I have a simple question: What do you use to cut your EVA foam or sintra. Most of the work i see around here have perfectly cut edges, whenever i try to build something one of my main problem is that everything i cut becomes fringy around the edges and therefore is harder to assemble with other...

The hauberk thingy looks great and you definitely have the looks for a Clegane, but I´d weahter the plate stuff a little more, I always use some acrylic colour with just a little water, paint the piece, let it dry a bit, and then rub it off with a cotton rug or something like that, you could...

I just wanted to share my first attempt on building a full scale armor with EVA-foam. I tried to do the king´s guard armor from game of thrones. i didn´t stick very closely to the origial and i know i have to improve on the details and on my accuracy but i´m quite pleased with the outcome...

SWEET!! I love the armour. What material and technique are you using to make your armour ?

Noone?

I`m wondering if anyone has ever used latex binder like this, to strenghten paper craft objects or seal foam and can tell me something about it. This stuff is usually mixed with colors to make them mora druable or it´s applied on wallpaper. Since its hilariously cheap i thought i could give it a...

Thx, I already tried PVA on another piece i made and it took a lot of coats to get near to the result i was hoping for and in the end after i painted it with acrylic paint there were cracs and wrinkles wherever the material bent a little.. Maybe i messed up... It was the first real piece i made...

I might add that i´m not a big fan of overly toxic substances so i´m not into bondo and stuff like that. Furthermore most of the things used around here to seal foam like plasti dip or LET are very hard to get here where i´m from

Hi I´m David i´m from Austria (not Australia!!) i found this site while i was working on an foam armour and it really helped me a lot. I mainly do fantasy or medieval armours, but i would like to do some other stuff as well.

I´m currently working on a Game of Thrones inspired Foam armour. For The breast Plate i used eva foam floor mats and for the details craft foam. Now after everything is glued together all the parts do look to much as if the were well just glued together. My question is if anyone has an idea how...
