I just can't believe this stuff exist...if only you knew how much work we had to do for the same result 20 years ago...I'm tired just thinking about it. Really, really amazing product.

[@veroniquehachenberger2217]

True to that.

[@Ninja563]

People make worbla look so easy to use x-x

[@DaveronaDesigns]

your pokemon edit was hysterical! this was super informative, I want to try it right meow!

[@aSnowyEvening]

Your videos have come a long way! This was adorable, hilarious, and incredibly informative! Thank you so much for this!

[@j.s.connolly8579]

WOW! As a Life Long "Costumer" who is soon to be 55 I have to say that THIS was an AWESOME VIDEO! And Until now I had never even HEARD of "WORBLA"! But I WILL be using it on the NEXY Costume I build! Again GREAT Video and thanks for all of the detailed tips. That is SO IMPORTANT when doing ANY "Demo"! I've seen SO MANY Video Demos where people leave out MAJOR Details that to me are very important to what is being done AND the materials being worked with! Nice Job. :D Joe

[@madnessbydesignVria]

It always cracks me up when you say "Boobie-cups". Your work is always top-notch, and it's not surprising how many people you've inspired. Kudos! :)

[@willmciff3606]

Thank you so much! This tutorial saved my bacon when a mask from EVA foam went terribly wrong. A layer of black worbla and some paint tips from Benni made it look fantastic.

[@KamuiCosplay]

That's awesome!!! Glad to help!

[@mountainjune]

I'm a seamstress and cosplay whenever I can but I've always been intimdated by the 'hard parts' (armor, props ect.) in any costume. So I've always avoided costumes with armor peices in them, having wished I didnt have to. I purchased your book The Costume Making Guide and feel infinitely better. Worbla doesn't scare me anymore. Your book and breakdown on how to work with it and what to expect has really helped me. Now to choose an epic costume for my next project. I've subcribed to your channel and look forward to viewing all your videos. :)

[@KamuiCosplay]

Glad I could help with my book! :)

[@romance3110]

Ich bin jedes Mal fasziniert und dankbar über eure Videos. Vielen Dank ❤

[@CherishDuhhofficial]

LOL i just fell in love with you "specially the booby cups" lmfaoooo

[@KamuiCosplay]

What? How else would you call them?

[@CherishDuhhofficial]

I think most people say "cup" But i prefer your terminology it's wayyyyy more cute and added many chuckles and kept me interested. You're definitely talented and have a great personality while you teach. Loved it all around. I wasn't critiquing you i was admiring

[@Ddarke11]

Having just woken up, I had to keep going back to make sure I was hearing it right.

[@Uncle_Baby_Billy]

this girl cracks me up, she's such a dork.

[@webchez69]

She is not a dork.... That is her KZbin persona. Watch her when she is not talking... She is really super serious...

[@omikronweapon]

stepped on someone's dick XD #leavekamuialone

[@lmr2797]

So you’re describing yourself ;)

[@Glo349]

You're so quirky! I love it!

[@Cosm310-38]

Love the video edits!!😂 you guys always teach me something new along with a nice laugh

[@nerdymouth953]

Svetlana, I love your videos! You're so adorable and funny and your costumes are AMAZING! Thanks for making such great video tutorials!!

[@sayanuij4149]

Wow, just wow. You make everything look so easy, I can't wait to start making my own armor with Worbla (I am going for Valkyrie Leona from League of Legends). My boyfriend gave me your book as a present and it is also a very good guide for me. You are an awesome cosplayer and I love all your tutorials

[@JujubaFitts]

You're a great inspiration for me, Svetlana. I hope one day i could be like you.

[@funkertron]

how much does a full suit of armour normally cost you to make ?

[@rypli8309]

A lot

[@timothygorman5111]

I just bought a lot of your e-books! I am so excited!

