Medieval Shield Cosplay Tutorial

See how easily you can create awesome looking cosplay armor.

Disclaimer: In this video I use very sharp and very hot tools.
You can, and at some point, will, get cut/burned while crafting.
Please be careful, and craft responsibly.

This video shows how I created my medieval shield, using the cover of an old discarded birdcage.
A reasonably easy build, I would rate it 2/5 in difficulty.

Here is the list of items actually used in this video:

Dark blue cotton canvas (mine was from Spotlight. I bought a square of 1.6x1.6m but could have used a bit less as I cut a fair bit from the bottom in the end)

Some 3mm EVA Foam
Contact Cement
Hot Glue Gun (from Bunnings https://www.bunnings.com.au/ozito-10w...)
