How to Make Starship Troopers M3 Tactical Helmet out of Foam Free Template Starship Troopers Cosplay

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

I'm a huge Starship Troopers fan! So,when I kept getting messages about Helldivers 2 I figured why make generic armor from a Starship Troopers knockoff just go for the real deal. In this video I show how to make the M3 Tactical Helmet worn by the mobile infantry. The Helmet is made out of eva foam so it is extremely light and takes paint really well. The video also includes Free PDF templates if you would like to make your own! Do your part and join the mobile infantry today! Service guarantees citizenship!

    Something that I find interesting is how this movie has endured; the aesthetics, the quotable lines, the general straight forward simplicity of the story premise keeps inspiring today. Just about half a year ago, a Starship Trooper game out on Steam that dovetails with the movie and it keeps the look and feel of media that came out in '97. Great build, now all you need is the rifle and you can finally blast that beetle you made from Foam Clay a couple of years back.

    It's funny. Maybe I'm remembering it wrong. I did see this in the theater with my buddies. I remember everyone hating this film when it came out, and now it's a classic nostalgia bait.

    ​@@richardkinkead7823 Yup, me too. I used to get into heated arguments with a couple of my friends as well, I remember walking out of the theater on opening week and being the only one who liked and defended it. It was brushed off as schlock at the time which is why I'm surprised at how it keeps getting referenced now.
