How to Make a Chainsaw Man Cosplay - Free EVA Foam Template - Denji Cosplay Tutorial Part 1

- How to Make Chainsaw Man Cosplay helmet with Free EVA Foam PDF Templates! In this Part 1 video I will go over all of the steps I took to create this Chainsaw Man / Denji Cosplay and by downloading the free PDF templates from my site you can build it right along with me. This Chainsaw Man helmet prop is made almost entirely out of EVA HD Foam and because of that it weighs in at an amazing 1 pound 10 ounces! In this Part 1 video I go through all of the fabrication steps needed to create the cosplay helmet. In Part 2 I will cover the acrylic painting and weathering processes including epoxy gore. This Chainsaw Man cosplay is based off of the manga and the Anime PV trailer. I took some liberties myself with the back of the head because it is never fully shown in the trailer and varies panel to panel in the manga. Because of that some details might not be 100% but it's definitely good enough for cosplay and worse case you can make up your own details.
For those that don't know Chainsaw Man is an amazing over the top gory manga that is currently be made into an anime. I know Denji will be a fan favorite and Chainsaw Man Cosplays will be everywhere...so get a start on yours now!

I would recommend a roll of each size 2,4,6,10mm HD-Foam if you lay your patterns out right this should be fine. Otherwise you might need an additional 6mm sheet for the arms

Do you recommend using plastidip or mod podge? I have both but would like to know if there is one thar works better since I just started cutting the patterns
@@fabianmartinez5051 I think Plasti dip will give a cleaner look on the front of the helmet since it’s sprayed on but mod podge and flexbond are nice alternatives since they are non toxic brushable options
I'd buy this helmet from you, if you were selling it (just why not? people would be happy :D)
@@nikwerty4865 Because I don't have the free time to undertake that many commissions between running my business and creating content I am always busy
What length did you used for the teeth?
chainsaw man is one of my favorite manga series and I'm really happy someone made a cosplay tutorial
Thanks! mine too and I can't wait to see the anime 👍
my toxic trait is that i thought i could do this a week before Halloween and im struggling with part G
Believe me, it can be done. With the right tools, even I, who has never worked on a project like this, managed to almost get it done in 5 days
@@soewithanumber Working from morning to evening over the course of 5 days I managed to get it done and painted, only having to rush over a few of the bigger details on the sides in the end. As my first project like this, ever. In my experience, the biggest time saver was building a home-made bandsaw, out of placing a jigsaw upside down in a hole in workbench. Worked wonders!
Without the right tools, like the dremel, wood boring drill, "bandsaw", hot air gun and right types of glue. And a good workspace, it would've taken more than 5x as long to get done, if possible at all!
So "With the right tools", is a very big keyword. I'm very lucky to have a dad with a very extensive garage hahaha
The construction turned out amazing! You're so generous for letting us have the templates for free. Thank you for being awesome, I can't wait to watch Part 2! I'm finally trying out HD Foam for the first time on this project!
Fantastic! I’m glad you like the build and I promise you you’ll love my foam. Be sure to tag me so I can see your progress 👍
I'm working on it too for 3 weeks now from Cardboard. And hope it will end good. I just finished the chainsaws, and now I'm just doing the chains and blades, but it's gonna take a long time
Good grief. Way to make a complicated (to me) build look effortless. Absolutely wonderful job, as always. Not sure I’m ready to graduate to this one yet. Thank you for your great content!
Thank You! Lots of practice and refinement over the years to get to this state but that's the great thing about building is you learn something new or improve with every project! 👍
its genuinely so kind of you to give us access to these templates, everything looks amazing i cant want to try this out :)
Thank you and you’re welcome 👍
Thank you for this! Making this for Sakura-Con 2023 and used my Cricut to do the small pieces. Helped immensely with time - anything with 4mm for small pieces I ended up glueing 2 2mm’s together! In case anyone is planning on making this who has one already!
I just wanted to say thank you for the templates and your instructions on how to make this. I finished my build and the amount of compliments and photos I had taken of me probably top any cosplay I had by a mile. You are truly a cut above of your craft.
That’s awesome! 🙌🙌 glad I could help you out! All I ask is keep spreading the word to help get my channel get more views!
I just finished this build, my very first cosplay prop 🥹 took a month, but it was worth it. thank you so much for this tutorial and free templates! Please excuse me while I begin to emotionally recover from this 🥲
That’s awesome to hear! And I’m glad I could help you out 🙌
After four months I finally finished this build! I've never worked with EVA foam before, but the free templates made it so easy!!! Megacon is in 17 days and I only have to paint it now! XD.
