What are workshops?
Workshops are lectures where the focus is for the participants to create themselves. We support, explain and guide through, but each participant is responsible for making their own craft! In our workshops we've had participants make armor, replica props and weapons, accessories and toys, both from our finished patterns and of their own design!
How does it work?
At our workshops you're presented with a concept (a pattern or project description), materials (usually EVA-foam and hot-glue) and tools (glue-gun, hot air gun, mattress knives and art supplies). After you have decided what you want to make, we walk you through the process and help you with bringing your creation to life!
Do I have to make my own patterns?
For item-specific workshops we always provide one or more patterns for the object in question (for example our helmet-workshop), but we also offer a huge variety of different patterns in case you set your mind on something else! And of course we're there to help if you want to make your own pattern!
Which materials are used?
The most common material for our workshop is EVA-foam. It's a thermoplastic which you can heat up, shape and mold to match your wildest creations. It's the most popular material used by cosplayers all over the world, and it's super easy to use and beginner-friendly.
What can I make?
Anything! We offer workshops for all cosplay-related projects you can imagine. Want to make props and armor? Want to try and make swords and fakeweapons? Or some replica accessories from your favorite tv-show? We got you covered!
Will you help me build?
While we will always help you, come with tips and tricks and walk you through the process, the main building is up to you! But don't worry! All our patterns are very user-friendly and we will help you on every step of the way in making your own creation.
Do I need any prior cosplay experience?
Not at all! Our workshops are designed to suit everyone and we have patterns with various difficulty, ranging from beginner to expert! No matter if you just learned about cosplay or if you're a renowned cosplay champion; we will have the perfect pattern for you!
Can you be any age to join?
Absolutely! We encourage the entire family to join our workshops! More often than not we are joined by parents who got curious watching their children build and wanted to try it themselves. We have pattern that suits everyone (but our youngest participants might needs some help with using the glue gun ;)
Can you tailor a workshop to my event?
Of course! Send us an email and we'll arrange a meeting where we can brain storm! We love customizing and tailoring our workshops to best fit your audience or the participants of your event.
