Hey guys, I love this vid and am definitely going to make a costume. My only concern is that I am fourteen and am only about 5 foot 6-8 ish so making one of these with the dimensions given would be absolutely massive. So, i was wondering if anyone could give me some shortened ones that are scaled a little better. Reply ASAP. thx
I've now made two helmet by following your instructions. My second is better than my first by far, I didn't have foam core board so I covered it in spackling, sanded it down, then painted it, so it doesn't look like card board but it still light weight. I also "counter balanced" it using card board on the back.
Amazing mate always wanted to do this then thought screw it il have ago 2 days ago, now sitting next to the monster just needing to add the screws and tubes love it! Will post now just for the knife and outfit!
This is amazing! Your an awesome artist and this must have been tough for you! Thanks for the help >:D I would have never been able to do this on my own.
@BagTheMEAT look at the triangle when he cuts out it... the short, pinched end is the 27 degrees because L is 90 degrees and < is like 45 (nah I think its smaller
I want to thank you so so much for uploading this wonderful tutorial! Thanks to you, I made my very own Pyramid Head helmet for Halloween this year, and it looks great! :D
can't wait to make mine. i'll probably do it more akin to the original SH2 helmet than the movie version. granted the movie version was redesigned for comfort and visibility for the wearer, but PH isn't s'posed to be comfortable in the helmet.
Hi! Just dropped by to say thanks for this awesome tutorial that helped me in the making of my own PH costume =D you can see the end result here: /watch?v=XlPqvrIPPYg
Just wanted to say, this is an absolutely brilliant video!
While I didn't use all the same dimensions and used a few different techniques here and there, this tutorial was very inspirational and a great aid to crafting my own "kahbohd" Pyramid helmet. (some nice tips from the Butcher video too, btw) Considering how often I was stopped for photos and praised for the general kickassery of my costume, I figure that goes to show what a great influence you've been. So, thank you, can't say enough.
Hey Everybody! I have just released my new electronic album “Sub-Zero” which is heavily influenced by the world of Silent Hill and the music of Akira Yamaoka. If you're interested you can listen to the full album on my youtube channel, as well as download the album for free!
@Kookaburra00 I got my cardboard from a hardware store. I have two boxes, one a fridge box another a TV box. The TV box is a lot thicker and stronger, so look for those.
thank you for the tutorial ! I could try it someday, I'm a girl but I'll make it, i'Ll not make a girly version, I'll make the real version but with a skintone top :) thanks again
Hey there, im just beginning to make mine but ive got about 14 hours to finish it! looks like im gunna be up ALLLLL night here, making it for the excel anime expo tomorrow, ill deffo give you a shout out when i upload the finished thing! hpoefully it can be done!!! (im using quick dry polycell btw, 5-20 mins drying time haha, trying to make sure i can do it in time :) )
Damn everybody just makes the Pyramid Head from the movie and Homecoming which copied the movie what happened the original Pyramid Head much different looking. The original does have details if ya look at the 3d model, it'd be interesting. This still looks great though awesome well done heh heh.
heyy man, great tutorial. on the part when you reinforce the front two trainles with te 7cm width card, do you do this on both sides? or just the exterior side? Thanks, i'll post a response once it's finished :D
I scaled the dimensions down to fit my size (I'm 6'2", but I'm slender - only 170 lb.) and so far its turning out fantastic, once I finish it I'll be sure to post a response!
hi,i'm 5'2 but i plan on wearing boots that will make me taller. should i change the measurements to make the mask smaller, or will it look just as good the way you have it here?
hey man i'm from mexico and i made this whit your video last year, can you put subtitles to your video please? what other material i can substitute the polyfilla?
hmmm making a spear i presume would be alot easy than the giant sword?? xxD even tho the sword is freakin sweet! i love when you can swing down so it cuts the monster down the middle!!
I watched both part 1 and two of your how to build a p-head, tomorrow I'm starting with the helmet part. Just there is something I don't get yet....what's polyfilla for? I'd understand that better If I talked english and knew what it is lol..... But I understand that it is somekind of Spackling paste?
@Dax79 could you please make a video on how to make the version from the game? it would be wonderful, I'm trying to mae it for halloween and you seem to know what you are doing :D and I personally love this one ^. so if you have spre time that would be awesome.
I'm a little confused. Are the front triangles and the back-pieces connected together at all; or is it just the helmet inside holding it all together?
this is GREAT. i'm trying to look for a substitute way of seeing outside from the mask, since the mesh is actually pretty see-through if you stand in bright light. anyway, the measurements help a lot =]
For all these things, there's an American equivalent. MultiGrip is a shelf liner, you can pick some up at walmart, I used black Easy Liner, it's not in the hardware section, try looking around the kitchen ware, it comes in rolls. For polyfilla, any kind of waterproof bathroom caulk will work, I use Polyseamseal tub and tile adhesive bathroom caulk, you can pick it up at Lowes, it's good stuff.
Hey Dax i posted a response video basically took your idea and upped it a bit to some more detail, weighs a bit more than yours i think ^^ Take a look. Thank you very much. :)
Is it 70 cm for the triangle and then cut out 10 cm for the rounded part at the bottom?? And if so, how thick from the bottom should the rounded part be?
Can you add some more exact measurements in terms of how much of everything you need? 'plastic pipe' isn't as descriptive as I'd like; do I need half-inch pvc, what length do I need, etc.
Oh boy. I'm attempting this to take along to Otakon or Anime Evolution this year.
My question is..if I wanted to make it smaller (since I'm short and a girl) what would I change? The length of the pieces or the width of the angles? I have to attempt to get this on a plane (which I severely doubt will happen). So it can't be quite at out there..that and I'm clumsy. >> Walls and I do not get along well.
For that mess thing i went to my local modle shop and got some wire mess stuff they only had it in grey silver but i sprade it black and dobled the layers of it its was £5 for meter sq
Can always have it chunky. Some thin rope weaved through in a 'grid' fashion and painted black or rust doesn't look to bad I've noticed. I'm going to be using an old 'mesh' pencil case but that was pure luck... Fly screen?
I went for fly screen net actually. It isn't optimal, and I have 2 inner layers of it, to make it more dense, except the layer on the outside. But it does the trick I guess.
Depends on what area you live in, I guess. The NW has the Haggen stores which all carry the Multi-grip, but I would check any major grocery chain in your area. Hope that helps some.
Love this costume! Your video was a big help and wanted to say thanks for posting.
I built my son one and finally got it done. It was a real pain getting the angles down but it came out good I think in the end.
Just now having a hard time with the cloth for bottom. It is to thin and having hard time walking. It keeps going between his feet when he steps. May put something to stiffen it up some. Any ideas to go about the bottom?
Gig540 ~ im going to try using a canvass cloth... check that out too , should be available at most craft or artsy store. Cheers. Thanks to Dax as well
toyokanin - Hey thanks for the suggestion. I actually have completed the whole costume now. I bought 3 yards of a colored fabric. And cut and sewed it together with one of those $15.00 hand sewing machines lol. I had to iron on a fabric underneath to thicken it up so it wouldn't ride between legs but it came out pretty good. I know one thing I will never sew again lol. Not for me
YO Dax Man, Leigh, im almost done with me rendition of the famous pyramid head. I'd like to thank you again with your vid that i was extra inspired and guided as i made mine...
i'm trying this stuff from Sears called vinyl spackling in a red tube . it looks identical to polyfilla but i havent tried it yet but i'll let you know.
polyfilla is a similar deviation from spackling paste which can be found in most hardware stores. just make sure the stuff can be sanded and is flexible and paintable & it should be ok.
Tell me how that works out for you. Im going to be using that to seal it up I know that but Tell me how it works for the actuall sanding and filling proccess.
well im far from using calk but im going to use it on pyramid heads spear that im making and ill tell you how that goes besides its both cardboard it should work
Ok one question: I read earlier comments and you said that for the back panels you did a soft cut slightly off center to make the concave look. Does it matter at all if it's off center? I can't tell how off center it is...
BTW, great vid! I'm gonna be Pyramid Head while my girlfriend's going to be a Nurse.

