Build Some Sci Fi Armor for CHEAP : DIY 

I remember watching these videos when I was pretty young. Had o have been like 10 at least. I decided to go back and watch some stuff because I ended up growing into the aspirations of being a film maker, and I wanted a nostalgia kick. I'm just looking at these videos and how they're produced and the quality and love and effort that went into them and reminiscing on the good ole days of RU-vid. I know that's such a cheesy thing to say but it's the truth. I don't have any issue with Fortnite or CoD vids or anything it's just so saturated with them that unique stuff like Indy Mogul type channels are hard to come by now. I miss these guys. I remember the first host is who was on when I started watching, cant remember his name though. I think it was Jeff or something? Idk I'll find it here in a bit with some more searching Lol.

I remember watching these videos as a young kid, as soon as they came out from very early on. Super nostalgic watching now, being a kid was so much fun.

"Be as safe as you are creative" So you're telling me not to be safe? Are you telling me to be dangerous?

I am impressed. Looks totally awesome. You're instructions are detailed enough. And it looks like something I could do at home. Perfect.

Damn. Its really been 7 years😭

This video just entered my mind out of nowhere. Just as i remember wanting to make this as a kid it pops up in my recommendations. Im being watched and its not that bad tbh.

dude, 2021 and this is still awesome. gonna give it a shot this week! Thanks!

You need to make some Imperial Guard armor. It looks almost as good as the Space Marine armor...

0:19 legend intro😃

You're that guy from the Fallout film Nuka Break.

helpful tip : when hot glueing on the rough side. always sand it smooth. that way the glue will hold better. contact cement also works great. plasty dip is great to coat it before painting.

Dude, your video helped me a lot! I was looking for inspirations and tutorials to create my sci-fi armor and you answered all my questions in just 6 minutes. You are amazing, brother!

BRUHHH this was a really simplified way of the steps! i loved it! thank you soooo much!

thnx so much guys I've been wanting a way to create the veteran ranger armor from fallout and this is the most cheap way to make it.

Great vid! Love the fact the that this is completely unbiased to a single game and can be used on almost all cosplay occasions!

Used these techniques for most of the costumes on my film project. I really can't thank you guys enough for making this tutorial!

it annoys me they all say it's cheap but never add in that some people don't own heat guns or Drexel tools

Im begging you please show a second vid on how to make the shoulder pads and maybe even a helmet...mostly because I suck at making my own things without tutorials.

this really helped with my vayne cosplay! I also like how you made a difficulty level and specific price range, so i went in prepared when making my stuff. Even though the armor pieces i made were small, this still helped alot via detailing.

My kid loves this idea, and I have almost all the materials and tools already at hand. I love this tutorial, thank you for sharing and doing such a good job putting the video together.

“As safe as I’m creative.”...I will not survive this build

I guess you could apply this technique to samurai armor? Darth Vader suit? Batman suit?

I remember watching these videos back when they came out, inspired me to start working on cosplay and going to conventions.

Dude I so stumbled across your video and let me tell you I'm hooked great tutorial and explanation on how to DIY. Keep up the awesome work!

Hey you're the guy from Nuka Break!

How do you do the templates. All I need is the back template, and I'm good to go

Amazing! Loved it! Can't wait to start!

I finally finished my set of armor today. I am really proud of it. It turned out way better than I expected. Thanks IndyMogul.

Hi your videos are fantastic.. My grandson who's 5 loves watching how you make stuff...he is really into the robot "Atom' from the movie Reel Steel Please could you give us some tips on how we could do His Head And body Please.

They should do a diy fallout new vegas ncr ranger armor

Thanks for making this. Great effort!

great work, nicely done!

That would make great airsoft armor

I'm gonna try to utilize this to make a Kamen Rider Kiva cosplay. :D

Good tutorial! Very easy and helpful. Thanks

Thanks for sharing. This is really going to help my project. I am making a custom cover for my prosthetic leg with foam and leds.

did yal know Zack works at loot crate now?

Dose anybody think the spine pice looks like the dead space spine pice

Dude your armor was amazing! It honestly looked like something from a real professional movie. You're absolutely talented when it comes to art and design. I hope you make lot's more videos in the future, I love your videos, and you're awesome.

