The Junkrat cosplay costume is fantastic so far :D Keep up the great work Zonbi! ( This is so entertaining to watch. It's so entertaining that I check RUclips more often than usual just to see if you uploaded XD )
if you ever do an arm that doesn't require a set design to follow, using thin elastic strings and connecting them to the last knuckle piece of your fingers //threading them through loops through the other pieces so they stay on top// and then attaching them to the base of the back of your hand can create a really cool mechanical tendon effect :) //also, this looks fantastic!! Really enjoy watching your videos :D
Hello Zonbi I was just curious what kind of foam did you use? I plan on using foam for a Shiro cosplay but I'm not sure what type of foam to use, please help, thank you
Angelina Garcia there are several types of foam to use for these kinds of projects. EVA foam the floor mats that look like square puzzle pieces are great for thicker armor I'm thinking like gaming armor. There is also a thinner EVA foam for a lighter more bendable foam. (Heat guns are where it's at for doing your own cosplay) And then there is the craft foam that you can get at walmart is all different colors like you see what she has. The craft foam is great for layering on top of the thicker EVA foam for more details and dimension. Most of this can be bought at walmart. The eva foam would be by the workout section. Usually two types to pick from (6 square pieces or a rolled up EVA mat) for $20. And the craft foam- well the craft section at walmart. :)
I gotta try out foam armour again, I just did McCree's arm and ended up doing it with worbla cause it's what I'm more familiar with but that foam hand looks so much more comfy haha
I wish I had the time to transfer all the patterns I make online for you guys to have. :^( Maybe one day I hope. I usually don't keep my patterns I make unfortunately.
What brand/type of super glue do you use? I'm working on a Hayseed Junkrat cosplay for my boyfriend to wear and your tutorials are very helpful! Thank you for sharing!
Sorry if someone asked this or if you answered this, but what foam did you use on the arm piece? I couldnt tell if it was EVA or craft foam. Thank you for making this by the way :)
Wow, amazing job! Working on a Junkrat cosplay myself right now and was wondering if you have any tips/templates/guides for assembling the arm? Thanks so much and keep up the great work.
Hi Zonbi! I love what you did with this cosplay, I am currently working on a McCree and his robot arm. I was wondering when you plastidipped the glove, did you spray the fabric too? Or did you plastidip the foam then glue it onto the glove? If its the first one (which it looks like) how did you stop the plastidip from soaking through the glove and sticking everything together?
Thank you! I plastidipped it when all the pieces were attached to the gloves. Painting every individual tiny piece is a bit tedious for me but taking your time and painting every individual piece will give you lovely results. The plasti-dip doesn't soak through the fabric but I do stick paper towels inside my gloves when I'm gluing the pieces on to prevent the fabric from sticking.
Quick question that I hope wasn't asked already, and if it is I apologize. Never worked with Plasti-Dip before but I plan on making a Zenyatta cosplay, and I was wondering if it bonds to fabric okay. I noticed you seemed to spray the glove after the pieces of foam have been attached. Does it hinder any form of mobility in the fabric of the glove? I'm more asking if it works with a certain fabric more or if its okay to just spray away.
It doesn't really "bond" to fabric well but it does dry! I found it doesn't impede mobility if you're working with a glove. With gloves, I usually plasti-dip the glove with foam bits attached. If I were more patient, I would take the time to plasti-dip every individual piece before attaching it to the glove--but I usually don't do that. I hope that helps!
Hi zonbi! I'm making my own sara ryder cosplay for pax aus this year and im curious about how many cans of plastidip you usually go through on a build? this is my first foam construction project and its been interesting researching diferent techniques and materials and I look forward to getting this one fone so I can start on the next! thanks!
Hey Zonbi! I know I'm very late to this video, but I was wondering if you made the pattern yourself, or did you buy it from someone? I'm currently working on my Junkrat arm and I'm struggling to make a pattern
I'm working on Mei boots. My first time working with EVA foam. What would you suggest I use to fill seams? Someone suggested wood glue but I read that can be bad to use on flexible items such as boots. What would you suggest?
Do you glue the bits to the glove then plastidip, or do you plastidip the bits first the glue it? I'd imagine plastidip on the glove would mess with the fabric.
hi! I'm working on a very similar cosplay and was wondering- and sorry if its a dumb question but, how exactly did u glue on the parts the the glove? do you directly apply the glue to the glove and then slide on the part or??
What type of foam are you using for your Junkrat cosplay? I bought wonder mat and was going to use that to build the cosplay, but wonder mat is thicker that the other foam mats. Also thanks you very much for making these helpful tutorial for Junkrat. I've been over thinking on my cosplay and your videos helped me with what to do next especially the riptire. i've already messed up my riptire and i don't want to start all over, but its alright this is my first time working with eva foam and it won't come out perfect the first time. i'll eventually do a redo when I get better with foam, worbla, worbla pie, and moldable plastic.
Thank you! I got some of the foam I'm using from Joanns' and Michael's' You can check it out in this video: Tips on Shopping for Cosplay Supplies: ruclips.net/video/3BfyhrFrbjk/видео.html
I love love love all of this it's so dang cool! Do you have any images of the foam before it was all glued together? I'm looking at making my own Junkrat cosplay too!
Hi zonbi I hope this wasn’t asked but I’m make Junkrat’s krampus skin this year as my first pro cosplay but I was wonder what mm foam you used for the parts of the arm/hand/fingers? Also what mm foam you used form the tire as well because I was think maybe 8mm Eva foam will be sturdy enough but bendable enough to make the shape of the tire. Unless I should go less?
Hi Zonbi I love all your videos and I'm making a Junkrat costume to and I was just wondering how did u make the the belt that the flask goes on and I really hope u get back to my question thank you
Can you pretty please answer this question!ok so im getting ready to make a rhys cosplay from borderlands and ive never made a bionic/robot arm before and I have very little money do you have any suggestions on how I make a cheap arm that looks good...also it would really help if you could maybe give me some pointers on how to start it I get the General concept from this video but rhys's arm is a bit different, please help!
If I could ask how you attach the foam parts to your glove when using glue? Do you stuff the glove with a fake hand then glue on, do u wear the glove as you glue the pieces on?
So hey there! I use a 3d animation software (Source Filmmaker) and i plan on using that for reference of his arm, but i was wondering how you got the grooves/cuts in the "metal"? Thank you so much if you respond, and i love the cosplay!!!
you put the details on with a heat tool? I need little designs like that on my cosplay, this is my first time lmao. I dunno what tool to get to make the little slices and designs like that? can anyone help/reccommend anything?
I'm building a junkrat cosplay myself at the moment, first ever attempt at cosplay and I'm really enjoying it, could I ask what you're using to do your weathering and scorch marks? Really enjoying your videos ^^
do you have any patters you used or anything? I've been working on trying to do a junkrat cosplay as well and i just. i messed it all up and it fell apart.
Ahh, this is so helpful, THANK YOU! If I may ask, what type and/or thickness of foam did you use? I want to make sure that I get the right foam for the job.
Hi there! I'm a little late to the game, but regardless I have a quick question: does the type of glove matter? I'm trying to be frugal with my money when it comes to pieces that are altered and painted. I see that the glove you have has padding- is that essential or not exactly? Thanks!
I like using those tactical gloves because the armor tends to stick better and remain more rigid, but you don't have to do that! I've sewn plenty of "hand turkey" gloves and stuck armor on top of them and they've worked out fine.
Hello! I just wanna take a moment and say that your absolutely amazing at cosplays! I have never cosplay'ed before so I have zero building experience hahah, But for Halloween i'm thinking of being Junkrat, although I don't know how to make the peices, and If you don't mind me asking what materials did you use suck as the foam and spray paint, and where did you get them? Thak you so much your so amazing!! once again thanks and have a wonderful day/night!
So I've been coaplaying for a few years now but just buying my props pre built. I have a convention next year and i eant to build reaper from overwatch. I was wondering what kind of foam you are using and if you have any tips for a first time builder
You can use EVA foam! I've seen a lot of cosplayers use the ones that come in those jigsaw mats for kids but I think they also sell in rolls on AliExpress or Amazon. The thicker ones are good for the base of props, I tend to use thinner ones for detailing
Hi!!
I'm just wondering where did you buy the base glove at?
Tutorial is definitely helpful, thank you!
I searched "tactical gloves" on Amazon. I don't have a preference when I choose as long as they're the right size!
bdw how did u join the gloves with the hand foam pieces??
ok hot glue and super glue .. got it
lol
Academy
I would never be able to do this time, effort, and creativity are not on my side..I applaud you, this is incredible 😭💕
I'm working on a JunkRat cosplay too but mines not NEARLY as good as yours is coming! And keep it up! I enjoy the little tips about these!
The Junkrat cosplay costume is fantastic so far :D Keep up the great work Zonbi! ( This is so entertaining to watch. It's so entertaining that I check RUclips more often than usual just to see if you uploaded XD )
I love your content. Usually when I work on something I put a playlist from you to watch.
Wow, you have raw talent!
I was shocked to see how well those came put after the Plastidip.
Great work!
Thank you!

