Thread: Evangelion EVA Unit 01 foam build

  1. Evangelion EVA Unit 01 foam build


    Well I finally decided to build one of my favorite mechs of all time, Unit 01 from Neon Genesis Evangelion/Rebuild of Evangelion 1.11 and 2.22

    Unit 01:


    Today I took some pics to do some comparisons from the elongated body of the EVA and my own:






    I'm going to see if I can try and get some work started on the helmet later but no promises.

    Very cool, mecha anime has always been a leading favorite for me in many things. I will watch with great curiosity and hope of seeing how this turns out for you.

    Looking forward to this build due, I'm a huge fan of Evangelion, loved it since it came out. The only thing I'm worried about is the body of the Eva, it really pinches around the waist and shoulders, so I'm hoping you find a way to work around that... Good luck!

  4. Well, I tried my hand at the foam about an hour ago. Much harder to work with then I thought. The hard part was getting a nice clean cut. Got two side of the jaw done. all I could manage. Won't be able to work on it for a week as I to work at a camp till friday.

    Clean cuts are very tricky I found that using a box cutter (Fresh Blade) works best and half a blade (For flipable) can gat about a good sized chest piece done before fliping it.

    Yeah i noticed the whole core area is missing, which shows how much longer the eva's torso is. However i think you can get away with the body being thicker, the rebuild evas aren't anywhere near as skinny as the old series ones were. And unit 02 has more human porportions in the EoE movie. If you can get it all to fit tight to you, it should look ok. Hell if this turns out well i might do a Unit 02

    Well I'm sure you'll get the hang of it!
    P.s. Did you know your name is on the credits for Ghost Recon future soldier. I think it was as thanks for participating or something like that. Unless of course there is someone else out there with the handle A.I. Blue Fox.
