There's a materials list a the bottom of the product description on Etsy. As for the amount of foam, I'm not sure exactly, but with a 3x1 meter sheet of 8mm foam, and a 1x1 meter sheet of every other thicknesses specified on the templates, you should have more than enough. I hope this helps!

How do you heat form foam? only thing I can think of that I could use that I have would be a hair dryer. Also, would epoxy 2 work or is contact cement needed?

A hairdryer doesn't get hot enough. You'll need a heat gun which you can get for as little as 20$. Expoxy won't work. You need contact cement, and super glue for the smaller parts.

Hi. Great video! Will be wanting to purchase a set of blueprints, juat a quick question. Do your templates show which parts need to be certain foam thickness? And also does it inlclude a shopping list? Just so i know how much foam to purchase. Many tha ks for the incredible video!

So for buying the sheets of foam for the armour. If I bought a 35" × 59" sheet roughly how many of those would I need. Like would 1 8mm and 1 6mm sheet of that do it?

Most of the armor is pretty simple to make, so if you put in the time and don't rush the process, you can totally pull it off. If it's your first time making an armor like this, skip the small intricate details and focus on what's most important :)
