I actually use foam to make molds for aluminum casting. A lot more heavy for cosplay but a lot more durable. Great short video.👍

[@KamuiCosplay]

Oh wo, that’s super interesting! Would be too scared to use any metal for my costumes, ga ha! 😅

[@RoseKindred]

Jeremy, do you use "lost wax" casting for your method? I know it is doable with poly-foam but never tried EVA. Or do you remove the foam after packing the sand?

[@jeremyortiz2927]

@@RoseKindred I remove the foam after compacting the sand. I've used wax a couple of times before but I wasn't too happy about the results. I think it was my fault though; I was trying to get too much detail out of the wax.

[@RoseKindred]

@@jeremyortiz2927 Ah, thanks for the answer. I did not mean the wax exactly, well it works great for jewelry and other small items, just that is what the technique of "burning away" is called. I was always scared to try it with foam since I know it is not that good to smelt, and I would expect EVA to be worse.
If you have a 3D printer there is also resin that is made to be melted away, if you want to try highly detailed items.

[@johnvonmartin7501]

​​@@KamuiCosplayjust cast your foam works into a metal. I would prefer a legit metal that has viking feels over that is just an imitation. There are tons of diy tutorials of metal casting.

[@RoseKindred]

Nice. Lovely to see a pro cosplayer showcase the same way I do it. Makes me feel a tad bit validated.

[@grace6701]

Another method for this I've used in the past involved mixing sand with wood glue and then applying it. It's easy to overdo it on the sand but if you get the ratio right it's good for a very specific look

[@TheWireMan94]

This is wonderful! ive always found my metal to be too plain and looking "plastic-y" gonna use your texturing method, thank you!

[@Glory2Snowstar]

Super handy for my Iron Valiant cosplay, thank you so much!!!!

[@Tobithepurpleducc]

What do I do if I don’t have any of this except for the foam and the black paint

[@DebAitken]

Hi! I’m new to your page and to making things out of foam! 😅 I was wondering when can you mix the primer with color paint vs priming solo first and then painting? Thanks! I love your videos!

[@JayPlaysEverything]

Well that definitely won't stop a sword!

[@darker4509]

You are phenomenal

[@ajtheva6694]

Hi do you have a video explaining how to make the velcro look like leather straps? Cause I'm a little lost with it and can use some help. Pretty please

[@io_Asakura]

[@abaddonsfx800]

Any recommendations for the artist gel? I'm looking for the bests

[@poeravatua722]

Toutes tes créations j❤

[@dillardphilosophy3333]

Have you ever tried to use vinyl wrap over foam?

[@juliaprado.164]

Sempre vejo pessoas falando de usar foram mas nunca consigo achar e quando acho fica uns 200 reais por pouca coisa

[@faketear2854]

where i can find gel like that,i searched on internet but all look different

[@zealman18]

do you apply a clear coat sealing on at the end? I would be worried the wax paint might rub off with use

[@eifosa]

That artist gel that you are using, what kind is it? There are so much to choose from and I can't find anything in my country that just says "artist gel".

[@seenisalmansalman5254]

I love ❤❤❤❤💘💘💘💝💝💝❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👌👌👌👌

[@yaffa2099]

Can you substitute the first step with Plasti Dip?

[@jamesrose1460]

It's called "Drybrushing"

[@normanantoniomasissoto1549]

[@HindustaaniSher2]

PLEASE 😢

[@KamuiCosplay]

Sorry, I don’t do any commissions. But I‘m sure you can do it yourself as well! Crafting is super fun and actually not that difficult! 😊

[@HindustaaniSher2]

@@KamuiCosplay Thanks for reply,
But I need a 3d printing artist cuz I wanna do a face reveal in future but to make my video, I need a helmet which is specially designed to fullfill my needs like Marshmallow.
I think you are good at this and you will help me, so...
