This is a tutorial on how to make a great looking pair of knight gauntlets out of craft foam. You just need some simple supplies like foam, paint and a clothes iron. I show you how to do it and I give you the template for the pieces. The template also includes two different hand sizes. These gauntlets look terrific and you can paint them any way you like and add some knightly details.
The Template and Tutorial are on my website here:

Cool video but.. you have a ghost. At 3:26 to the right of your hand on the iron, theres a little block on the floor that moves. (By itself!)

@epicfantasy 10 лет назад

good eye! That's kind of strange.

@LittleTas12 10 лет назад

epicfantasy Oh snap! What are you going to do about your newly-discovered ghost?

@epicfantasy 10 лет назад

If that ghost requests a project then I will make it one!

@Rynax- 10 лет назад

This is so awesome! Bet you can use the same technique to make bracers, chest armor, shoulder pads... the whole thing! You'd be the Craft Foam Knight! :D *thumbs up*

@epicfantasy 10 лет назад

Thanks for the suggestion and the thumbs up. We might do more armor like this. It looks so good!

@PatTanzi 10 лет назад

epicfantasy Hey Will, do you think that you could possibly make the "Moonlight Greatsword" from dark souls and dark souls 2? A beautiful sword that may be pretty fun an easy. I was thinking like copper wire for the guard and just a nice light blue for the blade.. let me know what you think.

@vivianephona 8 лет назад

Thank you so much for this tutorial! I'm not using the exact pattern but I've never made any sort of armor before and watching this tutorial is giving me exactly what I need to know. I might send you a picture or something when it's done! Thank you so much!

@stevecollins6492 5 лет назад

Hey man. About halfway through making the whole set from you videos. Amazing projects!!!

@epicfantasy 5 лет назад

Thanks and Have fun!

@Neffertity 7 лет назад

Wow, what a great idea for gauntlets. :D I had made a shoulder plate for my ren faire costume last year out of a camping mat, and the texture was done using a heat tool and melting the edges to make it look like dragon skin. It came out really well, but it was so time consuming. I wish I would've seen this beforehand. Would've made things so much easier and cost effective. :D

@zuzkaszaboova7832 10 лет назад

This totally saved me :D My gauntlets broke 2 days before a big LARP just finished making these gauntlets and I have to say I am impressed. They look grate :3

@lucasshigemitsu94 8 лет назад

This is so simple and if you put lots of detail than it comes out great thx for the tutorial

@CAP198462 10 лет назад

that's a good template you made. I used it to make a cheap and cheerful Army of Darkness gauntlet. Now, with slight modifications to it, I'm making a nazgul gauntlet as well.

@epicfantasy 10 лет назад

Cool!

@aceflamingo 9 лет назад

I want to cry thank you so much for making this

@DIRTKNAPFX 9 лет назад

What a great video! Very helpful for my Ash Army of Darkness gauntlet. Thank you

@chriscryptid35 10 лет назад

Soooooooo cool - I ended up last year actually making a sci-if esque gauntlet for a vfx class, and it was so clunky and huge. I used the foam from the giant puzzle pieces you'd put in your kids room on the floor, and it made it impossible to do knuckles and fingers, so I ended up using a paper craft sort of method, but I really wish I'd thought of this! Looks a lot stronger too!

@RichardTheValiantFoolFox 9 лет назад

get some gold paint and flat back gem stones to set on the back of the hand and you've got the infinity gauntlet from marvel

@commanderspyder5432 9 лет назад

+Richard Fox Nice idea, might have to do that myself lol

@elnacho75 10 лет назад

excellent! i love this project! I can't wait for the forge and the project with real steel! thumbs up from Australia!

@noerknown 8 лет назад

Almost everyone else was making their's from metal sheets and expensive tools. Thanks for uploading this!

@keybladegirl7 8 лет назад

I've been cosplaying for a few years and they've always been so boring and normal. I've recently wanted to cosplay from a video game and I needed ideas to make this kind of glove and this video was perfect! I'm working on it later today with a few modifications and a slightly different paint job but I know it's going to turn out perfect! Thank you so much for this wonderful and easy idea to help me make a better cosplay.

@kabirfiroz4174 9 лет назад

You are amazing my friend. The first thing I learnt from you was the spartan chest piece, and was thinking about adding it to the armor

@PunkX2000 9 лет назад

Before I moved out of my Grandmother's house, I used this template to make this gauntlet out of Yu-Gi-Oh cards instead of foam. I used what I learned from you and my personal lessons from Vedetta Marie. I should make another set when I get the time off from work.

@epicfantasy 9 лет назад

PunkX2000 Good creativity. I like it!

@АнастасияСтепанова-я5я 8 лет назад

Starting the project now for my wow cosplay. I'm also going to use the wrist armor to go with. Thank you for this tutorial, no way I would have been able to complete this project without it!

@jose360live 9 лет назад

Man, just a big thank you! I've been searching for templates to make one of these, but in mild steel. You saved my ass! Thank you again.I'm gonna take a look at your other videos

@ArtoriasB 7 лет назад

@shardliveactionroleplaying1113 9 лет назад

Cool tutorial, loads of uses for this type of costuming

@joeyketail5587 9 лет назад

Holy shit, I never thought that I would find such an easy, non-expensive way to make this! Definitely got me to subscribe and like!

@SP8inc 10 лет назад

WOW, it looks amazing!! It really looks like the real deal! You guys are genius. Thank you! A small question, could I use white glue instead of the sealant to harden it up?Thanks!

@SP8inc 10 лет назад

Thanks!

@backonlazer791 10 лет назад

SP Inc. My guess is that you could. If you do multiple layers and let it dry in between, you can even make it a lot more rigid and armor-like than with sealant. =)

@DaMy2345 8 лет назад
