How to Make Robot Feet from EVA Foam - Destiny Sweeper Bot Build

Britt has started her costume build for DragonCon! The character is her favorite from the video game Destiny. This first video takes the EVA foam robot feet all the way from templates, to cutting and gluing, and even adding the shoe attachments.

Workout regimen for Broombot cosplay: Do not use entire lower body for six uninterrupted weeks. Do not worry about the severe muscular atrophy, as you will be using the broom to support your weight for the duration of the convention.

[@EvilTedSmith]

YES! The broom-bot! I can't wait to see this at Blizz Con.

[@punishedprops]

Not sure if Sweepy is coming to BlizzCon, but it would be appropriate since the Blizzard launcher will have the PC version of Destiny 2 :)

[@rachelmaksy]

Perfect timing ahh! I was panicking about making my Wonder Woman boots so this is so helpful! 😂 You guys ruuuuule.

[@missimperfectlyfine7]

didn't expect to find Rachel here!

[@taylormiller590]

Yes, Sweeperbot! I hope someone at dragoncon does a cabal so you can pose with them dead on the floor.

[@punishedprops]

Haha, yes!

[@tylertruesdale8677]

That's awesome. And really good advice when you said to just focus on one part of a costume until it's wearable then move to the next.

[@punishedprops]

It helps a lot with feeling like progress is happening!

[@HelpMe4545]

This is super helpful, great to see how you break down your costumes. Good luck with the rest can't wait to see it finished.

[@DigitalSwagg]

Super Job! I'm not a prop builder but I absolutely enjoy watching you and Bill create your masterpieces! Love it!

[@sweeetjuicetv]

oh my goodness this is a lifesaver, i actually have ideas for my HEV suit shoes now thank youuu 😭

[@daneos90]

I really love the details in your work!

[@LonChaneyJrfan52]

The feet came out really cool. I'm definitely going to be bookmarking this video for reference on a future build.

[@mattmoseley6429]

Just pulled a life cast I made of myself over the weekend for practicing props and makeup stuff. Many thanks for all the wonderful tutorials!

[@punishedprops]

That's awesome!

[@KazplayVideos]

Sewing webbing onto velcro so that it glues down better, now that is a FANTASTIC tip! Thank you!

[@punishedprops]

You're welcome, Kazplay!

[@AJ-mw4nb]

You're a genius! I love it! Thanks for giving me the hope to make my cosplay... I was so intimated by the complexity. You're my hero

[@laylamiranda6173]

omg, I needed this tutorial so bad for a cosplay I'm making. Great job!

[@kugumimi]

this was really informative and helpful, i can't wait to see the rest of the build!!

[@apony6263]

I hope I'm this good with Eva foam at some point

[@punishedprops]

Lots of practice and a sharp knife do wonders. We're all still learning, though!

[@apony6263]

thanks so much!

[@josephmiksan5365]

Woo! Going to DragonCon for the first time this year! Hopefully get to run into you both. Thanks for the advice about building one part of the costume until completion. I've been working on a Zenyatta costume for a while now and I've completely scraped it twice because I've cut all the parts at once and messed up the sizing. Going to give it another try, but probably won't be ready in time for September.

[@matthewcook1771]

I have watched this series for at least ten times. I love destiny and I LOVE THIS COSPLAY!!

[@db7314]

Excellent :) look forward to seeing the rest and voice modulation!

[@Grenthor_The_Mighty]

getting hype already got the foam broom build!

[@punishedprops]

So much hype!

[@HungLikeScrat]

All I can say is wow. I look forward to the rest of the build.

[@BuceGar]

Wow, great fabrication. Impressive stuff.

[@pytle]

So awesome! Im amazed the sweeper bot is not a common cosplay, they are so fun to see around!

[@punishedprops]

It's so true!

[@kristapurvis191]

i love how you do these robot builds!

[@drmngbg]

These turned out so cool!

[@franco3584]

Beautiful Work , You and Bill Rock !

[@punishedprops]

+franco goss Thanks Franco!

[@jessicawardrake8380]

Omfg Sweeperbottttt this made my whole day!!! If I don't run into you while you wear this I'll cry forever!! I love this so much!!!

[@3DPrintedProps]

Great idea for the shoes.

[@Elkyrie2]

this video is good motivation to keep building my own robot costume... sometimes it becomes a chore to finish things, ha.