That’s fantastic to hear! Have fun and get some great pics 🙌
this is insanely impressive!! even though i wasn't planning on making a denji mask, the video was incredibly helpful. I've only ever made one big cosplay prop before but this seriously makes me wanna make more and even redo my old one. Thank you so much for all the tips and tricks!
Thank you very much! I’m so glad my build can inspire 👍👍
Perfect timing, I currently working on a sci-fi style cosplay and this is very helpful
Awesome! 👍👍
What a WILD character design! Got me wanting to look up more about the show.
It's a really cool manga I can't wait for the anime to come out
I’m not an anime fan but this build is absolutely amazing! The details you built into it really make it pop!
Also, I love that little q-tip bit you glued to the smaller templates to trace them faster! I have to try that!!
Thank you so much! Yeah little things like that make template transfers so much easier
i’m so excited to work on this project! i’m building this for my boyfriend and this is my very first cosplay project i’m very excited!
You can do it! Have fun!
Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial and the templates! Took me 3 weeks but I was able to build it for my son for our Expo! Got Tons of compliments and always made sure I told them where to find the amazing templates! 👏 thank you
That’s awesome! I’m so glad, not only that I could help you out but that you were able to build it for your son! 🙌
What size did you print it out for your son? I have a seven year old and am trying to figure out what size to print the template out at
I tried with cardboard and it came out amazing.
Thanks for the free pdf❤️
Glad you have fun 👍
Im glad i found someone who made it out of cardboard! How did you do it?? Did you stack up pieces to make it the same thickness as the foam used??
This is beyond incredible. My son wants to be this character for Halloween. Not many days left. Better get started!! Thank you. The detail is mind blowing
Thank you very much! have fun and good luck
Made this for Halloween last year and it only took me a week to complete the building! This was my first time ever using EVA foam and even though I didn't have any fancy drimmel parts I could still recreate most of it with smaller exacto blades and sandpaper :) would totally recommend this to beginners who wanna try making a larger prop!!
That's awesome!
I'll never make a prop like this but it's always a pleasure to see you working on this kind of insane pieces 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you!
Im so glad I found this, my bestie wants me to make this for her, I know nothing about the anime or the characters, thank you so much
Oh this is so cool. I’m hitting my first Halloween party in 2 1/2 years this year and have been wanting to do a Chainsaw Man costume. I considered Aki but really wanted to do Denji. This will be perfect. Thanks for the templates and the video instructions.
You’re welcome! Have fun! 🙌
I don't know anything about making cosplays, but that sculpting+masking tape technique is simply genius
Thanks!
This is amazing! I was working on a Chainsaw Man cosplay but the helmet was difficult so these pdf files will help me out a lot! Thank you!!!
You’re welcome! 👍
Thank you for an awesome job and awesome video Steve. I imagine that there are many out there that don't give you the world of credit you deserve for making the videos and patterns free of charge. I think my mere thank you is very poor to the amount of appreciation you should receive.
Thank you very much and I really do appreciate you taking the time to thank and comment! Slowly but surly gaining those followers one build at a time 👍
I am up for the challenge! This is definitely the most complex build of Chainsaw Man’s head that I’ve seen, but I wanna give it a go. Building cosplay props is always fun, and very satisfying when it is completed. It’s cool to tell others that you made the props yourself, instead of buying them.
You can do it! I have had hundreds of people make Chainsaw man based off of my templates, a lot of them it was their very first build!
I'm using cardboards and hot glue to make this and it's been going pretty well until I ran out of hot glue midway through...
Im glad i found someone who made it out of cardboard! How did you do it?? Did you stack up pieces to make it the same thickness as the foam used??
I've sale questions!
*same
I have zero experience with building cosplay stuff and using foam, but i'm gonna build this at some point in the next few months when i gather all the materials and honestly as an artist i believe i can do it even without any experience. My hands are really good with crafting so i'm going into this with a lot of confidence.
Awesome! Have fun and good luck 🙌
Hi!! I know im late, but did you manage to build this??
@@globe7 yess i did !! it turned out perfect! as if i have been making cosplays for years! i can answer any questions you have if you want
I have never made a cosplay before, and I’ve been following this tutorial for a few days now. I’ve finished up the basic shape and the teeth and it’s going well!! I’ll update down here ⬇️
That’s awesome to hear! Feel free to tag me with updates on Instagram as well
so how's the update?
Update?
