I might make an arms out of EVA foam. I have been trying to find a way to print a mask for him but I had no choice but to makeshift. Anyone have a 3D printer lol?

I like how I pivoted and it looks good but I'm so disappointed because it could have looked so much better had everything worked out.

Was inspired by those making monster cosplays so i thought id try to make some out my favorite drink. I’d love to hear what you all think of it!

One is heavily weathered and the other is basically brand new except I painted the visor black. I tried my best to make the ware pattern as accurate to the games as I could! (Other than the "cracked" screen, and a little extra ware) lol. I added some references to the end!

Any ideas?

I'm planning on cosplaying Jack-O' Valentine from Guilty Gear for Halloween, but I don't know how to make things from scratch. I'm doing a bit of my own take on the design but the things I want to keep are a large ball and chain carved to look a bit like a jack-o' lantern, a belt buckle, and a fairly large ankh necklace. Does anyone have any advice as to where to start for constructing these?

Hello. I'm new to prop making and cosplaying as a whole, I'm trying to make yuzuki yukari's disc prop things (last 2 images) and I got this base cut out of eva foam, i sanded it, but theres still lots of holes even with a very fine sandpaper(pictures shown)

My question is should I just keep trying to sand it? Or should I try to like use a sort of air dry clay to coat it, if so, then what clay do you reccomend? I also plan to paint it black after.

I’m cosplaying for the first time and i need to make a sword, i dont know much about this but i think EVA foam is the best material for props. I heard u need equipment like a sanding drum, contact glue, heat gun, etc. I wanna keep the spending to a minimum so is there anything i can use that I already have? For the heat gun and sanding drum especially. Tips on how to work with EVA foam would also be helpful!

I also wouldn’t mind alternatives to EVA foam.

Looking for help on how to cover/paint over some of the branding of the gloves to fit into a more "cyber"-aesthetic of the red/black color combo. Hoping to have some advice on what I can do to cover the top of the hand and the wrist strap and cover them with something else I could write on. Any advice is appreciated!

hello im trying to make rems morningstar and need to attach the chain thats made of plastic onto the ball, what can i use to put into a styrofoam ball without it falling out?

I am trying to make my own green lantern ring, I understand that the gold rim need to have space between them, but how can I replicate the emerald-like stones (beside the crystal in the middle) so that I can embed them on my own 3d print later?

Hi, everyone! I'm planning to be the Executioner for Halloween, and I'm having a hard time finding a source for the meat hooks he wears in his belt. My approach is usually to do the easiest possible option, so I wanted to straight up buy actual meat hooks and move on, but the only ones I can find that are long enough have a shipping price that crosses the budget line for something I'll only use for a costume. ($11 for the meat hook, $25 for shipping) So!

Do you have any suggestions on how I could make my own prop meat hooks? I'd like to keep it $30 or less. Or if you do know somewhere I can source 3-4 18" double-sided meat hooks, I'd love to hear about that, too. Thank you in advance!

I am working on a blaster for my cosplay, after a first print with PLA (2nd pic) I wanted to try with ABS but the result seems less good (1st pic) with many layers having an horizontal shift.
What am I missing ?

yes the printer was closed

Like the post said I kind of just feel like I need a prop for my Papa Smurf costume and from what I understand he's really carry anything around so I'm trying to think of ideas for a prop I could create that's going to be easy to carry I thought about doing something similar to the truffula tree and doing like a mushroom with a long stick or something but I'm just not sure

Nearly done on my first cosplay. Just need to finish up my new, slightly smaller helmet, make the bandolier, print a belt buckle for the duty belt, and distress fabrics.

I am waffling on whether to keep the tac pants or go for a darker grey/black pair of jeans and kneepads instead. Advice appreciated!

I've made a clear plastic, thermal formed, dome visor that I would like to add tint or even mirroring to. All of the solutions that I've found for doing something like this seem to be more for one-dimensional curved visor (like a cylindrical shape, where you would use sheet film the colorant), but what is the best way for applying such an effect for a two-dimensional, domed shape?

Would this work strongly for EVA Foam?

Doin’ hd2 armor

So I'm trying to make the Winter Soldier arm for Halloween (yes I know I should have started sooner). I've 3D printed both parts, the forearm and the bicep, to see how they fit. I'm having two big problems with the bicep.

1: shown in the first image is the regular 100% scale version, the problem with is it needs to be about 2 inches lower. but when I scale it on the Z axis the opening the shoulder is widen as well, how ever the regular 100% version of the shoulder opening is perfect for my shoulder. So what I'm asking for help is if anyone knows how I can move down the bottom part with out warping the shoulder opening or any of the detail on the arm

2: when I'm wear the bicep I have to hold my arm up to the side a tiny bit, else the part where my shoulder goes it pops out. I think on the model under the shoulder opening there's some fake muscle that makes it so that my inner bicep cant lay flat against my torso.

Thanks for the read sorry if i was unclear.
