Making a Custom Optimus Prime Helmet from Transformers
FREE TEMPLATE AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS DESCRIPTION.
Lets mix some nostalgia with creativity and come up with something awesome. In this video I show you how to make an Optimus Prime Helmet from Transformers. I used 24 mm, 10 mm, 4 mm & 2 mm EVA, shear material, contact cement, super glue, Plasti Dip, spray paint and some wax/acrylic paints. You may also need the following tools:heat gun, a Dremel with various bits, wood burner and xacto knife or box cutter.

Dude this is sick as heck, Never grew up with the g1 transformers but the Michael bay version, animated, and prime. Optimus prime will always be one of my favorites. Plz do a phase 1 clone trooper helmet please
Autobots, assemble!!!!! Nice One 👊🏻💥
topengnya smple dan bagus, dan terima kasih sudah memberikan templatenya, agar kita bisa membuat topeng seperti anda.. tetap semangat dan teruslah berbagi kebaikan dengan kreatifitas anda :)
Bro, you should try making a Daft Punk helmet !!
this is incredible im so impress on the work you put into this and it looks so nice i wish i had one
Looks immediately recognizable like Optimus.
Then I guess that means my version is acceptable. Brings back great childhood memories.
Dude !!! That absolutely rocks! Its a great build. My only thing would be the eyes like plastic with blue LEDs or something.
I thought about that too. Light would make it even better. I need to start using some electronics in some builds. Thanks for the suggestions.
YES! YES! YES!! This is awesome! Thank you for bring me back to my childhood. You are the man!
😁👊 these old school builds a quickly becoming my favorite.
👍👍👍👍
Mysterio build of any kind (Far From Home)
I want him to get a fish bowl
Absolutely Amazing video. Make Loki’s Scepter from The Avengers!!
That's sick dude good job!
Cough cough, thanks😄👊
Looks nice man 👊🏻
Oddly enough, I was searching for a cyberpunk Corinthian style helmet and came across this video. I can't like it enough. The nostalgia was high while watching, made me put my copy of the '80s movie on while planning my helmet. I didn't know Ratchet was named for Ratched, that's an interesting piece of trivia.
It's funny how searches can lead you down the rabbit hole. Glad I hit that nostalgia bone. It was definitely my intent on this one. A huge Transformer fan when I was a kid.
my son will disguise him self as optimus prime and I like the detail of the helmet
LOL. Thanks. Added a lot at the end to take up some of the blank space.
Ok, been watching for a while and I gotta make this one. But you GOTTA make Megs too!!! Can't make one without the other. And I'm not good enuff to make it without your help.
😄👊 builds like this take a lot of time to template. If it does good, I most certainly will make another Transformer build
very very good
you know many people do request on props for you to build but i honestly dont care because what you pick is awesome either way.
I'm making as we speak...thank you for all the templates
Cool, cool, cool. Let me know how it goes
I will def send pics....only the third thing I've made ..waiting on primer to dry now. Really appreciate all the templates. Gives me something to play with wish more people did that
I still don't understand how you keep your props so clean without getting glue all over it
Megatron still rules
My Dreams come true thank you, That was Cool mask Optimus Prime you made it sir i love it
You are most certainly welcome. Glad that people are enjoying my old school builds.

I. Cannot. Wait. To try this!!!
It was a lot of templating for this build. Would love to see it when your done. Tag me in your post.

That's a tall order. LOL.
Amazing
Thank you! Cheers!

