      As for your shopping list:
      most are stated in the videos but here’s a full list. I suggest buying the foam at hobby lobby if you’re in the USA, using a smartphone 40% off coupon. I just bought one roll at a time.
      4 gallons of monster makers liquid latex
      A roll of EVA foam
      7 rolls of 1 inch thick bedding foam
      1 roll of 2inch thick bedding foam
      Bottle of black ink
      spandex or scrap cloth
      clear Christmas ornament that separates in half
      Clear casting resin
      Regular casting resin
      Wood burner

    I'm thinking of making Kiryu and a Godzilla with my brother. I was thinking of having a speaker in the mouth of godzila for random roars, maybe even use an app for that. and for kiryu which is likely to take much longer im thinking of putting speakers in the mouth and the shoulder attachments. you think i need pvc pipes as support? any suggestions? or any trouble you ran into while making your suit?

    • @ericjohnson6939

The head having to hold a small JBL! speaker and a bright light source of some kind. Also I want to use LED Foam and LED lights for the fins. the pipes might help with the wires to the battery and arduino which would be strapped or somehow placed on to the shoulder pads with a case for the arduino. what are your thoughts?

      @@Crainage1056 I would put the speaker around your waist area. The reason is that you have to rely on a friend to guide you, and having a speaker near your head would make it hard to hear. Your other ideas with the shoulders sound good. You never know till you walk around in it what you need to alter.

    • @ericjohnson6939
      @ericjohnson6939  3 года назад +1

      Make sure you watch a few times to get a idea of all the supplies you need. Take measurements and draw things out.
      The cost of everything had gone up and most of it I got on sale at hobby lobby and online. I would guess 250-300 for the supplies. I wanted a movie level finish so I went all out with latex, plastic, and LED lights in the dorsal plates. Plasti-Dip is a okay substitute for latex for a cheaper cost.

    What are the dimensions of the head in the first Eva foam part?

    • @ericjohnson6939
      @ericjohnson6939  2 года назад

      It depends on your head. The neck has to fit your head in it and some people have hard hats at the top to have a mouth moving mechanism attached. It’s tricky not to have a oversized head, but it depends on your dimensions. Godzillas headband width should be a 3-4 inches smaller than yours. Remember you put bedding foam over that so don’t worry how small that looks. The muzzle should be slightly shorter than the length from the eyes to the back of the head. Sorry I don’t have a set in stone measurements for you
