Video how-to's?

[KandosiiFRP]

I see lots and lots of picture by picture how-to's and they're great. I've learned tons from them. Sadly I'm easily confused on occasion and was wondering if there are any video tutorials here on the site.

The closest thing I can think of is Dave's Garage videos on youtube. There are troopers who post personal videos here explaining their scratch built blasters and such, but nothing officially from this forum.

Sweet I hadn't seen these. I'll have a look.

i made a few short vids showing some alternative trimming methods

 

trimming armor with a belt sander

 

trimming ears with a home made hot wire foam cutter

 

nothing in depth or fancy yet....

Neat, I think I'll keep delving into the site. Try different searches on you tube.

I know not everyone has a high opinion of him, but Andrew Ainsworth has included some videos on his new site

(Link to video:

)

It starts off with him showing the vacuforming process, but if you jump to about 10mins, he shows a bit of assembling the armour too.

Loved the way you were determined not to put the camera down and use 2 hands there

 

Yeah seen Andrews videos. Quite informative.

 

I was hoping to see signs of reconstruction on his lid backcap mould....but there's none. Hmm.....?

those videos actually show him sculpting a new faceplate. and andrew has stated that he modified the cap n back on his battle spec

helmets using some CNC machining.

that is him showing the process of his way of making a thermoforming mould by

using metal and fibre infused with resin.

 

on top of plasticine clay.
