Howdy all, found this forum hub just yesterday and already i'm amazed at what you've got going on in here. My goal is to build a Voltron suit (I know that there are currently two threads on this topic in the Non-pred section, but I thought help was a better section for my post).
However unlike the other two users threads (Jax Archillies and grim_hammer your input would be highly valued) I am a total noob in the world of foam crafting. I have been cosplaying for several years now, slowly getting more elaborate and daring in my creations however one of my all-time fantasies was to create a Voltron costume.
I understand the time demands this kind of project will have and am still willing to go ahead.
However what my question at this point is, is "How do I get started in the foamcrafting world?"
Questions like:
-What kind of tools will I require
-What kind of steps are there before we get to the foamwork (I read something about cardboard mock-ups)
-What kind of expenses are usually associated with this kind of project
I searched the site for tutorials of this nature, but was unable to find anything that went all the way back to a basic level.
Many thanks in advance,
Synonym
