It’s unbelievable that you don’t have more subs, I made your Mando helmet design, it turned out great! If you ever make wrecker from bad batch you can count on atleast one sale for that one too!
@TristanMaker do you have a brand of EVA foam you like to use? I'm trying to figure out what I want to purchase to make this with your template, but I want to make sure I'm buying a quality foam.
Can you make a video on how you make your templates please? I'm curious to see if you design them online first since they're so clean and symmetric looking
Hi. Great video! Will be wanting to purchase a set of blueprints, juat a quick question. Do your templates show which parts need to be certain foam thickness? And also does it inlclude a shopping list? Just so i know how much foam to purchase. Many tha ks for the incredible video!
Great work my man, just purchased the armour to go with my helmet I purchased and already completed. Helped such much to achieve what I wanted to do and make my own boba fett armour just in a different colour in my own paint scheme
Love the vids Just getting into making foam cosplay outfits for my daughter First attempts have been ok but have taken for ever to make What grade of Eva foam do you use? Have you done a video on all the tools and materials you use?
I like to use medium density foam for helmets and high density foam for armors. I haven't done a video on the tools I use, but I show each tool being used in each of my build videos.
You can scale the templates for a kid using the sizing chart in the pictures of the listing on Etsy and by following the printing tutorial video linked in the product description on Etsy
So for buying the sheets of foam for the armour. If I bought a 35" × 59" sheet roughly how many of those would I need. Like would 1 8mm and 1 6mm sheet of that do it?
How do you heat form foam? only thing I can think of that I could use that I have would be a hair dryer. Also, would epoxy 2 work or is contact cement needed?
A hairdryer doesn't get hot enough. You'll need a heat gun which you can get for as little as 20$. Expoxy won't work. You need contact cement, and super glue for the smaller parts.
Most of the armor is pretty simple to make, so if you put in the time and don't rush the process, you can totally pull it off. If it's your first time making an armor like this, skip the small intricate details and focus on what's most important :)
I select the "poster" format in Adobe acrobat Reader. It prints the templates on multiple pages which I tape together. You can watch the printing tutorial video linked in the product description on Etsy. I show my printing process in it.
Can I get the 3D print files or do they come with the templates because I’m 3D printing a full boba fett and don’t want to model that by myself just was wondering🎉
Love the vids and have purchased the templates. What is the scale for the templates so that I can print them out for the correct size? I do have access to a plotter as well if that can make it easier. Thanks for the help!
Hi, you can watch the printing tutorial video linked in the product description on Etsy to know how to properly print the templates. There is also a sizing chart in the pictures of the listing to help you print at the right scale for you.
Could we have a list of supplies you used? Like how much of the different foams you used and how much I’ll need to complete this. I found some of the foam at hobby lobby, but don’t know how much I’ll need and what sizes and mm.
There's a materials list a the bottom of the product description on Etsy. As for the amount of foam, I'm not sure exactly, but with a 3x1 meter sheet of 8mm foam, and a 1x1 meter sheet of every other thicknesses specified on the templates, you should have more than enough. I hope this helps!
I'm from Canada so I get my foam from True North Cosplay. If you live in the United States, I recommend getting it from TNT Cosplay Supplies or Blick Art Materials. I hope this helps!
J'ai une question Tristan! Tu as pris la corde pour la ceinture à quel endroit? Toutes les cordes que je trouve dans la bonne couleur sont beaucoup trop petites en diamètre!
@@TristanMaker merci infiniment! J'ai hâte de pouvoir créer mon propre costume avec ton template!!! Lâche pas la belle job! Je suis un fidèle abonné qui adore voir tes créations! Au plaisir de peut etre se croiser dans un comiccon un jour! 🤟😎
You mention left gauntlet but it was on your right arm, thats all and some pics had the missile on the left. All good mate, great video looking at making it soon
and also since you are Canadian you know how to speak French? Because some region of Canada speaks French. For better communication I wish you a good day.
Et aussi si se serait trop vous demander es ce possible que vous puissiez doubler(en voie of bien sûr) les deux vidéos sur la construction de l'armure clone,mais je comprendrais si vous êtes débordé.trés bonne journée.

