Female Armor No.2 - DIY Printable EVA Helmet Pattern for Cosplay, scalable PDF template

DIGITAL ITEM (print-only PDF file): EVA foam templates for a fantasy-inspired female chest armour with an optional neck guard. Ideal if you are a foam-smith, fan, collector, or planning to cosplay. Great base for all your future cosplay projects. Please be aware that a complex edge cutting is required - previous experience with EVA foam crafting is highly recommended.

WHAT IS INCLUDED
13-page print-only PDF file (digital template) set to print on US letter/or A4 paper size. All patterns are at a 1:1 scale, clearly marked and labelled with symbols and markers to give you a straightforward and pleasant crafting experience. Step-by-step drawings will help you with the most effective assembly order. Don’t forget to familiarise yourself with symbols, an edge-cutting chart, and recommended foam thicknesses on the explanatory page.

SIZE & FIT
This armor is scaled to fit approx 90cm (35in) chest circumference and 70cm (27in) waist circumference when printed at 100% printing scale. Fully aware we come in different shapes and sizes, so in case you need a smaller/bigger one - there is a scaling chart provided to help you adjust the printing scale and more info to help you make the necessary adjustments.

EVA FOAM THICKNESS & QUANTITIES
To successfully build this project you will need:
8mm EVA foam - approx 55x150cm
6mm EVA foam - approx 40x25cm
Please keep in mind that the quantities above are the very minimum to craft just 1x helmet at standard size (100% printing scale). I highly recommend getting more foam - just to have extra material in case of any cutting mistakes or adjustments when crafting.

YOUTUBE STEP-BY-STEP VIDEO
Unfortunately, I don’t have at the moment a tutorial for this specific pattern. The good news is that the assembly process is very similar across all the projects - so make sure to check my YouTube channel and watch videos on other, similar projects, learn how to adjust the printing scale for your head size, how to apply contact cement glue and many more that will help you with your build.

This project requires numerous cutting edges at various angles, and the assembly process will test your patience and gluing skills. Advanced foam crafting techniques are a must! But don’t worry - if you are stuck, or unsure: message me, and will do my best to help and advise.