[@WJT225]

I have to say I've seen a bunch of your videos and have most of your ebooks and I just love the way you explain everything as well as how your own cosplays turn out (Dark Valkyrie Diana being my favorite). Just keep being amazing :)

[@jasondonnell9628]

This is neat and all, not be a downer, but I make props and have used many types of materials. One thing I have found though is that a dark base (like this new black) can tend to fudge the accuracy of lighter paints. This can be overcome but it will require additional time, effort and alternate primer colors before being able to lay the final color.

[@PhoenixEncore]

OMGOOODNESS! That beginning!!! I almost chocked because I was eating, but it was awesomely funny! "Worbla's evolving" LOL

[@mrmaged2988]

You are the source of my inspiration. Love you♥️♥️

[@RyouNoMegami]

Danke kamui for short tutorial! Was really helpful. I haven't used worbla yet. But after seeing this video I really want to try :D

[@ray24051]

Wow I never heard of this material it sounds very versatile.

[@0range1968UK]

thankyou ..loved watching your creative process.. very informative and a world away from painstakingly cutting pieces of sofa foam i did whilst doing Circus & stageshow costumery

[@SilvermoonHext]

Great video! Can't wait to try some. My biggest issue with normal worbla was how much you had to sand it afterwards to try and smooth it out. Black worbla looks much better. Thanks Kamui! :)

[@sirenerouge2658]

I love the Pokémon intro 😂❤️

[@dullbatarang165]

If you wanted a super smooth finish, I bet you could brush on some smooth cast product on top like they do with regular foam.

[@meridianfrost2890]

Can you please tell me what dress form you use? I want to make sure that the one I purchase will be compatible with worbla.

[@starainbowchepa]

Hello! What size are the acrylic cups being used in this video? Beautiful work ❤️‍🔥

[@cinerdella4693]

I am so in love with your skill

[@emmaarrostiti8506]

Wow fantastic. I just have one question, how do you wear it? do you add elastics at the back?

[@noctrena]

awesome work. I have been trying to get clear worbla forever so I am guessing that this new stuff is gonna be hard to get as well

[@alfredogarcia4102]

Just saw three of your videos, I am very impressed. Got my mind thinking for next Halloween, thank you! :-)

[@dizzyliz1x1x2]

I love the color advantage for painting!

[@graywolfstudios4983]

Hello! I absolutely love your tutorials! they're extremely helpful! I do have a question; as I am venturing further into armor I was wondering where to get the clear half sphere shape to shape the booby cups? Thank you for all you help!

[@starksparkle]

You're so cuteeee💚

[@AfricanEmpress01]

These were nice. Didn't know you could do this with Black Worbla. Brown worbla is too stiff for this. TY P.E.A.C.E

[@biologicalFallacy]

you are so cuuuuute!!! (as always) awesome video kamui!

[@MaddySantamaria]

I love your videos soooooo much!!

[@michaelsciortino6765]

I absolutely love your new videos! :3 keep up the great work

[@josemanuel2724]

Gosto muito das suas ideias são bonitas amei o seu vídeo parabéns pelo seu vídeo éstais bonita

[@IChroniclesofNerdiaI]

Your tutorials are awesome I love your new studio so much~ Just needed to state this upfront :D

[@iClowns]

How amazing! It's great that I found your channel! Like!!!

[@spellbunny]

I bet you get a lot of cosplay questions but I also just love your fashion/style in real life!

[@Shandykey]

Seh mir grad fast all deine Sachen an, weil bald german Comic Con ist :D. Hoffe man sieht dich dort auch. Deine Sachen sind wirklich hilfreich. Jetzt müsste man nur genug kohle haben x"D

[@FableLilly]

I actually want to try this ❤️❤️❤️

[@AkemikunCosplay]

Question!! What size craft foam do you use Kamui?? Thanks!!

[@davidsitruk813]

I have a question, you must put the glue after you finish costume your project? For why you doing this? Why does it help? Thanks❤

[@aelaria]

Sehr hilfreiches Video, gefällt mir! Wenn du das machst, sieht das so unglaublich einfach aus... Ich habe letztens auch meine erste Brustplatte machen wollen, bin auch gut vorangekommen, allerdings hatte ich Probleme mit den Körbchen, da ich diese etwas zu nah beieinander gesetzt habe :/ Aber ich versuche es weiter! Und nochmal, super Video!

