How to make your own dress form

HOLY SHIT, ATTENTION ALL COSPLAYERS.c

oh, hey, we didn’t have a tutorial last tuesday because I’m a dumb and I put this one to post on 4/23/2012 and tumblr didn’t know what I wanted. OOps.

The sound I made was inhuman.

This is on of my absolute favorite tutorials, and I can’t believe I haven’t posted this yet… I’ve used this method hundreds of times (okay, maybe 3-4), but it works flawlessly every time.

This method creates beautiful armor pieces on the cheap, but they still look amazing. This is one of those cosplay-life-changers!

Check out the full tutorial here

THIS IS THE TUTORIAL THAT TAUGHT ME HOW TO MAKE CRAFT FOAM ARMOR.

OH MY GOSH. Help. This just what I needed to help me figure out what I need to do for BirdFolk and dinosaur heads. YES. I never thought of cardboard over the mesh. Sheeesh! 

I’ve never used paper mâché in proper mask building but holy shit yes everybody should use plastic mesh. You can attach it with just about anything and you can attach just about anything to it, and the best part is you can see through it so if you’re building something on your own head you can actually see what you’re doing in real time.
