Two years ago I found a big carton of pool noodles and another big carton of foam pipe insulation for sale at Goodwill. Was 133 noodles in all. Bought them all for $9. Best score EVER at Goodwill. Now I can build wingsssss.
Wow! Your obvious joy and enthusiasm for this project is infectious - thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and talent - some people might want to keep such a great idea a secret for themselves!
Your video was awesome, I was able to use this method to build a singular wing for my sons Halloween costume. With about 40 hours of work my family was able to pull off a really good rendition of Sephiroth from Final fantasy 7. Thanks again for the video.
Hey brother, nice project. Just be careful when using high heat and melted foam. It could cause toxic fumes that can be very harmful. It really wouldn't hurt to use a respirator when melting foam or even spray painting indoors. Keep up the great work.
Thanks for the tip, and you are right- polyethelene is not that terrible unless it gets hit by an open flame- thats when all the real bad stuff comes out. I also have a really well ventilated shop with two industrial air scrubbers.
So nice to see someone who thoroughly enjoys what they do. These are magnificent! Of course the color and feathers...or not would be determined by what the costume is. Such a great idea. Thank you. You have done some really great things. 🥰👍🏻👏🏻
This is a really cool and cheap way to make wings and its light enough for a child to wear all day. Thanks for sharing but PLEASE wear a mask when dealing with those chemicals you are heating up! We need you to last a long time and teach us some more :) ;)
I work at a Michaels and all our custom framing comes wrapped in essentially this foam. A former coworker made a “mother goose” costume, using the foam for the feathers. It turned out great, I had never thought to utilize that for anything but I have a basically endless supply for free if I ever need it.
Those are fricken awesome! I did a twisted fairy godmother one year for Halloween and those wings would be awesome for the costume. Now I may have to revive that costume again with these kind of wings.
I live in Australia..not big on Halloween here but we love it and you are my absolute go to for easy, reasonably priced Halloween ideas. I have made several of your projects. Thankyou for sharing you're bloody awesome mate!
HEY I had Batwolves - If a vampire gets bit by a werewolf and a zombie they become a batwolf! after seeing this as a kid! ruclips.net/video/FR48hmAbo9Y/видео.html
Thank you for this tutorial! This is my first time making any kind of large scale prop for a Halloween costume and this was super beginner friendly and affordable. I just finished laying my first layer of black spray paint on my wings for my Mothman costume and I’m so pleased with it. ❤❤❤
I am so impressed with your imagination! I am making wings for my Cthulha and you came to my rescue! I am using your antler recipe because my monster is stationary and doesnt need to move. You are a genius!!
Have you seen some of the awesome stuff WillowCreative has done? They made that awesome articulated wolf mask that went viral a few years ago, and they regularly make extremely realistic wings and cool mechanical costume pieces. I feel like you two would like each other!
Awesome!!! I wished I'd found this video before I made mine. I ordered black feathers and glued them on the wings you get at Wal-Mart. Even though mine look nice. It's not the impact that yours give.
I love flying monkets! Anything with flying monkeys is so hard to find. Super great job on the wings. You look so pumped up wearing them. Keep on doing these great videos, please!
This was the first time that I have ever watched one of Your videos. I love it!!! I did like and Subscribed!!! I look forward to seeing more of Your videos! Thank You for sharing Your talents with Us. These wings are Beautiful!!! You did a Great job!!! 😊👍🏼👋🏼
Oh my ,,,,,,,you are the man !!!! those are the best wings by far, I’m sooooooo glad I found you ,I’ve been watching your videos one after another, not only your talent but your creativity is like no other ,,,you truly make things come to life , it is an honor to watch you ,
Love your creativity! You might enjoy using a Fiskars cutting wheel (sewing notions) for simple shapes like the feathers. Quick, and no hand-cramping from extended use of scissors.
