I just have to let you know how much I greatly appreciate you taking the time to make this! I'm about ready to paint and everything came along so nicely. You are so awesome! ❤
this video is perfect. thank you for showing the entire process at a perfect angle. epic trick ive been looking to form abs instead of piecing angles together
Olá sou Ricardo de BRASIL..... Seus trabalhos são incríveis feitos com muito amor carinho e dedicação e respeito com respeito aos originais em cada detalhe sou encantado com suas tecnicas PARABÉNS ! Thanks a Hug ! ❤❤❤❤
Love your work and all the help you give. Thanks soooo much! Made my son Wolverine and now making Gambit for his friend following you work. Simply amazing detail
@@TheFoamWitch so much, I was just wonder since I’m really cheap do you think I could use your template to make the armor with just making some changes instead of paying for it
Awesome!!! ☺️ And you could always get a female shaped base plate and build it up on there, but just bare in mind some of the shapes of the layers I have made may need adjusting to fit 👍
Partially followed this tutorial! Kinda went off on my own at some point, but, a very astute tutorial nonetheless, and I definitely subbed. You are a crafty lady! I'm doing #LACC in 20-something days. Going kinda like, half MCU looking & half comic/animated series looking. So, a very useful tutorial!
Thank you!! I have made the mighty Thor’s helmet in a previous video on my channel. I don’t have any plans currently to make her armour, but never say never 👍

Hey! So it’s all of them! it’s 5mm for the base, 3mm for the pec and ab details and 1mm for the side details. It’s clearly labeled on each piece on the template to make it easier for you ☺️
@@kylekremser4390 well this is also my job, so I do take commission. A chest plate like this would be £250 plus shipping if outside the UK. I’m currently trying to find a good courier though as previous ones have let me down
When printing it off using pdf printer, if you press the “poster” button, you can then print it over multiple pages and scale it up as much as you need by percentage 👍 The measurements of my mannequin are 37 chest, 30 waist and 35 hips. I’ve heard of you take your measurement and divide it by the default measurement, it will give you what percentage to print it out 👍
@@jheovannyortiz5044 I don’t have a template for that unfortunately, I just drew them straight onto the foam. You can copy them from the video if you pause it at that section ☺️
You mention that you don't really use contact adhesive anymore because it makes you feel sick and uh, just watching the video? It's probably because you're not wearing proper PPE. Contact adhesives off gas some nasty stuff as they dry, so breathing it in directly can induce nausea, headaches, and dizziness. All of which to say, you obviously adjusted your workflow to cut it out entirely (and good on you for that, too many people go "I just feel a bit ill, I can take it" and then cause themselves long term damage), but if you have a case like this again where it really is the best choice and you feel like you really want/have to use it, a respirator and (more optionally) nitrile gloves should keep you feeling good 👍 (Burning foam... also off gasses nasty things and you should wear your mask when doing that too) Safety stuff out of the way though, the chest piece turned out Absolutely Amazing, the metallic paints were absolutely the right choice, and watching your form the abs out of cuts on the back of a single piece of foam was like magic
Oh I do have a full respirator and I wear it pretty much all of the time, just this once in this video I didn’t. Even when I wear the respirator, the fumes still make me ill when I don’t wear it, must be the lingering fumes. That’s why I chose not to use it anymore, but thank you for your concern but please don’t worry, I do wear full PPE usually! 🤣 Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m glad you like it! It turned out ok didn’t it ☺️
seems like something one would wear to make a name for themself
😁😁
I just have to let you know how much I greatly appreciate you taking the time to make this! I'm about ready to paint and everything came along so nicely. You are so awesome! ❤

Ah I’m so glad you found it helpful!! ☺️
And yeah, the ab process can take some practice, but it works well 😁😁
That is the most AMAZING tutorial I have ever seen! Mon Ami!
I’m so glad you liked it! ☺️☺️
It’s incredible!!! I really love the look of the thin EVA skin over the ab section!
Thank you so much!! ☺️☺️
Thank you very much, after a week I finally made this Chest
Awesome!! I bet it’s epic! 👏
@@TheFoamWitch It Is, and after paint the boots, Gambit Will make a name
I can’t wait to try and make this for my Gambit cosplay.
Heck yeah! 🤘🤘
I'm cosplaying gambit later this year so this video is super helpful, thanks!
Oh that’s awesome! I’m glad it’s going to help ☺️

@JuneZangari can’t see why you couldn’t faction something from it for the base 👍
@@TheFoamWitch ok thanks
Great Job!!!
@@Carpethehardway thank you! ☺️☺️
Another eXcellent video
😜 thanks friend!! ☺️
i enjoy watching cosplay videos
Thank you! ☺️☺️
Fantastic tutorial. What density foam is this?
Thanks so much! I’m glad you liked it! And I always use CF100 density foam ☺️
Great job what was the contact cement you used? Ours came out pretty decent now we need to do the detail work. Thanks to you. Thank you.
I think it was Bostik glue and fix! I don’t use it often so only have little tubes of it ☺️
I’m so glad you found this useful 🤘🤘
Thank you!! 💙
☺️☺️
Any chance we can get the boots soon?
I don’t have any plans to do the boots or the cowl, but never say never!
Awesome video! It looks like there’s a line running down the middle of the abs, was that added after?
Nope, it was just added when the separate parts were stuck on, leaving a little gap between each one ☺️
Yay, i cannot wait to get started, since i'm making this for myself do you have any advice on making the pecs more... feminine?
Awesome!!! ☺️
And you could always get a female shaped base plate and build it up on there, but just bare in mind some of the shapes of the layers I have made may need adjusting to fit 👍

It looks like the abs you drew up are not on the template from etsy were those custom?
Yeah I just drew them on myself guessing how they would go 👍
Dam!!!! u are hosom!!
🤘🤘
Nice
Thank you!
Would you sell this or do customs for people, I absolutely love this
@@Gambitjordan yeah I do! Crafting is my business and I take on commissions! 👍 feel free to send me a message on instagram/facebook to discuss ☺️
Hey Foam witch so for the details do you use 5 min or 1 min
Hey! So it’s all of them!
it’s 5mm for the base, 3mm for the pec and ab details and 1mm for the side details.
It’s clearly labeled on each piece on the template to make it easier for you ☺️
where did you buy the foam? looking to make this for my bf and want some decent foam brands :)
I get all my foam and materials from the incredible Tyges Supplies! They are so awesome!

Leg armor next pls?
Never say never 👍
