That was really fascinating! How often do you think y'all will be releasing more videos like this?!

I'm tempted to try making my own helmet! :D

...Though you probably just made it look really easy and I'd suck at it lol

That was really interesting, I look forward to watching more of these.

I demand more. NOW!!! :lol Buenos and I have talked about this a couple times over the months so he knows I've been waiting for this, though he's probably forgotten about me by now. :lol

It all just takes time. You can't really be good right off the bat and your sculpt is pretty much done when you're finally satisfied with it. Took me a year to get one of my sculpts to look exactly how I wanted it to look. Learning is one of the best parts of the process!

Please share our channel around and get all of your friends to subscribe! The more subscribers we have, the more chances we have of making more Toku Action Shorts and tutorials!

Nah, I've seen you around every now and then! You're one of the only few people who cares about my work. lol

I don't think anyone on here is going to watch any of the Toku I make unless it says "Kamen Rider" on it. :P

As a cosplayer, this definitely will be helpful

Thanks for actually rememvbering me. As for others not watching...this may be true. But I'm sure that there are more than you think that've been dying for these videos. Not everyone is as vocal as I am y'know. XD My friend just joined and he's already saved the link to this page...why, I hav no clue. :lol

I have watched some of your stuff. It's just that you do things that I don't know enough about to comment on :lol
My bad~

It's still pretty cool to do this, though~

It was a cool video. Nice work on it, would have liked to see how to smooth the helmet even more and get the little bumps out and painting and fitting it over your head.

Me an my boys are actually working on multiple projects so it difficult to get all the time in to finalize all the details of the sculpt. Also, there pretty much ISN'T a finish point. Your sculpt is finished when you decide that it is. It takes a lot of practice, so the sooner you buy your clay and start sculpting, the sooner you can will get better and be more satisfied with what you create.

I wanted to do something that gives back to the Toku fandom. The fandom right now seems to only consists of collectors and not enough creators. When someone says that they're trying to create a Toku, they usually just end up with an idea on paper and that's it. They don't know where to go from there. This series hopes to give people the resources and knowledge they need to bring their projects to fruition.

Actually, the point of the series is not cosplay. It's to be able to make suits that are usable for Tokusatsu action sequences. If these techniques were used for cosplay, your suit would most likely fall apart since cosplay designs don't really work with action scenes so well.

Besides, we really want to see the fandom use its imagination rather than just cosplay as something that's already been done.

Again, I just felt that this is what the fandom needs right now since it tends to lack in the resources to make anything original. There WILL always be another Rider, Sentai, Ultraman, and Garo each year and there's not much news beyond that. If the fandom was able to show what it can create, perhaps it would make things a bit more lively and people could anticipate more out of Toku.
