Making hybrid Foam + 3D Print Armor (Tips and How-To)
Ойын-сауық
Mixing EVA foam with 3D printed details can result in intricate, awesome projects! I share some tips and techniques on how to put together slick, high quality cosplay props and armors - and I think you'll find them useful! From prototyping, Fusion 360 insights, to sealing, priming and painting, both beginners and advanced crafters can learn something here.

I'd love to see a Fusion360 tutorial from you - especially the sheet metal-to-flat-pattern part!
I'd love to see your Fusion sheet metal technique. Creating the three-dimensional shape you want and unwrapping it to create the pattern out of flat EVA is one of those simple genius things, where you go "why didn't I think of that?" And loved your edge painting with the silver from an earlier armor vid in the series. It really adds so much....depth isn't the right word, but it like grounds it 🤔(?) in the material you're trying to emulate. Especially for what seems like a simple addition you know?
I'm doubling on this fusion 360 tutorial idea, it'd be great!
I would absolutely love that Fusion 360 sheet metal tutorial you mentioned!
I'm just getting into Fusion 360 and would love to see the sheet metal work. I would have never thought to use that!
WATER DOWN foam clay!!! great idea
I'll watch as many fusion 360 videos as you can stand to put out. Always interested in learning more about this program and cosplay/costuming.
Im always in for learning some more f360
I never thought of using watered down foam clay to hide seams. That’s a great idea. All this time I’ve been using caulking materials or something very similar. Thx for the advice
Nice go ahead and do a breakdown video
Those seamless closures are brilliant, wtf
You are real genius
God damn impressive, buddy!
Thanks for tips. Watching you from Russia.
Make please the Fusion 360 Video 👍

Definitely, also amazing video
Brilliant idea with the fusion 3D approach. Cheers 🥃
Amazing video as always! Can´t wait seeing you again at a con. :)
would love to see a breakdown, and LOVE the channel closure idea!!!
Which dremel attachment did you use to do the groves??? That is so clean!
Sooo cool! And so many awesome tips. Thanks for sharing so much with us.
I would like to see the process
Fusion 360 lesgouuuuu

PLEASE FUSION 360 VIDEO 3d modeling is something I have tried on and off for years with different programs with no luck at all even though I felt fairly comfortable with CAD when I was younger
What is that dremel attachment?? I need it!!
Hey @Zibartas, can you please tell me what filament do you print with on your Creality Ender-5? And do you use FDM or resin more for cosplay parts like in this video?

Mostly FDM! Just less messy lol. and I use either DevilDesign or SunLu filaments - whatever's on sale :D no matter what, for cosplay, it'll take a lot of sanding anyway :)

@@Zibartas Awesome, thanks so much! I just purchased my first printer yesterday (an FDM, the Bambu P1S), and you were one of my main inspirations for buying it ASAP. I can't wait to make hinges and gears for servos and misc gadgets. I look forward to more vids. Take care!