Um..... you're my new favorite youtuber. How creative and fun... the way you teach is very accessible as well. Thanks for all the great ideas and insight!
I’ve been making some crude dinosaur legs using noodles like these and was wondering how to best glue the jointed sections together. The solution was right under my nose. Thanks for sharing.
WOW! gonna make a couple sets of these! my wife needs them for her Maleficent character and me ... (no flying monkey jokes here) gonna put them on my d&d character (a Gorilla with wings)
Sea creature- translucent jellyfish with leds for bioluminescence and lots (and lots)of tentacles moving around with a fan? Could be as awesome as those wings! So light and airy, fantastic job!
So awesome I think I'll try making this for my Daughter Julie she said something this past summer about wanting wings for a costume thanks for sharing Bro.
Looking to make an Angel of Death for this haunt season and I keep coming back to this video - the wings are awesome! Have you noticed any failure of the joints where you used heat to glue them? I figure mine will get a lot of use/movement. Thanks for posting this!
Ok this is just awesome! This material has so much potential. Funny thing is your making corn video was in the suggestion list while I was watching this and I thought "Yep it would work for that also." Great video Allen.
i wonder if you could make some secure loops out of the sheet foam that would blend into the wings that you could slide your hands into when you want to pull them in and pose like you were doing. also, i know the noodles are cheap, lightweight, and easy to assemble, but what about pvc pipe if you wanted a little more rigidity to them?
you could, but then youd have handles on your wings. I think that would look wore than ocassionally folding them in with your hands. Why would you want more rigidity? they hold themselves up well, but they will not knock someone over and will bend in the wind as opposed to risk tipping your prop. If they were droopy at all then Yes Id add some, but I see it as unnecessary here.
Love your creative work!! Your channel & video’s are so inspirational. In the UK though pool Noodles are solid foam no hole in the middle. Therefore a similar product for Uk viewers would be pipe insulation covers and sadly they only come in grey 🫤.
This project is very creative. Accessible materials, did not even need the use of glue. Unbelievable result.
Thaks Hugo!
Allen you are amazing. I am going to get Sheyenne into this project. This is so cool
You didn't test the heat gun on your hand this time I'm so proud of you.
thats because I had to hold my hand directly in front of it to use it lol.
I was thinking about doing a Maleficent costume. I now have the knowledge how to make her horns and how to make her wings 👏👏👏 thank you Allen!
Go for it!
Two years ago I found a big carton of pool noodles and another big carton of foam pipe insulation for sale at Goodwill. Was 133 noodles in all. Bought them all for $9. Best score EVER at Goodwill. Now I can build wingsssss.
heck yeah!
Wow! Your obvious joy and enthusiasm for this project is infectious - thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and talent - some people might want to keep such a great idea a secret for themselves!
Thats not my style. I learn from others when they make stuff, cause we all put our twists on it.
Pool noodles ... This is absolutely genius
these are the best
I like how lightweight they are.
Your video was awesome, I was able to use this method to build a singular wing for my sons Halloween costume. With about 40 hours of work my family was able to pull off a really good rendition of Sephiroth from Final fantasy 7. Thanks again for the video.
I love the imagination, thank you for sharing!
WOW! These are magnificent. They would also look great on a large Christmas angel. Thanks Allen!
you said the C word! lol they would indeed!
As if I needed more motivation! I am so excited to try this out for myself!
Youve got ths!
Thank you!! perfect tutorial, simple, to the point and you have a great personality! You've solved my wing dilemma for my Niece's Halloween costume !
Your dogs are so chill! Mine freaked out when I put on a witch hat one time and hasn't been the same since. Love the wings!
I do have a video of them super afraid of a full sized Frankenstein figure. so they have their moments.
Yes! Flying monkey wings. Can't wait for that one. Those look amazing
I have een wanting to do oe forever, just time