@@mattiagoffo1795 SORRY I COMPLETELY FORGOT it went super well! I wore it at a con and got a ton of compliments!
Thank you for having free templates, I've always wanted to make cardboard props but a lot of the templates you have to buy. And as I teen I don't really ever have the money for the PDFs, especially went you have to buy all the materials too. So again thank you, me and a lot of others appreciate you and your work.
You are so welcome!
Man after watching this i really dont know if i can make this in cardboard 😭. But i really support that you gave this masterpiece template for free tho that takes dedication 👍
Just started working on this yesterday for my first project. Perfect template and only issues I've ran into is having a size 8 head, so I decided to just cut the rest of the back head pieces that size and the fill under, going with a more smooth skeletal look. Then omitting some of the intricate machinery aspecting and going with more muscle/tendon looking pieces for the jaw and to tie the head together to make it my own. Huge thank you for the build!!
👍👍
Best tutorial in the community till now. Thanks a ton man. It was very helpful to me. Keep going.❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you very much!
When CSM Anime starts , this video will be on RUclips recommendation of every single timeline.
Man , this is dope..... UwU.
With much love from
- Denji and Makima -
Thanks!! I hope it helps people make the cosplay a little easier for them to build 👍👍
Appreciate the video! I was planning on trying to make a Pochita statue and the chainsaw for the mask came in clutch. Great video and keep up the good work!
Thank you! 🙌
You are doing such an amazing job my dude! It's been great to see you really grow over the years and make this your own thing. Incredibly proud of you and can't wait to see you again man :)
Thank you so much man I really appreciate it! and same hopefully we will be able to hook up this year at some point
thank you for making this I want to cosplay Denjis chainsaw devil form for halloween
Amazing work! Can you do Gugu’s Chameleon helmet from anime “to your eternity”
I'll have to check it out!
Even if I don’t watch it I still see this as the coolest thing ever
Thanks!
I’m gonna do my best to master your amazing template, you’re crazy skilled!! Might need a commission tbh 😅
Awesome! Have fun 👍
Coming back to this to make a full chainsaw devil cosplay with the four arms and all, so happy with this tutorial
Thank you!
my dude, this thing kicks ass, 10/10 looks and another 100 points for the templete for it
Thanks!! 👍👍
you should try to do a requiem arrow from Jojos bizarre adventure I think it would be cool and I've been trying to build on myself
I'll need to check that out! 👍
I just finished my chainsaw man fabrication, big thanks for the template! Will tag ya in everything tied to it!
Fantastic! Glad I could help! 🙌
Question. When you say "Smooth sanding drum", do you mean that the sand paper on the drum has been worn down? Or so you mean a higher grit (which would _technically_ feel "smoother" than a lower grit)?
No I make my own smooth drums you can see how in my video here ruclips.net/video/Fr_jK_xaSsE/видео.html
as i was making my own chainsaw man cosplay I found a picture of yours and that was a great inspiration for some details love the work you made looks smashing man
Thanks!
DUDEEEEE, your work is soooooooo cool, i loved the mask. Have you ever watched rwby? is a really nice animated series created by rooster teeth, where the main characther, Ruby, has a scythe called crescent rose, it would be really cool if you tried to make a template of that scythe :D
Thanks I'll have to check that out!
The fact that you have free access to your outstanding work surprises me many times.
Once again, I respect your passion.
Thanks to you, it's going to be a fun job.
Thanks! And have fun 🙌
okay I wasnt sure I would finish it CUZ I HAD 3 DAYS buttt.... with the con cruncher i am I did it 🥲🥹🥹🥹🥹 with the arms and paint job, turned out rly good saved my life with this pattern
It will still be here when you can build it 👍
I don't have pvc, dies*
Use wood
Thanks again for this tutorial and the free pdf's. I wore this cosplay to a convention and lots of people wanted pictures!
Unfortunately I didn't manage to finish the arms, since cutting out the indivudual chainsaw chain pieces took me a while
That is awesome! Glad I could help!
I hope this man gets millions of views once the anime comes out.
I hope so too!! 👍
Oh my God I love and appreciate you for this. I was scrambling trying to figure out how to do this for a con in January. You're amazing and I'm absolutely thrilled to start on this when I get home from work.
Fantastic glad I can help!
Started build this and got darn. I have to give props on getting the lines so straight
Thanks! 👍👍
THank you so much for providing this piece of content. Following the instructions was super easy and the outcome was indredible. I wore the cosplay to a convention and people were amazed. I hope I can create other cosplays in the future. Thanks for this awesome video!
