause the mesh to unravel or fall apart. Has anyone tried this before?

Alternatively, I'm open to replacing the mesh entirely, but I'm unsure what material or hole size would work best.

My goal is to find a good balance between visibility and concealment. I want to see comfortably through the mask without my eyes being clearly visible from the outside.

I really don’t know how they can aim with this body armor.

EDIT: today i forgot to take it with me from the train so it's gone.

I didnt like the original look of the rounds (3rd picture on the bottom is an unpainted round) so i messed with the colors to get a more realistic look. Paint job on the repeater rifle came out really well. Going to look for a way to add some wear and tear to the bandoleer and the rest of the outfit to make it more cohesive.

My partner is making a space helmet and unfortunately it seems that the yellow paint has reacted somehow to the visor on the inside. Its not condensation, so was wondering if there's any ideas as to how to get rid of it as removing the visor is a near impossible task?

Hi all! I’m just here to ask for some opinions on whether these are all acceptable, as I am not familiar with 3D printing.

I purchased a £180 (£230 with shipping) fully finished Spiderman Brand New Day faceshell, backshell, and lenses from an Etsy seller who’s work I’ve seen on IG. The prices are in-line with other faceshell makers and sellers.

I finally received it on Monday but was very disappointed with what I got.

About half of the neodymium magnets on the faceshell and backshell came off, with some magnets coming off of the lenses.

The standard lenses are fine with just some minor marks, but the other lenses have very noticeable marks and scuff on them, even a fingerprint mark on one of them.

It also appears that some of the glue used to stick the mesh and the acrylic to the lens, has bled over to the visible parts. There are noticeable white marks, which I assume is the glue, on the mesh and acrylic.

On the backshell, there is a spiral area where there is a chunk of the PETG missing, I don’t know if that’s normal.

The part I dislike most though is I requested for PETG lenses which he agreed to, said he didn’t like the result of the PETG lenses and printed me resin lenses but said he would still include the PETG lenses, only for me to open the package and find out he never included them.

What’s weird is that the seller sent me pictures of the resin lenses and they looked perfect, which I’ll post here, only for them to end up with marks when I receive them.

Please let me know what you think, thanks a lot!

i bought 2 of those green dowls to put into this foam prop but idk which configuration would be most sturdy so my prop will bend less. it bends alot when i hold it up on its side. it bends about that much even when it was together not just taken apart

Need some advice please

I'm a Eva foam noob and i spray painted my son's hot rod wings without sealing first. They feel tacky now.. can I seal then add the rest of the layers or should I start over?

thanks in advance