GORDON'S ALIVE! Very nice wings. Perfect for a Vultan costume.

Sweet, great you tube Wednesday. Wings are great, nice and light weight. Get a good nap. Till tonite...nice parting shot by the way..

Glad you like it
This is so cool and creative! What an amazing transformation. You’re super talented!
Thank you! Cheers!
THESE ARE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING LOVE THANK YOU FOR YOUR AMAZING VIDEOS KEEP SHINING BRIGHT LOVE 🔥🔥🔥💜💜💜🌟💫🐉💋
Awesome idea! I wrote a series of stories involving a flying werewolf. My dream is to make a costume to go with it and those would be perfect! Thanks.
HEY I had Batwolves - If a vampire gets bit by a werewolf and a zombie they become a batwolf!
after seeing this as a kid!
ruclips.net/video/FR48hmAbo9Y/видео.html
Love this! Especially as pool noodles are available year round here at places like CVS and some grocery stores along the beaches. ❤ 🐦
thats cool, they are seasonal here in TX
@@StiltbeastStudios I wonder if they are on your coast? It's great not to consider buying "ahead." Lol
Loved loved theses wings
Yessss! Love these!
thanks- they are lovely
ive been looking for a affordable, moveable wing tutorial for the longest time, and i’m happy to say this is the best one yet! thanks for this!
Glad I could help!
Thank you for this tutorial! This is my first time making any kind of large scale prop for a Halloween costume and this was super beginner friendly and affordable. I just finished laying my first layer of black spray paint on my wings for my Mothman costume and I’m so pleased with it. ❤❤❤

I will check it out
Fantastic!!! Walmart had pool noodles for 25 cents. Wish I’d bought them.
Next time!
In two videos you have solved two problems I had with my build. Thank you!
Awesome!!! I wished I'd found this video before I made mine. I ordered black feathers and glued them on the wings you get at Wal-Mart. Even though mine look nice. It's not the impact that yours give.
these are big, so they do add some drama
I love flying monkets! Anything with flying monkeys is so hard to find. Super great job on the wings. You look so pumped up wearing them. Keep on doing these great videos, please!

I have one! but its fabric only. They are pretty cool, but my tables are in rough shape so they are not kind to blades
What about electric scissors? You won’t need a table for them
Love this project. You could cosplay Vultan the Hawkman from from Flash Gordon!
lol- it is known.
Love them! I always get so much out of your tutorials . Thank you so much for sharing your passion.
I'm so glad! thank you!
Beautiful wings. Good thing you weren't outside, you could've flown away with Chaney in your arms! Thanks Allen.
Next time!
This is GENIUS!!! Hoping I can use this technique to construct WW84 golden wings!
let me know how they turn out!
You are so awesome I love your work.. Amazing....keep up the good work
Cool. Amazing what you can do with a pool noodle.

This is such a boss project! A living Gargoyle in the making!

Your work is amazing , This would be cool for archangel wings from x-men.
thank you, and yes they would!
I'm loving how often you compliment the wings today : )
Im just thrilled, I had these planned in my head and I knew they would work, but big wings like this are supposed to be expensive
@@StiltbeastStudios And here you are making big dreams possible :)
“What do ya think about my wings buddy?” 😂😂😂😂 I couldn’t stop laughing at that one.
The wings look awesome
I’ve been making some crude dinosaur legs using noodles like these and was wondering how to best glue the jointed sections together. The solution was right under my nose. Thanks for sharing.

This is incredible. I am going to attempt to make this. Thank you for the video!! Love the flying monkey idea!
Thank you! Cheers!
Dragon wings, too! Or maybe even dragonfly wings!
Liked the video, just finished making our frame but we used hotmelt glue. Needed extra support and took longer but we didn't have a heat gun.
Great! There are many ways! Glad you found one that works for you!
You're awesome. I love your videos.
Thanks, I love your comments!
WOW! gonna make a couple sets of these! my wife needs them for her Maleficent character and me ... (no flying monkey jokes here) gonna put them on my d&d character (a Gorilla with wings)

The pool noodles are so light, you could probably do fishing line attached to your hands
you could, but then youd have handles on your wings. I think that would look wore than ocassionally folding them in with your hands. Why would you want more rigidity? they hold themselves up well, but they will not knock someone over and will bend in the wind as opposed to risk tipping your prop. If they were droopy at all then Yes Id add some, but I see it as unnecessary here.
So cool .I need for angel I'm making so thank you 😊😊😊
sweet!
Awesome!
Is there anything you cannot create!?!? Amazing
I'm sure there is. Thank you!
MY THERIOTYPE IS SO HAPPY RN
Love your creative work!!
Your channel & video’s are so inspirational.
In the UK though pool Noodles are solid foam no hole in the middle. Therefore a similar product for Uk viewers would be pipe insulation covers and sadly they only come in grey 🫤.
Thanks so much for the inspiring video.
Thanks for watching!
Flying Monkey? Not a bad idea my first thought was Prince Vultan from Flash Gordon.
thats not as scary as I go for lol.
