Holy moly look at all these comments. Tay, you and Eric are such a blessing to the cosplay world. Here's hoping you get many more sponsored tutorials and subscribers to your Patreon so many more people can learn from you ^_^

[@carly_usie647]

I fully agree

[@Sikura14]

I just started working on All out KDA Akali cosplay and this tutorial couldn't have come at a perfect time! i already went ahead and got the pattern! Thank you so much for sharing on how you make your props and other cosplay accessories! I always have fun watching and giving your patterns a go! Keep up the awesome work Kinpatsu!!

[@elemental_chimera]

I can't even BELIEVE how incredible your KDA props look. Fantastic work and thank you for sharing!! ♥

[@cyberstourdiary]

YESSSSS Been waiting for this! My baby Akali!!!!

[@elleizu]

[@TheJedaiHero9000]

ABSOLUTELY liked and enjoyed watching this. These weapons look REAL fraking EPIC right here!!! Yet another QUALITY cosplay tutorial. 👌

[@cocopop183]

Im not into cosplay but this just popped up in my recommended and decided to watch it I gotta say this is reallyyyyy well done

[@asmitaghosh1148]

I love how clean your work is! It's amazing !

[@iwantabiscuitplz]

This is masterful! Amazing work.

[@swingularity1119]

The paint job is absolutely rockin. I was wondering what program Eric uses to do all of the modeling work?

[@KinpatsuCosplay]

Eric uses Maya for a lot of these and sometimes Zbrush as well depending on how organic the shape is :)

[@maotrax1163]

I swear i Just saw the miniature and though it was only a reference Photo. But then i enteredn and OMFG thats amazing

[@idabressendorff4513]

I would love to see how you make the patterns :)

[@KinpatsuCosplay]

These were all made using 3D models. Eric creates them in 3D (Normally Maya or Zbrush) Then he uses pepakura to turn the 3D models into a flat pattern. Then if necessary I make small alterations on the final pattern to work for foam :3

[@queenahrii7879]

@@KinpatsuCosplay We need a video for that!

Tayla you have just made my most two favorite weapons in KDA and your amazing 👍👍

I have never in my life made anything similar to cosplay but I want to make this just to have it laying around

HEY!! Do you know if theres a good alternative to the barge contact adhesive? I cant buy it in england 😭 and where did you buy the foam from? It looks amazing xx

It is looks so unreal

[@Wannscd]

Tanks a lot for pattern❤

[@verameszaros5518]

Its amazing :DD Do Akali wig tutorial

[@HiememMeow]

Holy cow You are the Legend.

[@danosu3215]

I love it! What kind of tape are you using? Sometimes my tape gets some of the paint off but yours works just fine!

[@KinpatsuCosplay]

I got it from an airbrushing shop. It did still chip off a little paint which I had to fix. But the ones the airbrush shops sell are normally better quality for painting

[@danosu3215]

@@KinpatsuCosplay Alright! Thank you!! ❤

[@samanthataylor_]

You are so talented! Can you make Evelyn’s claws? I think they would look amazing!!

[@jasbro3933]

This looks amazing!!! I’m always impressed with your work! I was also wondering where you get your Eva foam from?

[@TheOnlyTQ]

These look amazing, I love the paintjob! I've also been using createx airbrush paints lately for my own props. I was wondering what sealer you use that doesn't dull the metallics.

[@grzechu7508]

Yo its so cool

[@thanhnamnguyen2807]

Awesome video

[@SvGarcia96]

I already downloaded the pattern. It's my first time downloading something like that n I was afraid haha. Anyway, THANK U for this. It really helps me a lot. N I was wondering, are u going to make the motorcycle helmet?

[@neuzalemes4071]

Omg! Perfect!

[@michellekaehn249]

i would love to see these as earrings

[@VasilissaOcean]

Are you going to be doing Seraphines diamond things too?

[@ezekielleninaranzanso4174]

These works are great! I've always been following your videos for cosplay props techniques. Say, how about working the Devil Arms of Dante and Vergil (the Devil Sword Dante and the Yamato) from Devil May Cry series?

[@vincent_afton5689]

That’s cool

[@sineadsnailsy3413]

Hi vince

[@Niiuthings]

I LOVE U SINCE UR JINX MAKE UP IN 2013

[@centainedejong3620]

What colour is the light blue paint you use for the base? It's not in the paint overview and I find it hard to figure out what you mixed.

[@ehsaamullah515]

l looked at the thumb nail and thought nah but watching the video oh my god they look so real

[@jhinanddrugs9267]

Looks so sick holy shit

[@edakosten8376]

I LOVE YOUR COSPLAY TUTORIALS it would be AWESOME if you would do a hollow knight cosplay ❤❤

[@soap_soap]

Finally 6 days till the seraphine stage!!

[@lea721]

I love it

[@wolfboi220]

You are literally so cool

[@maryunani185]

May I know the name of little tools that used to smoothing the Eva foam

[@kjata090]

I highly suggest vallejo air paints for your airbrush and/or ink acrylic paints. Createx is okay but due to their large particle sizes they run terribly in smaller/finer airbrushes, which can cause flow issues.

