[Indi]android Extra: Scoring Foam for Cosplay

March 8, 2019

When it comes to cosplay, those key items like armor and weapons can be a very tough nut to crack: Do you find a close approximation, do some Goodwill hunting, or do you just pay out the nose for a replica online?

Let's go with none of the above. As Indianapolis cosplayer SuperKayce shows us, industrial and craft foam is incredibly versatile and easy to use. You can take it from a flat sheet to anything like her Hawkgirl helmet or an entire set of Stormtrooper armor in just a few steps.

She'll also show you how scoring can add an extra level of detail for your pieces. All it takes is a couple tools.
