So you have seen me build some awesome props out of foam and now you want to try it for yourself! In this video I go over some of the basic tools, techniques, and materials needed and how to get started using EVA Foam for cosplay. EVA Foam, and especially my HD Foam, is perfect for costumes and cosplay because it's lightweight and con safe and honestly you don't need a bunch of expensive tools to work with the material. Here I go over some of my favorite tools and a basic how to guide on using them.

Be sure to check out all of the other videos on my channel for full build thread tutorials.


If you are purchasing my HDFoam from Blick Art Materials please go through my website or these links first because I do receive a small vendor affiliate. Those affiliate clicks allow me to continue to create more instructional videos and fabrication tutorials for our awesome Cosplay Community.
