JFcustom's FOAM files

Google would probably redirect people with crafting questions to the RPF,and since they're here already,I think all of us should be a little bit more patient towards newcomers.No-one likes to be snapped at.
Are the questions sometimes annoying or unnecessary? Sure,not saying that,but in order to not scare people away from this fine forum,try remain neutral.The behaviour of one reflects on us all.

Well said sir.

I do have a question and if it has been asked before I apologize in advance. When working with pepkura is it better to use foam or another material?

Woah, calm down there. Fair enough. But to that end, please, thank you, and common courtesy are also not too much to ask. And with all due respect, implying that Google searches are just going to direct people here anyways can encourage some people to not follow through with their own due diligence before asking questions. JonH did, so good one him. And I didn't see anyone else responding to his requests forhelp, twice no less. So don't judge.

Foam requires a lot less cutting (besides obviously using foam and not paper lol), but at the sacrifice of some detail. Also, your work area might help decide what you'd prefer to use; Paper pepakura is typically hardened with fiberglass resin or epoxy, and the chemicals involved can make it difficult to work with in enclosed spaces. If I was just starting out, I would probably try foam first to get the hang of things. :)

Agreed.

In order to reply in the forum,you have to be registered.People who go through the trouble of registering,are usually serious about their creative endeavours.

I/they would have if there was information to share.

No need to get upset with me.I was just suggesting to remain patient and polite in order to keep people around.That's all...

I apologize ahead of time if I asked this earlier but I been looking for a guyver 2 helmet pep file (foam prefer but not necessary). I was wondering if anyone here can direct me to someone who can take on a commission for that particular request?
 
There are Guyver files on page 1,but I don't know whether that is the suit you're looking for...
In the mean time you can use the search bar at the top right of this page to search the forum.

Thanks for the help and the suggestion, I will definitely take it into consideration.
One last question though it's probably a stupid one so I'm sorry in advance. Is foam hard or easy to sand in order to get smooth edges?

Yeah I know that's definitely Guyver 1 files and guyver 3 helm. i tried looking over on google and the search doesn't seem anyone have made a pep file of it so that's why I was wondering if anyone out there would take a commission for that particular character I have been seeking for :D

In general you could use a Dremel tool with sanding wheel,but some foam types like DuraFoam which I use are actually sandable.

We have a few great 3D modelers that could probably take a model from a game/movie and convert it to .pdo files (for a fee I recon).I'm sure they're getting this as we speak,so bare with me.

Okay no problem but if it is from movie or game I don't recall Guyver 2 ever being shown but maybe in Anime and a Figure model only but I could be wrong... but I am almost certain though lol =p
 
I've searched here and in the main Marvel Costume sub, but haven't been able to find what scale people have used for an adult sized Loki helmet (23-24")? Stock scale?

I am not sure what a 3D modeler needs in order to duplicate it.Anyone else?
