[thedebateroom]

[bruser101]

[chicagoicee]

a good way to distress it is to rub it on rocks

[RobertC595]

My own version... 

[csfreak5150]

[oscarp46]

urs was the best

[KryttyOrgamaProducts]

This was most useful! Thank you!

[SpartanDara117]

we are short of madalorian iron, so beskar gam can be made of cardboard for now.

[TheShaper38]

@SpartanDara117 Choska-kee, gotta get me some armor... =P

[shawnmichalsHBK]

could i substitute cereal boxes with some thickish poster board?

[greenthrash99]

@shawnmichalsHBK i would subsitute the pizza box with the poster board

[Epi2Gib]

This is awesome thank you very much! I am very interested in making my own but I have one question: is there any website I can go to that can give me stencil like cut outs to help me shape the armor while I am still new at this?

[mrslothguy]

[SuperAnime4life]

Kandosi Vode

[abc114able]

@ZhaneAugustine thats... not wierd.... i mean ya i have an obsession with mandalorians and all but srsly

[ZhaneAugustine]

some folks have so taken to the mandalorians they have adopted their culture and language as they're own to a various degree

[bloxant2]

[sigghi21]

awesome

[WolfmanNougat]

That is a really nice technique there!

[ebaymagot]

To be quite honest with you I've seen some buget cardboard armor on TDH. and I thought they were going to look like that. I was pleasantly surprised how well it turn out. Great job

[DarthTaiter79]

Very talented method! Amazing to start with cardboard and end up with what looks like a piece of scarred metal.

[zioomKCK]

Dude! U're GREAT! It looks like real metal part of amor!!! xD And it's maked with pizza :)

[CMxPROD]

i love you ...u make me love pizza boxes..make more make more!!!!!!!!!!! another miniature!

[warwithassault]

sweet

[dannyphantomranger]

This is a good way to have a good set of armor even if you have a low budget. I knew no other way of creating my own set of mando armor. Many told me to go through with cadboard but I had no clue how to start off. Your video showed me the way to have good functional mandalorian armor. I am going this way until money comes in so I can try for stuff that is more sturdy. Thanks for posting this up vod I really appretiate it.

[KEVQUATRO1]

@dannyphantomranger how did your armor come out?

[ARTONY92]

@dannyphantomranger- HAHAHAHAHA!!!! you call cardboard "functional armor? pfft! use real steel not a domino's box and THEN will your armor be functional!

[samwisescalf]

@ARTONY92 it was little caesers

[shelltech83]

Kandosii !

[shelltech83]

Kendosii!!! I've been looking for some way for my armor to look like I've ran through a couple thermal dets...

[Clon2644]

you mean: Kandosii^^

[MultiDarkII]

wow very very vey great mandalorian bracer

[blindbirdboy1]

could you use the box cutter for the distressing?

[KillboxMando24]

sick vod, vor'e!

[JasterRouge987]

thx man this will realy help

[BlooDrUnKMuPet]

Very Nice

[solider117]

[dav112691]

[rolindemiddeljans]

[11chickenlord11]

[beshem]

Hey, very nice!

[ageshero]

Careful man, dont get flagged for the cereal

[dmnitrobyn]

[swcwcc]

[MaidenFanFromTexas]

omfg this is so AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sargentcorpral]

holy shit beast dude

[xadastorm]

Kandosii, ner vod!

I LOVE it! I have cut out some templates in poster board, and am going to make a femme 'gam set. I haven't decided whether or not I want to go the cheap cardboard route, or if I wanna get trash cans and do it that way. I REALLY like the distressing! Now I know how to do it! YAY! : ) I didn't think that the cardboard would look as good either, but that is just awesome!

Ke nu jurkad sha Mando'ade, burc'ya!

Oya!

Mand'ika

[thegamer478]

Have you done a helmet?

[mandomerc]

wen i went to a mandolorian convention in wales thay said u could use the plasic off waste paper bins the cheep gray ones are very good thay said :)

[JonasIsdiaNeravar]

my first set of armor was like this, only I used thicker cardboard, and I didn't paint it

[ambabusa]

i cant believe u didnt use duct tape!!!!!!!! lol jk

nice effect 5/5

[DanielMaher3D]

wow I did not expect that to look as good as it did!

[55vadamee]

Okay that was impressive. Have you ever done a helmet?

[Cloud2400]

Incredible. Simple incredible.

[kamixer]

very good job :D

[xevolve]

I was skeptical when you started with cardboard, but in the end it turned out really cool!

[nickolashorton]

[lonewolf12052]

wow awsome ty for the vid i'll def. use this for when i make my own armor

[greatwhite217]

[RozzyMoko]

[Evelyyn70]

Lol little caesars. i work there

[sporkydorky]

[marvelfan619]

i would actualy rather hand paint it than spray

[BobieFatt]

Thanks

[BobieFatt]

Awesome Vid Do you have one 4 girl armor?

