I remember watching these videos as a young kid, as soon as they came out from very early on. Super nostalgic watching now, being a kid was so much fun.

I remember watching these videos when I was pretty young. Had o have been like 10 at least. I decided to go back and watch some stuff because I ended up growing into the aspirations of being a film maker, and I wanted a nostalgia kick. I'm just looking at these videos and how they're produced and the quality and love and effort that went into them and reminiscing on the good ole days of KZread. I know that's such a cheesy thing to say but it's the truth. I don't have any issue with Fortnite or CoD vids or anything it's just so saturated with them that unique stuff like Indy Mogul type channels are hard to come by now. I miss these guys. I remember the first host is who was on when I started watching, cant remember his name though. I think it was Jeff or something? Idk I'll find it here in a bit with some more searching Lol.

I am impressed. Looks totally awesome. You're instructions are detailed enough. And it looks like something I could do at home. Perfect.

helpful tip : when hot glueing on the rough side. always sand it smooth. that way the glue will hold better. contact cement also works great. plasty dip is great to coat it before painting.

I remember watching these videos back when they came out, inspired me to start working on cosplay and going to conventions.

it annoys me they all say it's cheap but never add in that some people don't own heat guns or Drexel tools

@CynUnion-ji9uj

they actually factored in the price of the heat gun this time around, and when it comes to the rotary tool and soldering iron you could ask your friends and family or buy them once and have them for any project.

Dude, your video helped me a lot! I was looking for inspirations and tutorials to create my sci-fi armor and you answered all my questions in just 6 minutes. You are amazing, brother!

“As safe as I’m creative.”...I will not survive this build

How do you do the templates. All I need is the back template, and I'm good to go

the foam is pretty easy to find. Aside from department stores, i found it in different colors at a toys r us, a dim gray in a retail workout section (floor foam, it also had a coarse side that could be an armor feature). also in the camping section it had an olive drab green mat selection. they arent that hard to find

13 years already?! It feels like yesterday watching this videos for the very First time.

Hi your videos are fantastic.. My grandson who's 5 loves watching how you make stuff...he is really into the robot "Atom' from the movie Reel Steel Please could you give us some tips on how we could do His Head And body Please.

Four inch PVC pipe cut on one side and heated to 375° so it becomes pliable makes a 14 inch wide plate that can be molded in to any shape you want. Be careful of the fumes it puts off. I use a heat gun outside to avoid that then a lil sand paper and some krylon paint. That's how I made mine

I finally finished my set of armor today. I am really proud of it. It turned out way better than I expected. Thanks IndyMogul.

pretty nice for a quick cheep build. I like that you used a soldering iron with a knife blade tip that was pretty cool. Looks like it makes it much easier to cut then using a carpet knife.

as a kid this was always my number 1 go to channel after school

Bring this show back

I'm gonna try to utilize this to make a Kamen Rider Kiva cosplay. :D

The Design is way ahead of its time.

Been looking for this video for a couple of days now. Plan to use this technique to make my truck look armoured.

If you use a streak metal cover on foam armor, you can be able to twist it around easier and you can give it a scrapy/rusty look that is easy to paint over. I use this on making heavy weapons for costumes, but you can use it on robotic armour...

WOW! Great/simple strait forward w/o all the mindless droning. Good job.

Dude I so stumbled across your video and let me tell you I'm hooked great tutorial and explanation on how to DIY. Keep up the awesome work!

Good times I miss this video

Modified this to make a space suite, AWESOME!

this really helped with my vayne cosplay! I also like how you made a difficulty level and specific price range, so i went in prepared when making my stuff. Even though the armor pieces i made were small, this still helped alot via detailing.

Amazing! Loved it! Can't wait to start!

Looks way more hi tec than just painted foam! Well done. Loving the "Pulse Rifle" like gun on the final photo too hehe

Great stuff. EVA tiles are becoming more popular for costuming at conventions. We sell the EVA tiles, and nearly everything else used, at my work. :-) PS. In case anyone's interested EVA stands for Expanded Vinyl Acetate. It can be glued with adhesive known as "contact adhesive".-The stuff used for gluing rubber to metal. Contact adhesive will probably be easier to use than hot glue (and it won't melt the EVA), but it has to be held in place while the glue dries.

