For those of you interested and planning to attend this workshop, please be reminded that some materials will be needed if you plan on crafting your own awesome set of cosplay armor.
MATERIALS
Necessary:
- EVA foam (can be the mats or the roll)
- Utility knives/scissors (Preferably both)
- Hot glue gun and glue sticks
- Pen or sharpie
- Paper
Optional:
- Cutting mat (If you are using a knife)
- Super glue
- Craft foam
- Tape
- Kiwk seal/foam clay
Other Tips:
Most of these materials can be bought from a Dollar store or Michaels.
EVA foam can be bought from places like Superstore, Walmart and Canadian tire. If you do choose to buy from Canadian Tire, you can purchase it from the home improvement section for much cheaper and split a roll of foam among 2-3 people.
Here are some cool examples from previous cosplays for some inspiration:
We hope to see you there!