That’s awesome to hear! And you’re very welcome! 🙌🙌
How long (roughly) did it take you to make and paint?
@@Gameoholic_ 3 weeks
@@SKSProps Thanks! I was actually hoping for an answer from Andreu since you are likely much faster at making cosplays than any of us :p
This is so cool. If you can do a full cosplay it is sure to win awards in convention.
Thanks! I do plan on making the arm blades👍. But I don’t complete anymore after winning some of the biggest shows out there I am usually asked to judge nowadays
I can't believe you actually made this. Good for you! And thank you! Makes me want to make one myself but I'd probably stop where you said you could without the extra backing. Looks actually doable too, like it was just take a while, nothing is really that complicated.
Thanks! Hopefully you find the time to try it out!
Thanks you i have 6 months for make a cosplay and youre my hero
Awesome!
so glad i decided to look on youtube before i started crafting and buying supplies!! this looks awesome and i can’t wait to buy some blick foam !
Thank you!! 👍
my chainsaw man cosplay is coming in tomorrow and im just now seeing this :)

Glad you like it!
I have been following the progress on Instagram ... DEAR GOD this is coming out spectacular!!
Thank you very much! A challenging but rewarding build 👍
@@SKSProps The detail you are getting out of the foam is amazing!
No gonna lie my HD-Foam makes a difference 😉
@@SKSProps Agreed! I own a decent supply! Now to use it!!
I'm trying to 3D model the head and this is going to help me a lot. Thank you! :D
You’re welcome!
This is incredible, I LOVE IT!!! Awesome craft man! Can't wait to try it!!!

Wow crazy awesome build, never read the manga but ill definitely check it out as well !
Thank You! and you'll probably love it. I can't wait for the anime to be released
Soooo beautiful so detailed ! Very impressive i'm not even a cosplayer but i'd love to buy this xD !
Thanks! I don’t sell anything anymore my whole goal now with the videos is teaching others how to make their own props
Happy 100.000 Subs to you 🥳
Thank you! 🙌
Wow this is amazing I wish I was this good at making things actually cosplaying as chainsaw man for Halloween and bought a chainsaw man mask on Amazon 🤣
That’s ok you’re still having fun. But as far as making it’s just about practice and persistence you get better with every build. I’ve also got a lot of easy to follow builds for new foamsmiths
ahahahha same bro
Thank you so much for this being my first Halloween costume mine turn out great!
🙌🙌
around how long did it take you to finish it?
This is so sick!! love Chainsaw Man and this cosplay tutorial!!
Thank you very much! 👍
I wanna do it just to prove that I can lmao! It looks amazingg
Thank you! And you should! 👍
No idea if you'll see this lol, but I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart, for releasing your PDFs for this amazing project! I have a month-and-a-half before the biggest anime convention in my state, and your files are an absolute GODSEND! Thank you so much for being so amazing.
You’re very welcome! Be sure to tag me or send me pics 🙌
Stunning work, simply stunning!!
Thanks buddy!! 👍👍
Thank you very much sir. Both for sharing your talent and providing such an excellent video.
I do have a (hopefully) quick question: I want to make the head-chainsaw to be able to actually mimic ( of sorts) the rotating saw blade of a chainsaw by using a small electro motor (batteries) . Will the foam be able resist the extra weight and tension?
For the head yes but you would probably need to add some kind of additional support in the middle of the chainsaw itself then skin it with foam. You’d have to test what would work best (something like pvc board)
I am so tempted to try this. I never done something like this in my life. I’m afraid I’m going to fail miserably
I was at a con last month and I saw 9 people that used my video to make Denji. Of the 9 three said is was there very first build. Just go slow and follow the patterns and video it's just a big puzzle to put together 👍
Building this for a convention Honesty great video its so easy to follow with such complex parts!
Glad you like it! and have fun! be sure to tag me when it's finished so I can see your build 👍
@@SKSPropsYou know it!
Been thinking of making my first cosplay of Denji/Chainsaw man for a good 5 mins

Awesome have fun! 🙌
Okay this tutorial is perfect! I don't know if I'm going to want to do this cosplay, but I know I'm going to use the tutorial to do the weapon part of Juliet from Lolipop Chainsaw. Looking forward to the second part of the video!
Thanks! and yeah this technique would go great for her weapon glad I could help!
The crafting looks fantastic.
Thanks Wayne!
Wow! That thing is awesome! Definitely gonna checkout the anime, great work 👍
Thank you very much!