You could use paint that has sheen to it if you are outside to give it the next step of metal (maybe car spray paint). Also texture spray paints could add feel to it if you want an opposite approach like a robot that has been rusting away or moss grown over it.

This was the best show on KZread

I've been wanting to create armor and this was a fantastic post. I will do this myself but more importantly I will be going through all your videos becuase you did a great job showing how to do something reasonably price so thanks again.

Thnx for this armor vid! My friend and i are going paintballing and he suggested armor so i showed him this video. two weeks and we will be in combat sporting this kind of armor!

I miss this fuckin guy and the stuff they used to do. True inspiration this whole channel.

Dude your armor was amazing! It honestly looked like something from a real professional movie. You're absolutely talented when it comes to art and design. I hope you make lot's more videos in the future, I love your videos, and you're awesome.

I miss this series. This one was my favorite episode.

If you are up to it try and do some casting with foam and aluminum and try plaiting it more so you can bend in it and maintain mobility and try using some fabric to hold it together

Being back Indy Mogul!!!

Fantastic, thanks for sharing. Only thing is when heated foam release toxic fumes, not to mention release of dust if sanded. Safety first: protect your lungs

Man I wish I seen this video before I bought thinner foam and began working on my cosplay armor... Going to start from scratch now... Awesome tutorial.

thank you Indy Mogul for this costume build

I realy miss this guy.I saw him from the movie Fallout:Nuka break

you can buy the foam mats at walmart, kmart, meijer, and sometimes target. They are located in the work out equipment section. They are used for going under work out equipment. It cost about 25 bucks for six of them. :) I hope this helps.

This is a great idea for a cheap costume. Keep the ideas coming.

WOW ,I'm going to make a Mass effect armor!! I've been trying to find an easy technique to do it a long time now (I've seen this technique before but I thought I was too hard for me ) tnxx

Awesome look I live in Florida so I don't recommend hot glue! there are some great glues that melt plastics for a tighter bond and a couple of chicago screws for the straps!

ive heard about the heat gun method and i always thought it would be horrible and painful to do since ive never done anything like this before and i was thinking about having a go but it actually looks easier than i thought, also the armour looks ace!

Great build. I have been wanting to make one of these for a while but I never could find something for my budget, I think I can handle this though. Can't wait to give it a try.

okay wow that was actually super helpful and ridiculously easy.

I've used a hairdryer as a heat gun it all works similar just takes a bit more time and be careful not to melt the foam

This is the first one I've watced and you did a rad job. I'd like to see a more detailed build video on either the arm piece at the end or even a different method for robot arms in general.

Thanks, this information will be really helpful when building my Imperial Guardsman armour.

Good tutorial! Very easy and helpful. Thanks

My country, only in recent years started having a Cosplay event... I am attending this year's event (2013)... this video is gona help me sooooooooo much. thanks man... (dont worry... will subscribe as soon as i post this comment) Respect!!!!

Thank you for posting this! It is going to help me so much for my Megacon costume! I'm going to be the Titanfall CQB Female!

just seeing this episode gave me an idea for a sci fi film

I was so happy once I saw this video, I'm going to try to make something with these tips this weekend.

Thanks for making this. Great effort!

the armor is very Army of Two, very nice. I think I might have to giver a shot.thanks for the post.

I'm makeing sith battle armour using this technique. I am molding the foam and sewing/glueing it to a skintight zenti suit and its looking pretty baddass!

very cool thx guys totally going to do this method very easy looking KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!!!!

That's really cool man. I rarely log into youtube to to kudos someone (like half a dozen times ever), but very cool, thumbs up!

Great tutorial, makes something complicated look easy

i made one of these for this up coming Halloween and its freaking awesome thx you guys for helping me

great work, nicely done!

yes absolutely. I made a set of armor and that did work.

you make the best halloween costumes ever Indy mogul.

This is way better than the new one.

awesome!! im going to use this to make quan chi's armor from mortal kombat mythologies sub zero. cant wait to do this!!

So Indy Mogul is back up in 2019 but I left that video so I could watch Zack do his thing. Sorry, I just loved this guy because of Nuka Break!

Great job! I use PVC sheeting for most of my armor builds. Keep up the good work!

I'm so glad I found this, I think I'll be able to use this to make my transformer armor.

One tip i have for your future foam builds, is that you should always seal your foam before you paint it, and the best way to seal it is either cover it with PVA glue or spray it down with some Plasti-Dip
