great Video, i make stop motion and use foam to built my sets. I like the idea of using the hot wire cutter to make the details instead of a pencil. Will need to try that next time.
@dazatronsdioramallama63708 ай бұрын
Thanks for watching PMZTV. Love the stop motion technique, just checked out one of your videos, great work! If you are going to use the wire cutter for details, remember to cater in the spread you get as the foam melts so you won’t get really fine lines as you would with a pencil

Thanks HBP. It depends where you are based. In the UK I get mine from Tilgear, link here www.tilgear.info/materials/plastic-materials/modelling-foam/sty050fbl-styrofoam-blocks-50-x-500-x-600mm - I’ve head Lowes home improvement sell it in America.

What fid you use to glue the bottom to the side piece?
@dazatronsdioramallama63703 жыл бұрын
I use Gorilla glue - use very sparingly though as it can expand but it gives a really strong bond

is there something you can use on top of it to give it a hard shell? and protect the foam? What kind of foam are you using?
@dazatronsdioramallama63709 ай бұрын
Good question Michael. You can use Mod Podge over the top to create a hardened finish. The foam I use is high density foam or craft foam. It comes in either grey, blue or pink usually. Hope that helps 👍

awesome...can you show how to diy castle grayskull ...im trying to do one...but i need help
@dazatronsdioramallama63703 жыл бұрын
Wow Bobby, now there’s a project. I tend to aim my videos at beginners. To complete a whole castle Grayskull would be on a more advanced level mainly because of the level of sculpting needed for the skull itself. I am looking to create a “breakout” based on the toy towers from the Grayskull toy so keep an eye out for that one.

Just regular acrylics - anything I can grab hold of. For this make, I used grey to prime the styrofoam then dry brushed with a light green and an aqua blue.
Could you use a soldering iron to "carve" the lines?
@dazatronsdioramallama63702 жыл бұрын
I haven’t tried it but I don’t see why that wouldn’t work just remember you do get some spread so however thick the tip of the soldering iron is your lines will be wider. Let me know how you get on 👍
