In this class you will make a full helmet with EVA foam and contact cement. EVA foam is the same material used as floor tiles for gyms and laundry rooms. You will follow a simply pattern to make a basic helmet that will look much like Magneto’s helmet. Then your imagination will be unleashed as you decide to add rivets, horns, spike, fins, etc. The helmet will need to be sprayed with a “Plasti Dip” spray (which we will provide) when finished (5 to 6 coats). Then once dry, it can be painted and will be very durable, ready to wear for Halloween or your next con!
We will have examples of helmets and armor to show as well as patterns for these items and weapons that can all be made from the same EVA material.
Feel free to check out this EVA foam construction videos on youtube. This will be exactly what we will be doing:
