RoboCop (1987) Cosplay - EVA Foam

[@Heroesworkshop]

If you want to learn how I build cosplays, watch this and apply the techniques learned to the RoboCop costume templates or any other Pepakura file templates. It’s all the same approach: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIPVl5aie6mciZI

[@mattsparling9843]

For a foam build that's outstanding work. "I'd buy that for a dollar!!"

[@davidherron3136]

great stuff, I watched that insane 3d printed robocop suit from Chris bosh props but that maybe a bit to far since it took 5 years to make lol. But this costume really looks the part and must be so much more comfortable and light to wear. I would love to attempt to build this. would it be a silly idea to start here ? is it better to just practice making something else first?

[@Heroesworkshop]

@@davidherron3136 I suggest you make the sample project helmet first from the link I posted up there. It's where to learn how to actually do this. If you grasp the concepts of that, you can really build anything with pepakura and foam. Thank for watching, David.

Hey are your robocop suits for sale?...I'm huge robocop fan and would love to buy on e of your suits

[@michaelmcgrew3621]

Awesome suit

[@AlphaProto]

In a world where everyone wants Iron Man armor. It is cool seeing someone suit up as Robocop.

[@Heroesworkshop]

So many Iron Suits popping up again. You’re right.

[@haparcheledupwar]

agree

[@GringoXalapeno]

I’d like to see Peter weller wear this suit and say dead or alive you’re coming with me

[@bobowyc]

Before i watched this video, some old robocop videos pop up on my YT. xD and now this. man. i gotta watch this again. loved it.

[@DisgruntledPigumon]

I mean even Robocop paid homage to Iron Man in the liquor store scene. 😅 I want to see real comic Iron Man, not the MCU stuff.

[@Subfightr]

AHHHHH!! And he's got THE MOVES! Oh dude lol I'm 40 years old and I feel like a kid again just watching this, I can't imagine how cool it would be to see you in an expo or something. So happy for you

[@Heroesworkshop]

Thanks so much, dude. I appreciate it.

[@wayne3302264]

I bow to you, excellent job that took a lot of patience and skill. "Your coming with me, dead or alive"

[@spiderdad5839]

not gonna lie, as a 45 yr old man, I have always dreamed of being ROBOCOP and you, my friend did it... now I must have that. I only wish I had the time and patience to make it. That is freaking sweet. THank you for bring back my childhood. I am jealous, but at the same time, I feel like a kid again.

[@radagastaddams3703]

it's amazing how big an impact putting on the helmet has. once your head is covered & u just see your chin & mouth it really brings it to life.

[@Orgotholik]

Wow, so well done on the construction side... but then you NAILED IT on the movement/mannerisms side as well! Talent!

[@PINGPONGBANDIT]

I watched robocop as a kid for the first time around 1991-1993, ever since I've dreamed of having costume like that, this is so cool man

[@TheGeronimojack]

WOW! Awesome job on the outfit! I can't believe it is made of foam. Excellent work!

[@Heroesworkshop]

Foam can still really surprise people. Even me.

[@jasonamigo023]

The paint job is great too. I like how you captured the silver + purplish blue tint that made Robocop iconic. Most times people make it either too blue or are too conservative in the tinting and make it too silver.

[@Heroesworkshop]

Thanks buddy. I kind of just went for it and didn’t look back with the approach. Worked out well.

[@ronbusby3335]

Simply Outstanding job!

[@Heroesworkshop]

Glad you like it!

[@zombiehunter1152]

Wow , what’s even more amazing is you made it in 3 weeks.

[@Heroesworkshop]

I was super motivated because the convention was that many weeks away. I work best under pressure.

[@zombiehunter1152]

@@Heroesworkshop yeah but still 3 weeks that’s impressive. Yeah motivation is the biggest thing in any project.

Absolutely phenomenal build!!!! I've owned 2 of the Bruce Hansing fiberglass Robosuits. They were hot, uncomfortable and very fragile. Your EVA suit looks every bit as good without the issues!!!

[@Heroesworkshop]

Thank you! I can attest that wearing this was lots of fun and very comfortable considering it’s a complete full suit of armor.

[@Heroesworkshop]

Thanks! I was a bit rusty after not wearing it for a month but it still worked out well.

[@GrandCrusader]

I'd buy that for a dollar !! great work dude. I would kill to have my own robosuit...sigh...someday

Congrats, this is the power of the EVA foam; not to mention, anyone ca bet this is super light weight...

[@jasonamigo023]

I remember the days when this costume was still on the drawing boards. Back in the Hero Tutorials days. I can't believe it's been more than a decade since then. Great to see you back, and in this suit! I guess I'm kinda in the same boat as you. I lost the drive to build costumes the past 3 years and found no compelling reason to make a new one. But now I'm trying to learn the basics of 3D printing to upgrade my Mark 85 helmet, and finally (after 10 years) have the know how to have it fully motorized.

[@Heroesworkshop]

Back then, it was a cardboard attempt. That was almost 10 years ago. I guess it was better off that I didn’t actually follow through back then. I still had to level up my own skills. I probably wouldn’t have been too happy with it back then to he honest. A lot of people have been printing that Mark 85 suit. It seems like the gateway into full 3D armors these past few years. It’s a very impressive project once it’s completed.

[@jasonamigo023]

@@Heroesworkshop Your posts of the cardboard drawings are exactly what I remember! Haha. For some reason they're almost a core memory from the days I was active on the RPF and the FB page. I don't think I have space for a new Mark 85, and I think my foam suit holds up pretty well (maybe tweak it a bit for its next outing). So I decided that I'm only gonna redo the helmet and finally tackle motorization.

[@Subfightr]

I have found a new video format that will work starting with my next build. I’ll be able to craft and enjoy it without feeling too pressured. It’ll definitely work. The key is just finding that balance. Hope you build again soon!

[@phoenixblack1220]

[@Heroesworkshop]

[@VariablePenguin]

So freaking awesome! Glad to see you finally finish RoboCop. I know it's been on your list for a long time. You do such a great job with the movement too.

[@Heroesworkshop]

Thanks, Brian! I wore this for 5 hours at the convention that day and the longer I was in the suit, the better I got. Fatigue of wearing it luckily didn’t hamper the practice I got in it that day. I was a bit rusty here in this video, as it’s been a month now of not wearing it or doing the walk in it but I still had the right idea for the video. I’ll probably keep the concept of the movements with me forever at this point.

[@vankeithbarnes1333]

Usually you can 3D print something like this very easily and way more accurately but I hadn’t seen many Robocop suits made by hand in Eva foam. I guess it really was one of those cosplays that’s difficult to get right by hand. I’m glad I gave it a shot and I’m glad you like it

I subscribed to your channel. The stuff you’re doing is a lot of what I used to do with molding and casting props in the past many years ago before I switch for cosplaying and making foam stuff. So it’s really nice to see people still doing it. It’s so rare to see these days. Your molds are super clean.

[@ChrisBoshProps]

@@Heroesworkshop I subscribed also sir! Thank you for the compliment. Yeah molding is kind of a lost art these days, 3d printing has made everything so much easier and cheaper but I still find it fun to do with certain projects and making some 3d prints more practical for wearing. I look forward to more of your projects. I'm doing a 3D printed Mark 3 Iron Man and I watched your video with yours and it got me excited to push forward. I might need to mold the neck piece similar to what you did.
