I'm the Evil Ted who makes props and costumes. I’ve worked on Star Trek Into Darkness, Walking Dead, Fifth Element and Guyver, among lots of others. I've made pretty much everything out of every material, but foam is my favorite.
I'm here to share my skills and shortcuts, and help you learn how to make foam costumes and props, too.

I'm sure no one checks these after awhile, but I can't find anywhere else to thank you... So thank you! I'm making foam costumes for my two boys because they are boys and destruction goes well with nice soft foam but my older daughter's costume is a dress (princess buttercup meets katnis) and the registration marks are solid gold! now on to the Xena armor for the wife. Thank you so much, you have saved me so much time and I'm sure money (cause the leather versions are NOT cheap to make)!

This works in theory but most women are actually not symmetrical. Usually on cup size larger or smaller to a size. I recommend doing both sides from specific pattern. The costume will be much more comfortable.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned it yet, but in the fashion biz they call your registration marks "notches". You notch patterns to make sure things line up properly. Thanks for the vids, they are helping a lot! Specially the materials lists, most people don't make it that simple.

I wanted to add to this in the beginning as it helps to smooth out the bodyform in duct tape: If you put a heat gun to the duct tape, it'll get rid of a lot of the bubbles, and make it malleable so you can smooth it out manually!

@RebelMerc

Hey Ted, while watching you work with your heat gun I had an idea for you. If you have an old adjustable desk lamp that mounts to a desk and had the parallel arms and springs to hold the lamp in place you could remove the lamp and beef up the springs or use wire to hold the arms in place and add a clamp in place of the lamp which will hold your heat gun. This idea would give you an effectively third hand/arm. Also you could add a foot switch so you could turn it on and off without letting go of your work. It might take a bit of work to get the balance of the arms and springs right but I am betting it would be useful aid in your work. I have done a little foam work and having both hands free would have been a real nice thing. Anyway love you work and the way you teach. Great job.

@CorneliusSneedley
@CorneliusSneedley 8 лет назад
This is so interesting and informative, thanks so much for posting. One question I have, though. It seems to me that if you were to make the armor according to the pattern you took off the body form out of a thin material like cloth, it would fit perfectly. But when you make it in a thicker material like foam, the extra thickness of the foam would go in rather than out, and make the interior of the costume considerably smaller than the size of the original pattern. As I have no experience in this sort of thing, I feel I must be missing something. Does the foam stretch easily enough so this is not an issue? Or am I seeing an issue where there really isn't one?

I'm making an armored female jacket of sorts (your videos have given me a lot of confidence to finally give this a try) but I'm unsure about how to connect the top part. Should I cut out the full breast and shape it and then connect the upper piece to it or only cut the under part of the breast and leave it as one full piece to connect to the lower section?

My advice is to try and learn as you go. You can do it.

This is a VERY hard model to work with without the 12 year olds of the world absolutely losing it. Well played sir.

Ok this is probably going to sound weird, but I'm new to all of this. Would it be possible to use a hair dryer to seal the foam instead?

this is so awesome! can you use a hairdryer instead of a heat gun?

Bethan Kelly No sorry to say the hair dryer doesn't get hot enough to bend foam.

Fabulous tutorials, just a quick question though: If I was looking to make chest armor that extended beyond just a heart neckline/cup area (take a gander at the new lady Thor if you have the time - as that's what I'm trying to make), would I just trace out those extra pieces and glue them to the cups? I'm hoping this makes sense to you haha.

+Hyacinth Manesca I do not know for sure if it would work in place of barge, but a VERY strong adhesive that is a little more affordable than barge is called "E-6000" You can can get it at craft shops :) If you have a "Michaels" craft store, they have it there! and they usually have coupons on their website so you can get it for 40% off! (I got a 59.1mL tube for less than 5$) make sure to wear a mask while using it though!! I feel like it would be a good adhesive for many cosplay making needs! (it needs to set for 24 hours as well)

Hi Ted thank you for making this helpful tutorial! Can I ask a question? If I want to make a armor that can fit my body very well, should I tape my body instead of using female body form??
@EvilTedSmith
@EvilTedSmith 8 лет назад
Yes if you want it to fit you snug.

very nice, does L200 foam work like the foam you used on the helmet? im currently working on a new helmet for my next cosplay...though down the road i have an ambitious project of trying to make the MS-06S Zaku II Commander Type, the Char Aznable variant. that is going to be fun. keep up the awesome work.

Think of the song "Whip It." You thinking of it? Now sing along: "To cut your pattern out of foam-- you must Flip It..." I'm going to spend the next few hours coming up with the rest of those lyrics.
