Hey, y'all! I'm going to start experimenting with worbla for armor and accessories. Do you have any tips or tricks for me?

It's super easy to work with and so far I'm really liking the results.

You will have to show some of your progress and projects!! biggrin Im a worbla fanatic, and I have to use the stuff with nearly all my costumes now. lol Do you use the sandwich technique or just a single layer with a foam core?

It depends on the project and the look I want. I've been working with both systems. Which do you prefer?

I prefer sandwich technique but for some stuff I've been just doing a single layer with foam. Rose's armour is all done in single layer. That and its more budget friendly. You? Do you have a preference or do you like both?

I also tend to prefer sandwich technique. It holds up better and is easier to do detail work, but budget is usually an issue for me. As such, I tend to use single layer, or a mix of both. I'll also do quite a bit of composite work, where I incorporate the worbla with a mix of other products (aka, what can I get cheap and make work).

Yeah. It's definitely a lot easier to do finer detail work but $$$ is important too. It's nice to mix the different techniques together because it gives the overall completed work a more wide range of detailing and interesting final look. smile

It also forces you to be more creative and think outside the box. It's a great way to develop new techniques.
