Spent today securing the fake wooden planks to my mimic with troll boogers (contact cement) 🤧
Now to neaten up the edges and then it's plastidip time! I can't wait to get all the base painting done so I can start on the trim and eye sculpting. Still have a veeeery big tongue to sew and foam teeth to carve.
hey, what foam do you use for your foam crafts and where would I be able to get it? Are there any special carving tools I need for it? Tbh I'm interested and i just don't know where to start tbh
It's EVA foam. I use CF65 foam from poly-props.com they're based in the UK, and I don't know if they deliver anywhere else in the world (also I don't know where you are).
You don't need any special carving tools, a regular craft knife will work. I use a scalpel with a 10A blade to cut the foam and a Dremel to sand it to shape
i’ve been scared to post my cosplay stuff on here and i’m currently not comfortable showing my face on tumblr buuuut… here’s my V cosplay i wore recently :)
sadly the visor died at the convention while i was wearing it (plus i couldn’t see shit and i am already super nearsighted so that wouldn’t be a good idea)
Don't get into cosplay or else you too will become a cautionary tale who has thoughts like "Well, I really like this piece of media and I even have a standout favorite character in it, but do I actually want to make that much fucking armor"
WIPs of the process of foam clay sculpting Miwaks skull hat, this time in mini! Still have to smooth some parts, but have to wait for my small sized dremal mandrel to arrive.
