Building
Make a core.
Use a PVC pipe(diameter 2.6cm).
Cut a PVC pipe.
PVC pipe can be cut with a saw.
But a Pipe cutter is more better.
It can cut quickly and neatly.

This is a video of cutting method of PVC pipe, bending method, jointing method.

I finished cutting.

Make a joint stick.
The length is 25cm.
Cut Iron gardening stick. How to cut is here.
Cut out 1.5mm or 2mm thick EVA foam.
Glue with a Liquid super glue.

Bend a PVC pipe by heat.
I reccomend a Heat gun. It's safety.
If you can't get it , use a Gas toach or a Lighter.
(Be careful about fire. If accidents happens, it's self-responsibility)
Hair dryers can't bend.
When you heat, equip globes always.

EVA foam is soft material.
You can process it easily.

It's sold in Amazon or AliExpress etc.

Introduction video

Use a sharp blade. For example, "Pro Blade".
This is so sharp.

I always use "Running fire box cutter","Blade breaker",Cutting mat.
"Blade breaker" can break the blade easily.

Use Standard art knife or Cushion grip art knife to cut small ornaments etc, too.
Standard art kinfe is for 1.5mm thickness and 3mm thickness.
Cushion grip art knife is for 5mm thickness and 10mm thickness.

Painting
Stand the cylinder form parts with a wood struck big nails.

Begin painting.
At first, paint undercoat on EVA foam.
The effects are as follows.

-Color becomes well.
-It becomes hard to come off.
-Gloss comes out well.
-You can save quantity of the paint.

1.Gesso
This is easy.

【Merit】
-It's usable just to paint with a paint brush.
-Gesso don't contain thinner, then you can use it in the room.
-You can use also Acrylic paint.
-There are several colors one, white black etc.

【Demerit】
-It's easy to come off than Thinned "Bond G17"(one of liqud glue in Japan).
Then, use this for weapons and armors without moving parts.
-The gross is smaller than Thinned "Bond G17"(one of liqud glue in Japan).

3."Bond G17"(one of liqud glue in Japan)
This is dangerous method, it's most likely happening fire.
I wrote about this method as a archive,
However I don't recommend this.
I don't use this method now, I use other method now.
If accedents happens, it's self-responsibility.

【Merit】
-It'st hard to peel off.
-It can use for PVC pipe or plastic sheets.

【Demerit】
-"Bond G17" is japanese commodity. Then you can't get it easily.
-It needs thinner, then you must work outdoors.
-It burns easily.
Don't use fire until drying, because "Bond G17" burns easily. Don' use a Lighter etc until drying.
The parts will be charred in seconds.

I use Thinned "Bond G17"(one of liqud glue in Japan) in this tutorial.
But this method is danger, then I don't recommend.
If accedents happens, it's self-responsibility.
I recommend Gesso or Wood glue thinned with water.

Stand it with a wood struck big nails.

Paint "Bond G17"(one of sticky glue in Japan) thined with lacquer thinner three or four times.
Don't use fire until drying, because "Bond G17" burns easily. Don' use a Lighter etc until drying.
(It will char in seconds.)
Dry it about 2 ~ 6 hours.
