Thank you so much for making such a detailed, and helpful video. Many others just skimmed details and little tips, but you mastered it. I recently made a plague doctor mask and I'd say it looks okay... but, now that ive seen this video, I can learn from you and make a duplicate!
@@tillycxz Here's a tip: You can use A/C tape (or metal tape) to help mold your structure. The only disadvantage is that you can see the outline of the tape on the foam, and black paint comes off of it really easy. So, I took a metal spongey thingy (sorry, I have no clue what its called) and rubbed of some of the paint to make it look used and old.
This is a great tutorial! I love that you showed the mistakes and how you dealt with them. I love all the little details you added. The stitches especially are a great touch. This is a really practical and useful tutorial!
Astro Gallus Thank you! I show the mistakes because I figure it’s something other people might do too, and if I point it out first then it spares other people some time 😊 I’m glad you found this useful!
@@tillycxz - Yes, showing the mistakes is really helpful, and I love the fix you made with the eye surrounds. Honestly, it looked even better - more complex and detailed. I know from personal experience that sometimes the mistakes can become features. It is really helpful to show all of the mistakes and your creative fixes! :-) Thank you!!
By far my favorite work of yours! 🖤 The subtlest of details like the shimmer paint and colors make this look so realistic like leather and stitches. I keep thinking of Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood. 😆
Thank you! Making this makes me want to try remaking this in leather one day so it'll be more long lasting. I only ever watched my brother play Assassin's Creed and all I remember of it is parkour through ancient cities 😂
Marion Jacobson I’ve never tried sewing foam together with a sewing machine. Let me know how that goes! I’m thinking since foam isn’t as easily workable as fabric, maybe flat seams for most of the seams except the main top and bottom seam? And maybe superimposed seams for those, if that makes sense? I’m trying to think of how leather masks would be constructed and I think you can approach it the same way.
@@tillycxz you're right it only worked on the first pair of seams. Back to gluing. Superglue was a fail. I'm going to try some Weld Compound from my hubby's workshop.
Marion Jacobson I’ve found that I’ve had varying success with different brands of super glue. I actually prefer it to contact glue, but I’ve found that the UHU brand is super unforgiving (if something accidentally sticks to a part you’ve applied glue on, the it’s just going to be there forever) where as my local supermarket’s brand gives just enough play time and if I press the seams together for about 30secs it’ll hold.
Hi, your tutorial is amazing, it's easy and very helpful, I want to ask about a craft foam, I want to order it but I don't know which size it has to be, in your video it looks like it's the standard 2 mm one, but I'm not sure could you tell me which one it has to be?
I’m glad you found it helpful! I used 3mm craft foam because that was what my local art store was selling. I think 2mm should be fine, just be careful if you decide to add a removable lining or use Velcro scraps instead of ribbons to hold it up since it might have a higher risk of tearing.
What size mm foam did you use? I was originally planning to get craft foam from the dollar store but I am not sure if it should be thicker than the standard, cheap foam? It's also funny because I was going to sew a mask using that same pattern from suntree but now I am seeing that it will be easier to customize small details on top of the mask by using foam.
PresidentMercury I used standard 3mm A4 sized pieces of craft foam as that’s what I had on hand. It does mean that you have to be careful with things like removing the cloth lining (if you decide to do that) because pulling too hard might tear the foam.

one of the best tutorials I've seen so far
Thank you!
The stitches really added a lot! I’m like you, when it comes to sewing I always go over the top.....
Thanks! I love adding more and more details to everything. Sometimes it gets a bit out of hand...
Oops-
Time to scare the daylight out of people.
(I’ve always wanted to get/make a plague doctor mask, but now I have a reason to.)
Hahaha! Yes! I'd love to see your version of it when you're done.

Someone Random I’m glad you found this helpful! I’d love to see your finished version of the mask if you ever post it up online 😊
Thank you!! Ill definitely consider it!

I was getting ready to purchase a premade one but I knew I wanted to make my own. And now this made it a lot easier.
I’m glad you found this useful! Have fun crafting!

Perfect thing to make for Halloween. Almost done with mine.
Awesome! Have a great Halloween!
Global beautiful it looks so cool that looks so cool I think I'm going to make one myself

10 out of 10 will craft again! Omg I wish I saw this before trying to make my first 😩

Oh man this is great! I've seen this template before but I didn't understand how to use it or put it together. This fantastic, thank you so much!
I'm glad you found this helpful!
This video is awesome :)
Thank you!
What size do you print them out on?
I printed the template out in A4 size and used sheets of A4 craft foam to make this
@@tillycxz you reply fast! Thank you!
Amazing! And my heavy-duty Singer machine can sew through foam. So I'm going to try to sew the whole thing together. Any tips?

nice, girl
Thanks 😊
What is the thickness of the foam? :)
I used 3mm foam that comes in a4 sheets
Thanks for answer :)
Looks like a dodo bird 🐦
Abraham Zatarain Haha! All it needs is a different paint job and it’ll look exactly like a dodo 😂

No worries!
@@tillycxz found 99c black 9 x 12 foam sheets from Walmart yesterday.
hii where can I find the template 🥺

@@tillycxz thank you so much 💚💚💚
@@thisisvioleeet no worries! Have fun crafting!
ha, can’t
It can get a little fiddly at parts but it's mostly just cutting out a pattern and gluing it together. You should give it a try!
