You have the foam piece and make a line with a pen where you wanna have this kind of sharp line on your suit :)

You cut out an triangle out of the foam like shown in the photo below :)

3. Step

You have cut out the triangle and the then you put some hot glue into this triangle and glue it with the angle you want it to be together :) Finish :D

I'll do that for sure. And just one more thing, what's the size and thickness of your foam sheets that you used?

And how many were needed for the whole suit?

That stuff is Plastazote LD45 with 5mm thickness. I haven't seen anyone from the US use it so far. In my opinion Plastazote is so much better to work with than Evazote. It makes a huge difference.

It has a thickness of 10 mm for almost every part of the suit :) some times I used 5 mm. I had to redo an large amount of parts because I didnt like the finish but I think about 5-6 qm should be more than enough ! :)

I used Plastazote ld 45 with 10 mm the most but that doesnt matter :) Yeah plastazote is so much better specially the way you can bend it with a heat gun and so on :)

Qm is short for Quadratmeter which means squaremeters. You get the idea.

@Max5796

wow - der Anzug sieht einfach nur fantastisch aus ! ich bin erst seit kurzem in der Community und hab mir "mal eben" kurz vor halloween gedacht ich baue sowas auch

den aufwand total unterschätzt (und die kosten) so das ich nur helm & handschuhe fertig bekommen habe ...
die qualität und die detailtreue zum original seien mal dahingestellt, aber es war mein erstes Projekt und für knapp 3 wochen arbeit ist es ausreichend gut geworden für diesen
einen abend ^^

habe mir deine Doku über den Anzug mal genauer angesehen und denke darüber nach ebenfalls mit dem Plastazote einen neuen Anzug zu beginnen :D

Sieht auf jeden fall Klasse aus !! Ja man unterschätzt echt sehr leicht wie viel Arbeit in so einem Anzug steckt und was er an Kosten verursacht allein die Kosten für die Farben sind immens wenn man gute Farben haben möchte :) Du siehst ja das ich schon 1 jahr gebraucht habe um den Anzug in der Qualität bewerkstelligt zu bekommen ( natürlich mit Sommerpause :D ). Also ich kann dir Plastazote nur empfehlen ist wirklich ein tolles Material für einen Anzug und meines erachtens der beste Schaumstoff für so Arbeiten :) Bei Fragen meld dich einfach ich stehe immer gerne rede und antwort.

Max

Ach und vielen Dank für dein positives Feedback :)

Yes I will make a few photos of the me wearing it when the lights are here but the lights I ordered from UK take a bit longer so I just cant go on with the suit yet except from a few small adjustments and coverparts :) But I think in one week I will have everything I need