[@loveanakin85]

Awesome vid as always! Especially when in english. You ROCK Kamui😍 (p.s. love the outtakes at the end😆)

[@SATALIT3]

Makes a hat out of worbla, Slams it on head. Perfect!

[@BrinkofArt]

I want to make a fin for the top of my LARP helmet, wich is made out of plastic. The helmet most definitely will experience stress from actual hand-to-hand-combat. My question is, wich kind of worbla I should use for the fin. Black Worbla looks amazing, but I figure that regular Worbla (especially the glue) is more resistant. Which one should I use?

[@chillinator]

Awesome. Great information and a zany-yet-engaging presentation ;)

[@KamuiCosplay]

Thanks! What's a zany-yet?

[@chillinator]

It's part of a "compound modifier" (zany + yet + engaging) It's a series of words meant to be read together as a modifier to the noun - so "zany-yet-engaging" is a compound adjective describing your presentation. Don't sweat it - it's a compliment - lol - and I subscribed ;)

[@bleuduster]

This has actually helped me a lot, thanks so much!

[@thefeatheredheart9455]

I very much enjoy your videos! Thanks for the awesome tips.

[@ComfortablyLost2020]

Love your stuff, learning so much

[@nes.kuik2249]

That looks so amazing!!! I jzs’t don’t dare to imagine how difficult i must be fir a beginner to work with worbla....

[@Cousin_Mikey]

Hi 👋!!! What kind of wax do you use to coat the mold so the worbla won’t stick? Specific brand would help a lot.

[@thenar]

Thanks Kamui, that was helpful.

[@Turial]

Darn you make it look so easy :) I was wondering if you had to sand anything with the black worbla?

[@latuacantante1990]

Ugh... you make it look so easy...

[@MLadyKlee]

This is good to know. However how can you tell if the paint is quality?

[@blukuro]

I have a quick question about painting! I primed my worbla with modge podge, but I was wondering if it would work to use spray paint on it? I’m just worried about it rubbing off:’) Also, I just want to say that I love your cosplays and your videos so much! Your channel is always my go-to when I need help with what I’m working on! Thank you for taking the time to make these for us!!❤️

[@diosrodriguez-ih7zb]

Thank you for this video . 🙏🏻

[@vevemarieart]

That's so cool!! What kind of paint do you use?

[@tchevrier]

I was hoping you would use the transparent worbla

[@amethystgm2650]

i love this woman, she is creative and pretty Greetings from Mexico :3

[@Sirloveless86]

thanks for the review, awesome as always also your English has gotten extremely good no more subtitles!!!!!!

[@BecauseImBored1]

Does the wood glue not crack though? I'm making automail and I feel it would crack am I wrong?

[@KamuiCosplay]

Depends on which brand you are using. The german brand we use does crack very slightly but only after a year or two. You can try use Flexbond instead which you can find on cosplaysupplies.com

[@luna_marte_husky]

Love all your videos you are a genius :-)

[@CitricAciid]

HOw would you recommend making worbla into the shape of someone's shoulder?

[@kikibeernink8617]

You make it look so easy haha. Thanks for the review :)

[@nixland]

You are funny and adorable ... :) Thanks for the sharing by the way

[@CynthiaLeeFontaineOfficial]

Wuaoooooooo amazing thanks for share

[@Spaceshipbetty]

How do you keep the wood glue from separating from the worbla?

[@manucetillas]

Me gustaría saber como se llama el material que usas. I would like to know what the material you use is called. Un saludo y gracias Greetings and thank you

[@blackfire6214]

2.37 What is the white something like paper for? And why do you cut the early black wobla bigger than the pattern?

[@davidistheworst321]

"the booby cups!" I DIDNT THINK TWICE I SUBSCRIBED AS FAST AS I COULD

[@EmilyMeganX]

your work is beautiful and i am so inspired :D

[@tildehak]

So I'm gonna do Hideyoshi Nagachika in the CCG armor and I'm curious if black worbla is the way to go?