Hey thank you! :)
Your templates are so accurate it’s crazy. You should definitely do Vader’s ESB helmet
Just found this channel. Idk how it took this long but immediately subscribed. This is some awesome work my friend.
Thank you for your support! :)
Hi.
Your tutorial is best, but bought your proposal and i dont know in what format to print it.
Hi, simply watch the printing tutorial video on my RUclips channel. All the info you need is there.

Can you make a video on how you make your templates please? I'm curious to see if you design them online first since they're so clean and symmetric looking
That's something I'm looking into. I just want to make sure I explain it properly because it's a very specific process :)
@@TristanMaker Awesome thank you!
Fome BAAH I'm welding metal for mine. XD
Great video tutorial, keep up the awesome work !
Thank you!

Yes each part has the required foam thickness indicated on it. There's a list of supplies needed in the product description on Etsy.
@@TristanMaker thankyou!

Thanks for the nice comment and for your support! I'm you like my work :)
Are you gonna make a video for Boba's jetpack?
I'm hoping to make one soon!
Love the vids
Just getting into making foam cosplay outfits for my daughter

Any tips for shrinking the template down to fit a child?

I've done a cosplay of boba fett out of yoga's floor mats and it came out pretty well, until the convention time, show me how to paint then
That's coming up in my next video! In just a couple of weeks.
i want this template
This is awesome! I think I am going to give it a shot! Thanks for showing us your trade secrets! haha
Cool! No problem
So for buying the sheets of foam for the armour. If I bought a 35" × 59" sheet roughly how many of those would I need. Like would 1 8mm and 1 6mm sheet of that do it?
I think that would be more than enough. There are also other thicknesses though. All of them are specified directly on the templates.
@@TristanMaker Awsome thanks for letting me know! I'll probably order everything later today. I look forward to making it!
Would you ever consider doing a c3p0 or 4lom? I love your tutorials!
That's something I always wanted to make! Maybe someday :)
Hello tristan can i change the gauntlet to be 6mm foam?
Yes, it should not be an issue.
Hi where can I find the template pieces???
They are available in my Etsy store which is linked in the video description.
Any chance you can do Imperial stormtrooper armor to go with the helmet?
It's on my list of things to build! :) I just don't know when I'll have time to make one.
If I don't have Heat Gun Can I use my hair dryer?
Unfortunately no, it doesn't get hot enough. The good news is that even the cheapest heat gun will work. :)
this was very thorough and easy to understand, i want to make it for halloween so bad, and you earned a new sub :)
Cool! Thanks for your support!
Please provide a link to the armour template
The link to my Etsy store is in the description of the video
I really love the undersuit in the picture, what did you use for it?
Thanks! I made it from a hoodie, a t-shirt and a long sleeve turtle neck shirt.
Are you gonna show that in the video i'm thinking about copying your undersuit for my cosplay 😄
I didn't record the process but I'll for sure show the different pieces and explain how it was made! :)
wooww... nice work... Would you ever consider doing General Grievous???
Can’t wait
And where can I download your templates?
can you send the templates
?
The template is available for sell in my Etsy store. The link to it is in the video description.
I love this, bought the templates and have been working on it. I wish my lines looked that clean lol
How can i get a list of everything i need before starting?
Awesome templates. Is it possible you can make a Tron Legacy costume?
How do you heat form foam? only thing I can think of that I could use that I have would be a hair dryer. Also, would epoxy 2 work or is contact cement needed?
A hairdryer doesn't get hot enough. You'll need a heat gun which you can get for as little as 20$.
Expoxy won't work. You need contact cement, and super glue for the smaller parts.
How difficult would most of this process be for beginners? As I am making a mandalorian costume this Halloween but I have never made one before
Most of the armor is pretty simple to make, so if you put in the time and don't rush the process, you can totally pull it off.
If it's your first time making an armor like this, skip the small intricate details and focus on what's most important :)
I’ve been SO excited for this video!!!!
Yay!
Thst is amazing build .
can you leave some links to the foam
Did he say how thick the EVA foam needs to be?
Have you ever done captain falcon armor and helmet ? From smash bros ultimate
That would be sick !
Haven't done one yet!
Quick question how do you print to templates so big
I select the "poster" format in Adobe acrobat Reader. It prints the templates on multiple pages which I tape together.
You can watch the printing tutorial video linked in the product description on Etsy. I show my printing process in it.
@@TristanMaker so then when I trace do I cut the pieces out individually
Watch the video on the Boba Fett helmet. I show how to transfer the templates to EVA foam.
Can I get the 3D print files or do they come with the templates because I’m 3D printing a full boba fett and don’t want to model that by myself just was wondering🎉
I only sell the digital foam PDF templates, no 3D files. Galactic Armory has great 3D files for Boba Fett's armor
Ok. Thanks love your video