[Macattack640]

For girl armor, I would assume that the upper armor piece that he made would just be more rounded to fit the female form

[LishDFish]

I've seen one set of female armor that just had several more pieces to the breastplate for mobility.

[mrclytn]

OMG why is everything no longer availible! this is one of my favourite youtube vids!

[ObeseClone]

wow ver clever art skills,a ctually looks like a battle hardened peice of aromor

[VilseValle]

That actually looks like a piece of metal

[strakston]

dude thats freakin' awsome!

[Jonweszap]

I need help on the dome can you make a vid on that

[ANONONJEWTUBE]

Wow, that's incredible. I'm jealous of your skill.

[HaloZeroFreakBeanboy]

yeah a whole suit would be cool! i lived the way you did that i wanna try that next time i have some alone time(i have 5 bro/sis)

[Galactatech]

Dude, can you make a video about making an entire suit of Mando'a Armor.

[shinkia1]

im to lazy does anybody know where i can buy some armor. like the realy good armor where it comes with every thing. but if it come to it i will have to make it any way and i will probly will have to make it

[johanjohn2]

[Darkfiend1001]

WOW great job, like the realistic paint chipping

[Slayerof100]

Wow very nice, I was hoping to see the construction of the whole armor tho

[funnyhorrorguy]

my dad made a boba fett costume for me

[cheesewizchocobo]

YOU ARE AMAZING!!!

Thank you for this tutorial! :D

[ThatDudeOz]

That's really good. Great paint job. I'm working with aluminum :P

[williamthrelfall]

Looks really good man

[wachmekillu]

still usefull

[Phantomshock]

looks incredibly realistic, and this is comming from a scale modeller!

[uffm]

nice...but how can i maake a helm?

[sameryoder]

you have the same voice as Robert downy jr., the guy from iron man, anyways, i used this technique and it worked perfectly, i now own 2 sets of armor. thanks!

-regimas

[poochiewoo1]

hahahhahaa u know who this guy sounds like ...??

VINCE VAGHN or w.e. u spell his name

[tdbf2142]

lol, im wanna make lucky charm mando armour!

[somevatonamedsleepy]

i thought it was going to look shitty but it was freakin alsome u should make more armor and a helmet

[VaportrailFilms]

I may just have to use this technique for Halloween this year.

How do you design the pieces to fit around something like a shoulder? I'm thinking of going as Vader's secret apprentice, so I'd have to make those shoulder guards he wears.

[firebush1220]

can you do a vt on how to make and distress a helmet using the cheap way?

[Colm24e]

Yeah spray paint works like way better for the colour....but ummm yeah i made a mistake...DO NOT USE SPRAY PAINT FOR DISTRESSING. It will basically dry....way faster than u think and wont come off with water...even when its still wet...it sorta just streaks on it and stuff...but in the end u have something that looks like...an ink stain...so yeah... that acrylic stuff is wat you need.

[winterwolfmena]

ma can you show how to make a helmet?? maybe another things???

[Colm24e]

Hey could you do more videos with this type of thing? I mean more armor would be great....but a mandalorian helmet would be FANTASTIC....or KOTOR mandalorian armor would be....actually there isnt a word good enough for that....

[darkshadow719]

it will be awesome if u make the whole armour

and the helmet

[greytale]

Shadow and Highlight! :) Beautiful job, it's a great example of taking $0 of cardboard and making what APPEARS to be "metal" that has actually seen action/taken a beating.

Beautiful... I wish ratings were enabled. :)

[djraver94]

omg! your a master this is so good, i went to a starwars convention in wales and the mandalorians there said it would cost loads of money but now ive seen and learnt from you i amazed!!!

[EvilShrinkyDink]

That was simply amazing, I would really love to see what you can do if you take your time and use expensive materials.

[megaman5104]

yea dude i thot this was a fucking joke but as i watched on i saw amazing beauty made with few colors. *tear* i uh left the oven on.

[unknownhitman1]

[potanek]

[MandilorianHero]

He makes a point to be save!

[shitheadfucksickle2]

This is really funny to me..this guy slaps this cardboard piece of armor together with materials he has just laying around, and it looks better than 95 percent of the other cardboard armors i've seen on the net!

Great Job Dude..

[Vexis525]

thats awesome, but that armor piece looked too small...did you use the full size template for it?

i could be completely wrong here about the size

[7D0T]

Completely awesome. This is one of my favorite videos now. PLEASE make more! I'd love to learn how to do the whole set.

[Dracoti]

lol, you could probably build a rocket with cardboard XD, very nice thx

[martinsuper73]

You are very talented and artistic.

[Hellstorm88]

very good man. Im planning on making some for a little cousin of mine now ^^. he'll absolutely love it. please hurry with your other videos!

[distressing]

I'm glad this is use full. If I knew people would be this into it I would have picked a better user name and account.

I have a lightsaber PVC VT that will be out within a week on or so, and I might do the full costume VT soon.

[darksilencer11]
