Hello Everyone!
As some of you are aware I am doing a series of videos on how to make armor cosplay. I am finally able to upload the first video of my Riven armor tutorial video. Thank you for your patience as it takes longer to record and upload than I thought. This really makes me appreciate Makeup Disguises videos even more than I already do! I also wished my voice sounded like hers, sorry about the terrible voice I have recorded. Hopefully I will get better at this and this video helps anyone who was confused about our pervious posts about making cosplay. Here are the final photo results of the video, Part 1 (For video scroll below):
As explained in the video the first part of the tutorial is making the basic shape of the pieces. You need foam board bought from the dollar store, try to get it as cheap as possible. You honestly don’t need high quality foam board or anything like that. As long as when you slice the foam you can see have the paper attached so you can do the contoured parts. Hopefully everything is clear, I didn’t exactly explain everything but rather showed it. Feedback, comments and questions are welcomed. Please don’t hesitate to ask for any help or clarification! It’s my first time attempting one of these things so I’m open to suggestions. Here is the video, Hope you enjoy:

Waow, this is cool ! What is the thickness of the foam board ?
It’s only about 1 cm. that’s why I stack them XD.
The video was awesome! I hope you post the sword video soon! Hopefully it’ll help me as I make my sword for Anime fest in 2 weeks!
Thanks! I’m actually uploading the sword part as I type this! Its just the basic layers of the sword but hopefully I’ll have the other videos up soon! Just takes time to upload and cut it e.t.c.

The videotape makes it easier to understand how you make your stuff. Wow, didn’t realize it took so much work! Great job
Very nice work. The end result is going to be awesome.
Yes, the sword is really cool XD.
I was blown away by the amount of patience and precision required for every step. The explanations were very thorough. Also, there is no need to feel embarrassed about your voice! Can’t wait to see the next video
Thanks XD… I think it could have been better but I hate my voice LOL.
