Making EVA Chainmail Pauldrons from The Witcher 3

So I am super excited to get to try some EVA foam chainmail from Ben Eadie and decided to make the pauldrons from the Kaer Morhen armor in The Witcher 3. Now that it is out of the way, I guess that means a full build of this armor will be coming with it :). In this build, I used 2mm EVA foam chainmail from FoamArmory, 6 mm & 2 mm What the Foam from Cosplay Apprentice 4 mm EVA foam, velcro, 1-inch elastic banding, contact cement, super glue, Plasti Dip, spray paint, Plaid FX acrylic paint. You may also need the following tools: a heat gun, a Dremel with various bits, a wood burner, and an Xacto knife or box cutter.

This is so cool, it looks like real chainmail

[philabot]

That chainmail is awesome! Great paint job

[TristanMaker]

Nice build! I love the paintjob you made, the chainmail looks like real metal!

[jurginvon]

I understand the "dirty it up" idea is more not only more accurate, but more real world as well. STILL, can't help but like your original a little better. Just the stark pop for color contrast of leather and steel. Awesome use of some great material. *~Cheers~*

my husband looks foreword to your video each week .

THANK YOU!!!! I have most of my cosplay done but these shoulder pieces seemed so much more scary than they actually were. Your templates were super handy and I used the same foam chainmail also so it worked out perfectly!

[Anubox]

I'm really digging this build man it's fantastic, and not knocking you at all, and it's pronounced like Care-more-in or hen when you say it all together.

[MunchSkating]

That leather effect you’ve painted is really impressive! Looking forward to seeing the rest of it

[Jhermiemason]

Awe. Man that is amazing great job. Hope you are safe during this pendemic

[popspropshop]

Cool build. I've watched other builders make chain mail items. Never wanted to make my own, until NOW! 👊

[traciakierman]

I love working with this foam chainmail. It's so easy and it looks amazing. You did a fantastic job!

[amandaggogo]

This was incredibly helpful! Getting ready to start making the Kaer Mohren armor (I'm a sewist, I am not well versed with foam armor) and was wondering how on earth to do the chain mail! These look great!

[rudasill]

Awesome build and a very interesting product may have to look into it.

[weskerz]

You are officially my new favorite maker! So many good builds with easy to follow templates! Your work is incredible. I'm new to prop making and I'm currently working on the spartan helmet. Your videos will be getting me through this lock down for sure

[vifu]

I love your work keep going never stop pro..

[lawdrl]

The top peice on the right hand side could be used as a mask template js

[warbob]

Exceptional work, man. I'm about to attempt this piece for my first ever foam build and have all the material ready to go. Noob question regarding the template: would I just print it on regular 8 x 10 and transfer the exact dimensions to the foam? Any scaling needing?
Very cool of you to provide the template and instructions for free btw!

[MrHonk-mycc]

I just wanted to ask when will you do another jigsaw prop

[vifu]
