How To Make A Red Hood Helmet - Cosplay Airsoft: Red Hood Pt. 3

[@carlosmelendez8317]

I bought this template on etsy and it is amazing! I just finishing stage one and the helmet fits me perfectly. @captain cosplay, I hope you load new characters in the future. Thx for sharing your build.

[@lalshortshot2051]

Peyot3 Shinobi have you got a insta i wanna see it

[@truealphajaden5418]

it looks like cosplay chris's i was waiting for this

[@ssjpikachu]

Yo when I saw this on my feed, and thought nothing much but your red hood helmet is really cool. If you have more videos like this I might as well sub!

[@thecosplaynoobj3872]

Would it be possible to use your template and just not cut out the cheek and temple areas in order to make a full helmet? I love your helmet design for Cosplay just don't need the meshed areas.

[@CaptainCosplay]

Yes, but you’ll need to fashion pattern pieces to fit those holes: the pattern is made to have those spaces. You should be able to do that fairly easily by tracing the spaces between the patterns pieces.

[@EvilGenius.]

Awesome job kid! Keep it up!

[@bluboicosplays]

damn that looks sick, any chance of releasin the templates in the near future?

[@CaptainCosplay]

+Yusin Hobbies Yes, that is my plan. Hopefully I will get them properly sized and useable sometime tomorrow. They should be available on Etsy in a week or less.

[@CaptainCosplay]

+Yusin Hobbies The templates are now available.

[@carlosmelendez8317]

Captain Cosplay Does the template include instructions, material list, and does the template have instructions for proper head sizing?

[@carlosmelendez8317]

The Hatchet the templates are for sale on captain cosplays etsy page. They are good templates too.

[@gabrielflores1467]

hey captain cosplay, it's been a while since you made this video, but can you comment the link to your template?

[@carlmcjenkins5274]

Wow looks awesome!

[@carlosmelendez8317]

This is a great template and easy build. I did also mess up and completely built my helmet (which looks great) and it's a little too tight! I am now unable to wear the eye mask under the helmet because it is too snug. I hate to have to buy material all over again. Anyone have any suggestions?

[@nospezie]

hi but you sell the mask already made or not?

[@nipaigrat]

Is that a functional air soft helmet or you’ll be wearing some protective glasses underneath?

[@CaptainCosplay]

I have a pair of protective glasses to go underneath it. The helmet itself would not be trustworthy as a protective device.

[@omniionit]

Pretty sick!

[@Ozarkwonderer]

Im not a cosplayer..just a comic geek. But this is awsome. You did good on this build. I like your helmet disighn alot. It looks cool with the vents...but also more comfortable cause it should breath at least some. Other helmets look like youd die in them.

[@atomcat_v6664]

Nice dude!!

[@cj0156]

Do you need red foam or can you have black and cover it with red?

[@CaptainCosplay]

You’d have a hard time covering black foam with red plastidip alone, but if you use red paint, any color of foam or plastidip would be fine.

[@ellagg]

This design is amazing. I plan on buying it. Just one doubt. It says on your etsy store that its for a 24 inch head. Is that measured from the forehead to the back?

[@ualreadyknow112able]

I am working on a redhood for Halloween. Can't find a good helmet online. Don't have time to make one. Do u sell these? Already complete?

[@mudkipzuzu]

Would you say you need to use both Kwik Seal and acrylic paint, or did you only use the acrylic because the Kwik Seal didn't do the job?

[@CaptainCosplay]

I used the acrylic paint because the kwik seal was too white, and was showing through the plastidip.

[@mudkipzuzu]

@@CaptainCosplay So the paint effectively covered the kwik seal?

[@CaptainCosplay]

Yes.

[@mudkipzuzu]

@@CaptainCosplay Alright, thanks. Keep up the good work!

[@lalshortshot2051]

What did you do with the small one

[@carlosmelendez8317]

Captain Cosplay Does the template include instructions, material list, and does the template have instructions for proper head sizing?

[@CaptainCosplay]

The video serves as the instructions, and kind of as the materials list. You’ll need red and black craft foam, plastidip in red and black, white spray paint, and silver and black knitting screen. Unfortunately the pattern is one size fits all, but I have a fairly large head (24 inches around). Hopefully it will fit.

[@carlosmelendez8317]

How much of each material, where did you find the knitting screen and also my head measures about 23 inches so because the foam is only 5mm thickness do you think it will be loose on my head?

[@CaptainCosplay]

2 sheets of red foam, one sheet of black foam. The knitting screen is in the knitting aisle at Hobby Lobby, it comes in black and silver (you might be able to find it at Walmart, but I haven’t looked). I don’t think the helmet would be that much looser on your head, but if it is, you should be able to glue a few pieces of foam on the inside to stabilize it.

[@carlosmelendez8317]

Captain Cosplay thanks for the reply. I appreciate the help. Yes hobby lobby has much of the materials. I'm gonna build this helmet and add updates. Thanks

[@bluboicosplays]

Just curious how many sheets of craft foam would I need to make the helmet? I purchased the templates earlier.

[@CaptainCosplay]

+Yusin Hobbies I used 2 sheets of red and 1 sheet of black.

[@RockabillyRagsdale]

I want 1. Wish u were sellin them!

[@CaptainCosplay]

+Rockabilly Ragsdale I’m going to be fairly busy for the next 2 or 3 weeks, but you could put in a custom order on my Etsy store.

[@stravage1740]

What thickness foam did you use

[@spider-ty7420]

I would use 6 millimeter foam.

[@green_sakura]

can you do a template pls

[@CaptainCosplay]

I do have a template! There's a link in the description to my Etsy store, where you can grab it for just a couple dollars.

[@jacob_h_pggj5794]

Quick question do you have to use plastidip?

[@CaptainCosplay]

Not necessarily. You can also use Mod Podge or watered down White Glue to seal the foam. But, then you’ll also have to paint it red. I used red Plastidip because it allowed me to kill two birds with one stone.

[@khairulanwar4804]

Can i want your rood helmet 😭

[@Marshall_Garage]

how thick was the foam dude?

[@CaptainCosplay]

I used 5mm craft foam from Hobby Lobby. You can also get it at Walmart.

[@blondrrey9909]

Can I do this with cardboard?

[@CaptainCosplay]

+Tommy Jarvis Yes, but not by following this method or using these templates. Cardboard can only bend in one direction, so you have to shape it a lot more with darts and folds in your pattern pieces.

[@rodie7776]

I can't look at the templates in etsy

[@CaptainCosplay]

+Rodie 777 The templates still need to be resized, but they will be available soon.

[@CaptainCosplay]

+Rodie 777 I fixed the link and the templates are now available.

[@CaptainCosplay]

+Dice Off The templates are now available. Glad to see you’re so excited!

[@AtuGame]

template?

[@CaptainCosplay]

Yup! There’s a link to my Etsy store in the video description. You can get the template there.

[@lalshortshot2051]

Will you sell these i want one

[@CaptainCosplay]

I’m a bit busy right now, but if you contact me in a month or so, I might be able to put one together.

[@bigbrazy1545]

Captain Cosplay are you busy now could you make one ??

[@jensomething9655]

U should have more subs

[@flabigaming6281]

yo can I have templates?

[@CaptainCosplay]

The templates are available from my Etsy store, which is linked in the description.