WOW! Great/simple strait forward w/o all the mindless droning. Good job.

Why did this Chanel die

I want to make a armor that is cool looking but can stand against bbs I know it's not needed but armor is expensive

I've been wanting to create armor and this was a fantastic post. I will do this myself but more importantly I will be going through all your videos becuase you did a great job showing how to do something reasonably price so thanks again.

I was so happy once I saw this video, I'm going to try to make something with these tips this weekend.

Does this work with airsoft. I mean does it protect

very cool thx guys totally going to do this method very easy looking KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!!!!

That's really cool man. I rarely log into youtube to to kudos someone (like half a dozen times ever), but very cool, thumbs up!

This is a great idea for a cheap costume. Keep the ideas coming.

Been looking for this video for a couple of days now. Plan to use this technique to make my truck look armoured.

Love this!! Thank you!!

Great job! I use PVC sheeting for most of my armor builds. Keep up the good work!

Being back Indy Mogul!!!

Love your tutorial! great ideas! I'm making a short film and this stuff is really going to come in handy! I subscribed to your channel looking forward to new ideas from you. thanks again and keep up the great work!

this is awesome! im going to try this asap!

Radical man... Subscribed!

Great job looks so cool

I still comeback to the video after all these years and still find this superhelpful

I like the way you speeded up the timeon the building. It can get boring watching someone cut upform and stuff. The armour is very cool!

Cheers bud! So simple.

Modified this to make a space suite, AWESOME!

Man I wish I seen this video before I bought thinner foam and began working on my cosplay armor... Going to start from scratch now... Awesome tutorial.

pretty nice for a quick cheep build. I like that you used a soldering iron with a knife blade tip that was pretty cool. Looks like it makes it much easier to cut then using a carpet knife.

WOW ,I'm going to make a Mass effect armor!! I've been trying to find an easy technique to do it a long time now (I've seen this technique before but I thought I was too hard for me ) tnxx

reaally nice you gave me some good ideas :) thx keep it up

great work man you are a master.

Pretty freaking amazing buddy, you rock!

Looks way more hi tec than just painted foam! Well done. Loving the "Pulse Rifle" like gun on the final photo too hehe

Fantastic video!

Great build. I have been wanting to make one of these for a while but I never could find something for my budget, I think I can handle this though. Can't wait to give it a try.

13 years already?! It feels like yesterday watching this videos for the very First time.

i made one of these for this up coming Halloween and its freaking awesome thx you guys for helping me

This is freaking inspiring. Why can't I find people like you guys live in my area to do stuff?

Very interesting. Good work.

thank you for the tutorial ,I`ve build my own one and it looks good. THANK YOU!!!

the foam is pretty easy to find. Aside from department stores, i found it in different colors at a toys r us, a dim gray in a retail workout section (floor foam, it also had a coarse side that could be an armor feature). also in the camping section it had an olive drab green mat selection. they arent that hard to find

Awesome! Gave me some good ideas for Halloween!!! 👍🏼😎

nicely done. good idea with the knife :D

GREAT JOB!!!

Thanks, this information will be really helpful when building my Imperial Guardsman armour.

This is the first one I've watced and you did a rad job. I'd like to see a more detailed build video on either the arm piece at the end or even a different method for robot arms in general.

This armor looks awesome!

this is so cool thank you for tge idea. ive been workin on mine and taking a ton more time and working onnarmor from halo reach

Bro, this guy's video is the reason I began getting into cosplay! Super nostalgic as always!

Thanks for the help man

as a kid this was always my number 1 go to channel after school

Awesome idea!

Outstanding!

Thnx for this armor vid! My friend and i are going paintballing and he suggested armor so i showed him this video. two weeks and we will be in combat sporting this kind of armor!

This was the best show on RU-vid

Just amazing!

That was amazing! Great pieces and they actually look do-able by ordinary people.

Epic. Now my dreams of so many different types of armor can come true! And for cheap too!

Awesome video.Thanks

I miss this series. This one was my favorite episode.

NIce thanks you for that one because it just gave me the platform for my sifi look!
