This is some really awesome work. Mind if I ask what adhesive you used for the EVA foam?

Thanks! I use hot glue, but I hear contact cement is the way to go. I just suck with it, haha..

Man I've been using hot glue too, I can never seem to get contact cement to work right... Thanks for the reply though, you did a really great job on this helmet!

what did you use for the eyes? Could you show me a photo of the inside of the helmet? I'd like to know how the LEDs and the battery pack are fixed in place and all  
I've experimented with christmas lights in the past but I see no need for that many lights in a helmet with just two eyes so I was wondering how you did the electrical work in this thing

If you use facebook, I have an album of images here, including the (horrifically ugly) innards: www.facebook.com/media/set/?se…

Battery is fixed towards the end of the beak (make sure it doesn't hit your forehead or you'll have a nice battery shaped imprint). I used LED strips mostly because I had a lot left over from another project. I think 2 lights on each side should be enough. I have a switch that runs to the edge of the helmet so it can be turned on and off.

Working with EVA foam isn't hard at all... Once u get the basic shape of the helmet set out (ie no additives on it) then u can clean up the edges and then add the extra pieces on it! I intend to make Azir for Nekocon 2015 here in VA... Slow start tho due to expenses...

No need for apologies all comments are welcome.... Nekocon is in Hampton VA and usually the first weekend in November.... Unfortunatly I will not be finishing Azir... To much work for me plus I'm still a novice.... There's also a few other local conventions here in VA ie ROFCon and AMA... Look them up and consider attending... Oh also if ur on Imstagram hit me up Aces _cosplay_workshop

That looks amazing!! How did you do that texture/weathering?

thegadgetfish In reply to NatanThe6th [2014-10-31 21:46:52 +0000 UTC]

I carved in some scars with a dremel, and EVA foam/paper clay has a nice texture to it. I drybrushed over to bring those out.

I've looked up some tutorials on youtube. It's a simple technique and it gives an amazing effect. Thank you for sharing!

I'm not sure yet. I'm going to try making some stilts.. if those are a success, i'll be making a full thing. Good luck on kha and shyv! Those will keep you busy for a while, lolol.