Cool prop keep up the great work - also do you sell all of you props online? Because I would love to buy one
I do. There is a link to my Etsy store in the description.
@@MuchProps Will you ever do Samus Aran's helmet from Metroid? My dad wants me to make him one
I loved transformers alot to I especially like bumble bee he's Muh fav
Hello there much props. I made one based on your layout. I'll show you once it is done.
Hi any thoughts o f a g1 bumblebee helmet?
This looks pretty close to the rebreather helmets in Mass Effect.
You may be able to make some mods to get there. It's a lot more boxy compared to the Rebreather.
PLS DO SAMUS ARAN'S HELMET PLS Im a boy so i wont even wear it Anyway
Why does the last part need to be there?
@@charlieadams5642 You're right
Man yo really did an awesome job! Can you, make one of bumblebee?
I can add it to my list of builds. The transformer builds are pretty intricate, so they take a while. Can't make any promises but it would be a cool build.
I'm waiting for the same thing....lol
*Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!* I've been looking all over the place for a free template of Optimus Prime Helmet/Head. (Not a fan of online purchases... others may steal your bank account if you have that unlucky day)
Glad to be of help. I like to share the creativity. If this was more than a hobby, like my full time job, I could understand the need to charge. But I don't see the need for that for me anytime in the near future.
Elite Knight Helmet from DARK SOULS! PLEASEEE
Excellent!! very well done congratulations, where can I buy the forms?
Templates are free, link in the description under the video
@@MuchProps link please, in description it is not working
@@franklincaceres1026 are you trying to open it on a phone or tablet?
@@MuchProps Thanks!!!!! I just downloaded, it worked perfect from my phone. Are the pages in A4? How can I make it to my size? or is it a standard? thank you so much
@franklincaceres1026 it is not A4. The paper is 8.5 inches by 11 inches. My head is 24 inches around the forehead. As for how to size it to yours, I have a video on how to scale. kzhead.info/sun/pcqQg5yChauZZHA/bejne.html
niceeeeeee
King, can you make your friend the boomborbi👊
Thanks for the suggestion
@@MuchProps Thanks to you KING 👊
Can you make the infinity gauntlet
MAKE SOMETHING FROM DOCTOR WHO AGAIN please.
Can you make Daileon Warrior Giant's helmet from a Japanese show called Jaspion?
NerveGear from SAO
Can you make DoomSlayer's helmet, pls?
I wish I could make one of these props but I can't, cuz I don't own the tools and don't know where to get materials.
Most of the materials and tools can be bought at superstores like Walmart or Lowe's. I buy most everything I use online in bulk.
you can make the daedric skyrim helmet !! Please!! you can?
Make the love ranger wings please.

VC FAZ A ARMADURA COMPLETA DO OPTMUS PRIME QUIRIA FAZER ELA AQUI NO BRASIL COMO FAZOR PRA TER ESTE PROGETO
Um cosplay de corpo inteiro para um Transformer é uma tarefa difícil. Não sei se realmente tenho tempo ou espaço. Mas eu sei que meu amigo Odin Makes aqui no KZhead fez um traje Gundam cujo padrão provavelmente você poderia modificar.
could you make the gatsu helmet of the anime movie berserk the egg of the conquering king? 😃😃😄😄
The template doesn't work for me, any other ideas?
Are you trying on a phone or tablet?
@@MuchProps I'm utilizing my phone, but I just put it into Google chrome and was able to download the images, but thanks, good to know that you are willing to help on such short notice, especially on a 2 year old video
@@MeltyZombie no problem. For future phone lookups, go to you phone app store and download a PDF reader. A lot of phones don't have pdf readers by default
@@MuchProps I just use a website based PDF to PNG converter, it's real handy, but on another note, if you were to make an Ion cannon, I think it would be rather popular, but you'd probably want to make it wieldable by people, but thanks for the heads up
Also know that you are in no way obligated to do so, it was just a suggestion
awesome build and as i already asked twice for a monster hunter helmet more precisely the legiana one XD (wink. wink) XD i will say kep the good work
I think i can make it but cant colour like dat
You would be amazed at how easy an acrylic wash or two, adds to a pai t job.
With the akrilic wash...do u just paint on and then wipe off? And can u get it at Walmart ?
not sure how to add a photo...but I am almost done with me Prime Helmet
Thanks for the template...its the best template I have found...its even better then the one I bought for $11
@@j7519 glad it was helpful. You can share it with me on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter.
Gonna do Starscream next
Make bamble bee mask sir
Thanks for the continued suggestion of a Bumblebee helmet. Can't make any promises as something that detailed takes time to template out. I am a teacher by day and do builds after work, so my time is very limited. Not saying it can't happen, just saying it could be a while
@@MuchProps thank you so much for replying sir I'll be waiting for your new project.
Could I use cardboard
you could try.
Red hood please
bumblebee mask please sir

Can you make a mess?
Show
?
How much would you charge me to have you make me one?
Sorry, I don't do commission work very often. There is a free template in the description of the video if you want to try and make one for yourself.

Ok. Thanks

Thanks. I really like this build😁👊. Brings back memories of waking up early for Saturday morning cartoons as a kid.