Thank you so so SO MUCH for making these Junkrat videos! I've been working on my own Junkrat and these have been such a huge help!
You're so welcome! Thank YOU for watching them! Best of luck on your build!
How did you draw out the pieces for the fingers

Ahh, thank you for this! it's so helpful!
i'm working on Hyaseed Junkrat and I've never made a anything like this so it helped me out so much!
You are like my Number 1 best costume maker.
On YT
This video is super helpful! I'm going to be starting a FMA genderbend Edward soon, and these tips will really help me with making his arm!
Try Poly Foam Caulk Saver from Home Depot to take the place of the more expensive tubing you're using...
Do you think you can post patterns for the hand ?? I need to create a robot arm for my dystopian cosplay
I wish I had the time to transfer all the patterns I make online for you guys to have. :^( Maybe one day I hope. I usually don't keep my patterns I make unfortunately.

Thank you! I use EVA foam in varying thicknesses.
@@GraceWillow where is a good place at a major usa chain to buy the eva foam?
@@CreoVox I like TNT cosplay supply!
Wow, amazing job! Working on a Junkrat cosplay myself right now and was wondering if you have any tips/templates/guides for assembling the arm? Thanks so much and keep up the great work.
You're really good at this. Great video. I'd just slow down a little when you're showing off the completed product.

They say theres no such thing as the perfect woman. Id show whoever said that this video. What a beautiful creative babe.
Thanks so much for this! I am making a fake robotic arm for a cosplay I'm doing and this may help a lot 😊
amazing work!! also can i just say, you look like a real life brigitte!

Sweet! Thank you so much~
this is cool looking, but could you maybe give more details on how you cut it all out???
Hi, quick question, could I use hot glue to glue the foam pieces? And do you think I could a pipe for a base of the arm prosthetic?
You could! Hot glue may not hold as nicely as super glue or contact cement but if it's all you have it will work just fine :^)
Hi zonbi! I'm making my own sara ryder cosplay for pax aus this year and im curious about how many cans of plastidip you usually go through on a build? this is my first foam construction project and its been interesting researching diferent techniques and materials and I look forward to getting this one fone so I can start on the next!