[@punishedprops]

Glad we could help :)

[@wkinne1]

I am wanting to make a mascot for my robotics team, you do fantastic work, please continue to share. I live in a very small, poor community and without something like this we could make nothing better than a cardboard box robot mascot, PLEASE CONTINUE THIS PROJECT ON KZbin!!! PLEASE

[@soup2634]

That's so good! Can't wait to see more

[@wgsmcw2012]

Amazing crafting skills, Britt!

[@punishedprops]

Thanks!

[@groundbreakerexplore]

Thanks for sharing this video tutorial.

[@MrDamienB87]

Thank you for these videos I'm learning so much from them, looking forward to seeing more progress!

[@punishedprops]

+Alex Whiskers You're welcome!

[@Konigsmask]

These look amazing! I debuted my Cayde-6 cosplay over the weekend at a convention. The armor over the shoes didn't stick because I didn't cut marks into it like you showed in the video! I'll definitely use that from now on

[@punishedprops]

Awesome! I'd love to follow Cayde around as Sweepy :)

[@mcesmy]

These are beautiful

[@SmR8008]

Those shoes are brilliant 😊

[@chiparooo]

Wow! Well done.

[@GlockUSMC]

@Punished Props Simply Amazing!!!!

[@benjaminds7465]

This looks amazing, stellar tips!

Nice build!

Great video Britt!!!! Will be super helpful for this year's robot build of mine :)

[@punishedprops]

Thanks!

[@23MRNOLIMIT]

No heel flap?... Anywho, another rad vid and build. Hopefully, I'll see you guys at Dragon Con which is in my home city, can't believe how big it's gotten over the years.

[@littellmonster]

this looks awesome!!

[@liamwarren3086]

Your strapping tutorials helped me so much when I did my Agent Venom cosplay! I'm glad that you went so in depth with this one, it'll help tremendously with strapping in the future. Speaking of which, where do you submit pictures of fan cosplay?

[@NarutoNation]

Looking cool!

[@GTRichardson7]

great job! looking forward to seeing how you do his more delicate robot hands! (so many people do really bulky robot hands in cosplay builds.)

[@punishedprops]

The fingers may be just painted on body suit gloves. We'll see how it goes!

[@killerbunny3192]

Great build!!!

[@Pistoialuca]

This is fantastic!! well made

[@punishedprops]

Thanks!

so weird that your tutorial was easier to follow than 90 percent of those I've found on the internet

[@sapphireelf2271]

omg!!! amazing work!!!!!

[@hollywoodtiger182]

great video, feet can be tough,the design is awesome and can be used for any robot or armor character😀

[@punishedprops]

So true, I hope this build helps other types of costumes.

[@miaoumiouRC]

Amazing Video !!!

thid is so amazing and inspiring. thank you for sharing

[@skoue4165]

Nice build

[@i.am.adrian]

Nice video, Britt! Hope to run into you at DragonCon!

[@punishedprops]

See you there!

[@jsonlee01]

Another great video, Brittany! What are you going to use to seal, paint and protect? I'm making some boot covers out of foam but they are going to end up being one continuous piece so I'm afraid the paint will wrinkle or crack. I'm thinking of using Angelus leather paint but what do I use to seal the foam and then seal the paint?

[@thisisridiculous337]

Holy guac using the nylon is a great idea!

[@punishedprops]

It's so handy!

[@Jpetersson]

The Godess of foam, strikes again! :-D

[@nukert658]

awesome project! makes me want to make hanzos shoes from OW

[@punishedprops]

Do eeeeeet :)

[@alsmith1025]

So Cool!

[@chelsiehaeg131]

yessssss lol can't wait for the next video! Brittany you are my secret cyber best friend lol. you make some of the coolest cosplay!

[@sikyist]

Great video. You really need a twitch link in description, though.

[@punishedprops]

Good thinking! Added. twitch.tv/punishedprops

[@michaelsuffi8505]

yes!I love destiny builds! keep up he good work

[@punishedprops]

Thanks! I can't imagine what our build schedule will look like after Destiny 2 releases, haha.

[@michaelsuffi8505]

Punished Props lol yeah! I can't wait for that

[@bieneratschool]

Thank you for making this video, it helps to figure it out how to make Ida's (from Boku no hero academia) hero costume shoes

[@punishedprops]

That's great, you're welcome!