how many feet of foam should i get?
Great video
Thank you!
How did you make the flak vest for the armor ? I really like the look of yours and would like to give it a try.
Watch my last video, I show how I made it :)
@@TristanMaker Awesome thank you!
@@TristanMaker Which video was it??
The video on how to paint the Boba Fett armor.
Does it warp with humidity ?
Nope, EVA foam is waterproof. Of course the paint you apply over it also has to be waterproof.
Merci beaucoup
what density foam do you use? or what supplier should i buy from?
I'm from Canada so I get my foam from True North Cosplay.
If you live in the United States, I recommend getting it from TNT Cosplay Supplies or Blick Art Materials.
I hope this helps!
J'ai une question Tristan! Tu as pris la corde pour la ceinture à quel endroit? Toutes les cordes que je trouve dans la bonne couleur sont beaucoup trop petites en diamètre!
J'ai trouvé la mienne au Canadian Tire. Elle n'est pas exactement pareille que celle de Boba Fett mais assez proche à mon goût.
@@TristanMaker Merci beaucoup! Ta colle Barge tu l'achètes où?! J'ai essayé d'en trouver et c'est plus rare que d'la marde de pape 🤣🤣🤣🤣
En effet c'est difficile à trouver. En ce moment il y en a à moitié prix sur Amazon heureusement.
@@TristanMaker merci infiniment! J'ai hâte de pouvoir créer mon propre costume avec ton template!!! Lâche pas la belle job! Je suis un fidèle abonné qui adore voir tes créations! Au plaisir de peut etre se croiser dans un comiccon un jour! 🤟😎
Ça fait plaisir! Merci de ton support :)
Hey Tristan! I don’t suppose u have a link to the zippers u used on the boots or what u used to attach them??
Unfortunately no. I bought them at a physical store that only exists locally.
@@TristanMaker ok..thanks for getting back to me! Did u super glue them on?
think you got left and right gauntlet
mixed up, correct me if i am wrong??
No I made sure to double check that while making the templates.
You mention left gauntlet but it was on your right arm, thats all and some pics had the missile on the left. All good mate, great video looking at making it soon
What white pen did you use to trace template?
It's a silver sharpie
Badass!
Thanks!
@@TristanMaker so talented dude, and your works so clean *chefs kiss*
can't wait to see it finished!
Your attention to detail is on point ! The armor turned out great sir👍👍
Thank you!
and also since you are Canadian you know how to speak French? Because some region of Canada speaks French. For better communication I wish you a good day.
Yes haha I'm from Montreal in Quebec so I do speak french.
Alors merci beaucoup pour votre réponse
Et aussi si se serait trop vous demander es ce possible que vous puissiez doubler(en voie of bien sûr) les deux vidéos sur la construction de l'armure clone,mais je comprendrais si vous êtes débordé.trés bonne journée.
Non malheureusement faire les voiceovers prend énormément de temps, c'est pourquoi je les fait seulement en anglais.
@@TristanMaker je comprend car sa s'étend à un plus large public mais pas de soucis je ferai avec😁
Fine job!
Thanks!
Can you make storm trooper
I'll hopefully be working on one this summer!
Hi Tristan, It's your can you contact me please, I have a project proposal for you. Cheers!
If you want, you can message me on Instagram. But I don't do commission work if that's what you are asking for.
