That's so great again! I love to see how you turn simple foam in such realistic and expansive looking items. I wonder why Hollywood hasn't call you yet to become the greatest master of props in tinsel town. 😊
The Ultimate Everything Super Value Bundle. I've never regretted buying it. Just keeps giving :) I have to say this helmet is among the best builds in the package.
The helmet looks cool- but just to clarify, that's NOT a Centurion's helmet. A Tribune's maybe. But definitely not a Centurion's. Centurion's crests run from side to side, not front to back. :)
This roman helmet build came at exactly the right time!! I'm making a cosplay for a character who has a modified fantasy version of a roman helmet and this is the perfect base for it!!
Ow yeah, what a cool result. Haven't touched any foam for over 2 years, but this makes me wanne start again. It's always the painting that makes me quit on projects..... 😢
Yep, the painting can take up to 50% of the project time sometimes. I kinda like it though, because I don't have to think about anything while I'm doing it.
Was that a Cricut Maker you were using? It seems like you ought to be able to do the indents on the decorative rivets on one pass, then cut them on a second. Alternately, maybe you could re-create that process on the laser engraver? Does anyone have any good settings for cutting craft foam with an Explore Air 2? I've see a few UA-cam videos that suggest it's possible (for thin foam sheets), but I've never been able to get mine to work.....
Hi there, Yep it was a Maker that I used. I have been fooling around a bit with the Maker to try and get deep indentations like I get by hand, but I haven't found the magic yet. I can get some indentation, but I'm gonna try a few more things before I give up:) I am actually planning to do some experimenting using the deep cut blade to see if I can get any reasonable results, so I'll be sure to share anything I come up with that might be applicable to the other Cricut machines. I just wish their software was a little friendlier to those of us who like to experiment.....
Hey Chris i just have a quick question about the Ghostbusters proton pack. If i made my pack at 90% scale do i have to change the pvc pipe size or do i just make the size a little bit bigger?
I Love your videos. The finished work looks like movie quality and the instructions are clear without being boring. I am looking forward to the 3rd video. These helmets are so cool.
Thanks so much, it's always a bit of a balancing act trying to get all the info I want to share in to the video without rambling on and on..... Thanks for watching!
These helmets look beautiful. I love how different each one is. What a fun project!
Thank you! Cheers!

I guess maybe Hollywood doesn't have my number😁

Nice!
Great build! Are you going to build the rest of the costume?
Not sure yet, If I get lots of requests I'll do it.
I've always wanted to do a Marvin the Martian cosplay. I
This will be PERFECT!!!!!

@@LostWax but I just can't get a descent result... And that's frustrating.
@@KraKaKrwa Hmmm, yeah, that is frustrating...I'd be interested in your process and what might be going wrong...
They are magnificent and beautiful.

Yeah, I think you'll want to change the pipe size if you can, it just depends a bit on what you can find though....

I don't know why but I laughed so hard with your candidness "it's possible but I'm not gonna do it!" 🤣
😁
Looks awesome
Great job. Looks amazing!
Thank you! Cheers!
