Cosplay foam armor pattern starter kit

Description

With this collection of patterns AND 82 page tutorial book about working with EVA foam, you’ll be able to start your cosplay crafting journey in no time!
This collection includes my 5 most popular armor pattern sets and my helpful book about crafting with foam ‘The Ultimate Guide to EVA foam’.
And all of this… For a better price than when you would buy all of the items separately!

This is a set of digital patterns for cosplay armor, to be made out of EVAfoam or Worbla and a PDF E-book. These are all digital files, so there is no physical pattern that I send to you. You will need to download the files to your computer and work with them from there. There’s a total of 9 different chest armors, 6 different shoulder armors, 4 different hand armors, 10 different arm armors and 7 different helmets that you can make with this pattern collection, so that’s a whole lot to add to your cosplay patterns stash.

Now you’ll have patterns for so many different cosplays or LARP costumes. Just keep using these patterns and add your own designs and details to them.

This digital package also includes my Guide to EVA foam which will teach you all you need to know to start working with foam for creating epic armors.

If you buy this item, you can immediatly download the patterns and print them in your preferred paper size to make your own EVA foam armor.
All patterns are in one size, except for the hand armor and helmets. Those come in 3 sizes.
