I was so happy to see you using floor mat foam in this video! Most of the foamsmiths I follow tend to use tntcosplay or other higher quality foams in their tutorials and videos, and while I recognize that they are higher quality products, a lot of us are still out here ballin on a Harbor Freight floor mat budget lol. Thanks for another great video!
I'm sure I'm not the only person who sees that that "Tech Shoulder" armor piece, if made bigger, would make an awesome mask or face shield for some type of helmet. I can't even really see it as a shoulder piece (although clearly, it IS). I look at that and all I can envision is the front of a cool helmet!!
Ah! This is so Perfect. My plan for today was to try to make the shoulder armor for my room mate's She-ra Cosplay and chose to check out youtube while I have my morning coffee. So glad I did!
Really helpful! I'm in the process of gathering materials and it's really nice to see a tutorial with floor mats, since those are the most accessible eva foam items I can buy.
Great little tutorial Ted. Shows the newbie how easy it can be, and reassures us old hacks that we're adhering to your commandments lol. Extra guides on, maybe '3 ways to decorate each of those shoulders - from simple to real fancy' would be great [time consuming] but great!
Just wanted to say Thank you. Your videos have helped me out so much. From pattern making to gluing and finishing. You are a true master. Thanks again.
freshly getting into foam, made a couple weapons of sorts. and need to make a shoulder piece. your video is super helpful, but how to you know where to put "registration" marks on a template?
I’ve been watching RU-vid for hours trying to figure out how to actually measure your shoulders to do this as all the templates are ready-made no one is actually showing you how to do shoulders with the gauntlets can you just wrap your arm and cut them off. This video was helpfull still
Just a HeadsUp to Ted: If you read this and are an honest person, the AWE me channel is playing a "Live" video titled "(AWE me) Man At Arms - FuLL Series" ... It's DisHonestly showing ALOT of UnRelated videos, including an episode of DIY Prop Shop that you GuestHosted... Just wondering if you wanted to be an HONEST person, or if you were just gonna enjoy the MisLEading attention it might give you. (IF you even bother to still read YT comments, like you did in the past)