[@Mezelmoerder3D]

Ah ich sehe, du hast nun auf Englisch umgestellt und die Wohnzimmercouch gegen ein Arbeitszimmer gewechselt^^. Sehr interessant das schwarze Zeug. Scheint doch einige Vorteile gegenüber normalen Worbla zu haben. Aber was ich mich frage ist, wie oft kann man die Teile denn ersetzten? Also wie oft ist der Kleber benutzbar? Und natürlich hast du die Brustplatte angemalt, oder hat dass dein "Anmalsklave" wieder übernommen :-) ?

[@riccardo8663]

hello Kamui!! do you know if black worbla makes a smooth surface wrapping with vinyl wrap? 😱 😱

[@Paragrafin.gaming]

Hey there Kamui! Thank you so much for this amazing review! I still have a question: You used woodglue to prime your breastplate but I have read a blogpost from another cosplayer who does not suggest woodglue as a primer because it splits off when you move the black worbla around (for example when putting on a bracer) Can you confirm this or do you still recommend woodglue? Thanks so much and keep up your amazing work!

[@3DSTakemaruEX]

Nice video. If you don't mind me asking, what kind of video editing program did you use?

[@MisotoK]

Do you find that the less adhesive property of the black worbla is not as good compared to brown worbla? Or does it stick on just as well as the brown worbla in the end result?

[@crazyycandyy655]

heey! klasse video. hab deinen kanal vor ein paar tagen entdeckt und bin fasziniert von deinem talent😮bisher hab ich noch nicht mit worbla gearbeitet. hab mir aber welches bestellt und möchte bald mit meiner ersten brustplatte loslegen. nun meine frage: welche plastikkugelgröße (durchmesser) hast du für die cups benutzt? kann das ganz schlecht einschätzen...😕 danke schon mal im voraus!

[@schoolsout15]

Wondering if this might work for the application of a knight's suit of armor. (Say Sauron or a Ringwraith.) Every time I try it with EVA foam things get real bulky fast. (Has to do with the articulating segments.) Maybe if I hit it with automotive paint I could look metallic as well. Thoughts?

[@tedlasalvia9668]

Hello Svetlana - I just watched your video and I had a question about the Black Worbla. On your breastplate, you made the cups with the rough side on the outside. Is that correct? I noticed that when you used the PVA glue that it appeared to go on more smoothly on the "top" surface versus the "rough" side. Thanks in Advance!!

[@amandalufcy8898]

How do you wear this? Do you attach straps somehow to keep it on your body? I am thinking of using this for Viking armor, but I don’t know how it will stay on.

[@Tolderian]

So… 8 years later… would you still recommend Worbla? Or is straight foam the way to go?

[@KitaskeDarkAngel]

Did you put anything sturdy inside it or is it just hard when it's finished?

[@jackiestout8925]

You are soo amazing soo funny definity an inspiration💗💗💕💕💕

[@BlackDawnYaoiLover]

I've been wanting to work with Worbla for so long

[@joannawong4151]

Hello, what size of acrylic globe do you use? What is the diameter? There are a few options to choose from and I'm not sure which size is the best. Thank you!

[@bananabananaman123]

Question? What is that giant mat you used for the heating/molding surface for the video?

[@front-a-little4448]

Unrelated to black worbla: There's a brief moment in which you can be seen using your heat gun on wood glue. Is that a legit method to speed up the drying process of (watered down?) wood glue and what are the odds to get cracks/spiderwebbing when using this method ?

[@Seruki]

Any difference between black and regular Worbla..?

[@xakuxakuotaku]

what's that sheet of paper that you're heating up your worbla on? Almost looks like rice paper so the worbla wouldn't stick to your table

[@sofiemavita]

Hello, have you had any issues priming Black Worbla with Wood Glue and spray painting on top? Just worried since the Worbla website says they "strongly do not recommend" and I just bought wood glue. Thank you~!