[@KinpatsuCosplay]

Oh I will definitely look into Vallejo more then! I know for sure the glitter and metallic paints for the airbrush are a pain to work with! But does Vallejo sell larger bottles of paint? That's the one thing I do like about the createx paints

[@kjata090]

@@KinpatsuCosplay Unfortunately that is why downside to vallejo is they don't sell larger bottles because their main market is miniature painters. I would love to see vallejo broaden their market outside of that market one day to those like cosplayers, it'd be really cool

[@kjata090]

However, pro wise: vallejo's metallics work super well in airbrushes due to their smaller particle size that is originally meant for minis. I have yet to find a gun metal color that works better than vallejo's yet.

[@alejozr8203]

You should make a tutorial for the claws from evelyn

[@НикаТравникова-я1т]

Спасибо, это замечательно, все понятно и четко)

[@sarabeuchot3548]

Can you do Akali’s motorcycle helmet?

[@Anz__]

UNDERRATED!!- AAHH

[@kdaquinn5811]

Perfect

[@tsamaraadila555]

is there any other material that we can use instead of pvc pipe?

[@emanuelallinos6903]

i was wondering if you could make a Kayles sword tutorial?🤔

[@nyahkennedy104]

I downloaded the files and already made the Kama but with the Kanai, did you include the blade piece you drew onto the foam board? I only have the details you cut in normal foam but can’t find the template bit for the main blade piece you cut on the foam board 😩

[@KinpatsuCosplay]

Yes it's part of the pattern! :3 it's only for half the blade so it needs to be mirrored. But its in the template for sure!

[@akalisilverfang797]

Anybody know what I can substitute with EVA? 😢 I can't seem to find any near me. Thanks in advance ❤️

[@petu890]

Do you have wig tutorial for akali where She has two colors on her hair, Black and blond.

[@yuukii__18]

does the seraphine stage please

[@OutRagEouZ]

very nice work

[@aleksandrasiuda8733]

Hi, is there a kunai in these files in your store too? Because I printed these files myself and there is only kuai. And I have a question, can you give me a link to Akali True Damage Mask? Because I can't find the download file anywhere.

[@Anix-d8w]

Do you make commission?

[@valkydesigns]

Looks awesome! Does the PVA glue protect the foam from wrinckling if folded?

[@KinpatsuCosplay]

No it doesn't help with flexibility. If you bend it it will still wrinkle and can crack sometimes. But it does help with brush strokes. So we like to use it for props and static armor pieces. But anything that moves a lot would be better with something like a hexflex or plastidip

[@jotaroandkakyoin7643]

IM GOING TO MADE AKALI´S KUNAI AND KAMA

[@diamondx9149]

Hi I am a new subscriber and I love your work I just want to ask you a question since I don’t have the same materials that you use for your project so I used cardboard but I don’t know how to get that glossy look as if it’s a real weapon so what should I do?

[@KinpatsuCosplay]

PVA glue will also work on cardboard :) the glue makes the surface smooth and shiny for paint!

[@diamondx9149]

@@KinpatsuCosplay omg thx I can’t believe you actually responded I’m so happy 😁

[@iitheexiledii8384]

amazing :o

[@kent_be_yours]

I'm just wandering, how much does it cost to build those Kama and Kunai? I really want those weapons to be displayes in my house! Thank you so much!

[@gamenmetbritt3491]

So hard for me i buyed the akali all out cosplay.

[@SakuraBlizzardHime]

So how were you keeping the blade for cutting in shape. That part was pretty lacking imo. Like was that foam or like a sharpener? I know there are sharpeners.

[@KinpatsuCosplay]

You can just use some high grit sand paper to sharpen your blades between cuts :) or a knife sharpener works too.

[@shokoieiri_]

Is it possible to do a full akali cosplay tuto ? I would love to have akali’s cosplay but sometimes the quality is not what we are expecting and it cost a lot of money...

[@KinpatsuCosplay]

We'll be doing a KDA Akali for our Patreon this month! :) Patreon.com/kinpatsucosplay

@@KinpatsuCosplay YEEEEES I can’t wait ^^ I love her so muuuch, Thank you all very muuuuuuuch !

But will the patreon only have the cosplay or will you do a video about it ? Because I can’t be part of the patreons :( I’d love to but I can’t...

[@KinpatsuCosplay]

@@shokoieiri_ we won't be doing a video tutorial for the costume unfortunately. We are hoping to try do a vlog style video showing the journey of making it, but it will not be a step by step tutorial like the ones we have done here on KZbin for the weapons and seraphine wig :)

is this the same way to do it with the pattern?

Muy bonito y todo pero no le entendí y no tengo los materiales 😔

[@ivydods7321]

Hi! Can i have a question please? I downloaded this print and it doesnt seem like in this video, i just really dont know how to put it together.

[@KinpatsuCosplay]

The pattern is the same as the video! We just neatened up the numbers and lines :) the pattern connects with matching numbers. So you need to glue the edges together that have the same numbers. And then glue the section together like we showed in the video.

[@KiraRLS]

I got the same thing, for example that half of the base doesn't match the mirrored one, and when I flat the pipe, my handle piece doesn't fit the pipe :/ and I'm using the same measures of foam/pipe as in the video, can you give me a help here? Thank yoooou a lot