[@dougmckay9524]

Hi I have a question for you I do love the boots ,would you think that they could be used in my build (Cylon centurion ) the lower level is very basic I just finished the leg bans that are be teen the ankle and knee but for feet that's were they didn't pay to munch atention? I would like your opinion on this.

[@maddoxmcalpine]

Your building this while I'm trying to get my foam to stick together lol

[@filbert910]

amazing.

[@trintrin3507]

Haha I have to show my dad this! He works for Bungie so he would love to show his friends this

[@punishedprops]

That's fantastic! =D

[@ChonnyVision]

Nice!

[@BigPete7407]

pretty cool

[@jordanknight2243]

awesome!!!!!

[@celestialbody6890]

Sweet!

[@kerricaine]

see, the strapping and stuff is really useful! i find most people don't cover how to do that! i'll be using the nylon webbing technique from now on!

[@adamkuklis3012]

Wow, cool!! Britt, you're so good - it looks so easy when you're working with EVA foam :) Any chance you've done a warlock helmet and have a video? :)

[@punishedprops]

Thanks! We haven't made a warlock. Maybe after we play Destiny 2 :)

[@gr2192]

you make it look so easy ahah

[@hypercalcium]

Hey! I was wondering if you sell these templates anywhere... The feet here would be perfect for a costume I'm rebuilding and I could really use a hand. Thanks!

[@Krisswords]

Cool Great job

[@punishedprops]

Thank you!

[@iTerra_]

Can you tell me what the insoles are like on those shoes? Most sip-ons I find are the foam insoles which my feet destroy in like a month but I need something like those for one of my current projects.

[@punishedprops]

The insoles seem good so far--we'll see how they fair at a convention. We tend to buy a pair of fancy insoles that we move between cosplay shoes.

[@ExceedAccel]

I think sweeper bot is the hardest working bot in the game. Two games and a destroyed city and she's still dedicated to her work...and she doesn't even get payed for it.

[@VanOaksProps]

Is it crazy that I want those for everyday wear? LOL. I love me a good pair of futuristic shoes, Nike Mag and the like.

[@punishedprops]

We need more space shoes :)

[@SlytherinReviews]

awesome

[@walterlewis1029]

You are amazing artist.

[@punishedprops]

Awww thanks!

[@walterlewis1029]

@@punishedprops Punished Props Academy Can I ask a question I need some advice. About making head & feet for a Krook from Donkey Kong Country 2

[@JimmeeAnimAll]

Awesome costume. May I ask , You said about link in description for online templates , where is it ? Also Your handheld dremel part is way different from the one in video. Is it some custom made grip or purchasable upgrade part ? Thanks in advance, have a great day ;) !

[@punishedprops]

Are you talking about the template maker for the cone shapes? We have a link towards the bottom of the description: www.templatemaker.nl/index.php?template=cone&lang=en The rotary tool in the video is actually the Foredom rotary tool, which can be found here: amzn.to/2TI5Gj7

[@LightGesture]

How do you make mech legs and arms stay in place?

[@druidelf3]

Could you explain what you meant with some velcro or elastic fabric not taking the hot glue like a champ? Please explain....

[@punishedprops]

Elastic and stretchy materials can peel away from hot glue. Here's a more detailed video on adding straps to armor with nylon webbing and elastic: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpDUqYCLgdiFZ8U

[@propmadelarp]

you are the best !

[@darransykes4315]

When will the blueprints for this build be available in your store?

[@punishedprops]

We aren't planning on making blueprints for this build.

[@illwill0131]

How would you go about making a megaman boot that is flexible to walk in

[@GroundWatery]

I'm not seein' the link for that frustum template. Am I just missing it, somehow?

[@punishedprops]

It's in the tools and materials list as "Cone Template Maker". Here ya go: www.templatemaker.nl/index.php?template=cone&lang=en

[@DaftBastard1]

personally i wouldve used a pair of sturdy heeled boots and removed the heel for the empty heel effect, or even made a clear heel our of acrylic so it couldve been more comfortable to walk in

[@punishedprops]

That's a great option too!

[@Gravitythewolf]

Is there a downable pattern for this?

[@sagc12]

There are water shoes??

[@N-R-]

this would great for making Tracer's shoes

[@punishedprops]

I agree!