Depends on what area you live in, I guess. The NW has the Haggen stores which all carry the Multi-grip, but I would check any major grocery chain in your area. Hope that helps some.

Some grocery store meat/deli departments use it to line their display cases. That's where I got mine. :)

Love this costume! Your video was a big help and wanted to say thanks for posting.
I built my son one and finally got it done. It was a real pain getting the angles down but it came out good I think in the end.
Just now having a hard time with the cloth for bottom. It is to thin and having hard time walking. It keeps going between his feet when he steps. May put something to stiffen it up some. Any ideas to go about the bottom?

toyokanin - Hey thanks for the suggestion. I actually have completed the whole costume now. I bought 3 yards of a colored fabric. And cut and sewed it together with one of those $15.00 hand sewing machines lol. I had to iron on a fabric underneath to thicken it up so it wouldn't ride between legs but it came out pretty good. I know one thing I will never sew again lol. Not for me

i'm trying this stuff from Sears called vinyl spackling in a red tube . it looks identical to polyfilla but i havent tried it yet but i'll let you know.
polyfilla is a similar deviation from spackling paste which can be found in most hardware stores. just make sure the stuff can be sanded and is flexible and paintable & it should be ok.

I don;'t get this, 70 cm, plus 10 for rounding. So is it just 70 cm or 80 cm?
KyoshiroOfShiga 2 years ago
i think he means that it's total of 80 from edge to edge.
the line should be straight for 70cm. after that, you start the curve which will be 10cm by itself.

Ok one question: I read earlier comments and you said that for the back panels you did a soft cut slightly off center to make the concave look. Does it matter at all if it's off center? I can't tell how off center it is...
BTW, great vid! I'm gonna be Pyramid Head while my girlfriend's going to be a Nurse.
