What will you make first?

>>	Anonymous Thu Mar 12 15:56:31 2015 No.8177908 >>8177881 I'll definitely experiment with it first but I think I might use it to make Avacyn's moonsliver spear or the light up arrow that madoka uses.

>>	Anonymous Thu Mar 12 16:51:30 2015 No.8177968 >>8177881 I swear that the wonderflex people were working on a clear version of it was well all last year. Worbla beat them to the release.

>>	Anonymous Thu Mar 12 17:03:06 2015 No.8177984 >>8177881 I want to cosplay a character with transparent pieces just so I can use this...

>>	Anonymous Thu Mar 12 17:54:34 2015 No.8178047 >>8177881 Or you could not be bad at props and just use normal clear thermoplastics

>>	Anonymous Thu Mar 12 19:16:45 2015 No.8178190 apparently the worbla company is a little angry because the clear worbla wasn't supposed to be announced until next week.

>>	Anonymous Thu Mar 12 19:32:56 2015 No.8178211 Why people is hyping so much over this? Can't you make this with acrylic sheets as well?

>>	Anonymous Thu Mar 12 21:12:40 2015 No.8178352 >>8178211 Not acrylic, that's too thick. PETG and other plastics though, yes

>>	Anonymous Thu Mar 12 21:33:08 2015 No.8178377 This stuff is legit just rebranded PETG with the price jacked up. I just messed around with some I had laying around and it acts exactly the same.

>>	Anonymous Thu Mar 12 21:53:47 2015 No.8178398 >>8178377 PET and PETG are the same?

>>	Anonymous Thu Mar 12 22:11:53 2015 No.8178412 >>8178398 PETG is a type of PET/Polyethylene terephthalate. G=glycol-modified=Lower forming temp (among other things)

>>	Anonymous Thu Mar 12 22:18:44 2015 No.8178417 >>8178412 Ty, I'll search more :)

>>	Anonymous Thu Mar 12 22:44:37 2015 No.8178446 >>8178417 I found some on Amazon at a decent price. I'm going to order a small sheet to test out.

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 01:26:17 2015 No.8178717 >>8177908 >Avacyn yes please

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 01:27:23 2015 No.8178720 Why does Worbla cost more for the same quantity as Wonderflex now? I could have sworn they were all the same last year.

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 01:31:44 2015 No.8178723 File: 125 KB, 550x820, f5dd9f8a1cb4714f1f55c337607cff94.jpg [View same] [iqdb] [saucenao] [google] could be perfect for this?

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 01:35:00 2015 No.8178726 >>8177908 >Avacyn Pls. Also I'm probably going to use it for Ultimate Madoka wings!

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 01:38:43 2015 No.8178733 >>8178720 Worbla has always been more expensive than wonderflex. Worbla's prince did increase recently though.

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 05:25:51 2015 No.8178916 >>8178720 worbla is an import good, wonderflex is not. That's all.

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 06:00:32 2015 No.8178945 >>8177881 I'm still wondering if this is the first actually clear thermoplastic material out there...I've never seen anything that was as see-through as this stuff. Can anyone clarify?

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 06:02:16 2015 No.8178947 >>8178945 read the fucking thread, there's only like 20 posts cmon

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 06:04:43 2015 No.8178949 >>8178947 How about you hop off my dick? Those thermoplastics are clear when HEATED. Not when fully cooled.

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 06:32:19 2015 No.8178960 >>8178949 did you even bother looking anything up about petg? maybe do that instead of being a little bitch when people don't spoonfeed you things

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 06:52:19 2015 No.8178969 >>8178960 Or you could not assume I've never heard of it because the only time I've ever heard of PETG it wasn't completely see-through.

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 06:56:11 2015 No.8178972 >>8178960 Cunt much? Go choke on a bag of dicks, the half retarded aspie-rage thing just makes you look like a 12 y/o.

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 07:12:17 2015 No.8178982 Looks cool, but I have no idea what it could be used for practically in cosplay that other types of materials couldn't do. It seems like a bitch to make molds with and you can already make transparent stuff with resin.

samefag harder, if you did a ten second google search you'd see that it's pretty common to use petg for helmet visors (which are, in fact, see through). don't get so mad when people call you out on not reading a 20 post thread next time

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 07:42:21 2015 No.8178996 >>8178982 well, worbla is not toxic when sanded (unlike resin).

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 07:47:19 2015 No.8179000 Sorry for the newbie-ness, but then, can you use PETG without a vacuum former? I thought this new worbla was perfect for the visor I need to do since I can only use a heatgun, but if I can use PETG instead it would be much easier

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 08:05:06 2015 No.8179015 >>8179000 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yClQsQjg45g

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 11:12:59 2015 No.8179176 Since we have PETG as a replacement of this material, what would be the replacement of regular Worbla that is not eva foam? Because it does not harden when you heat it as Worbla.

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 11:26:50 2015 No.8179191 >>8178190 Where did you get that from?

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 22:29:22 2015 No.8180139 >>8179191 friends with the right people on facebook. they are not furious or anything, but as far as I understood it was supposed to be a big surprise to be revealed after Leipzig Bookfair and the US page was too fast.

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 22:30:34 2015 No.8180142 >>8179210 No joking aside, this is a future blessing or problem we will have. See through pieces could make costumes even more revealing.

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 22:42:39 2015 No.8180158 >>8180142 >this is a future blessing Not reading about the PETG... this is why overpriced shit like worbla is famous, because of lazy people >make costumes even more revealing I'm thinking some new eevolution crap from jessica

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 13 22:57:26 2015 No.8180175 I hope it'll be used for energy weapons and other light up things.

>>	Dave from /k/ !89dltZnbH2 Sun Mar 15 04:30:01 2015 No.8182208 >>8178996 Yeah, but Resin is harder and thicker, and sanding safely is simply a matter of dust mask, goggles, and proper cleanup.

>>	Anonymous Sun Mar 15 14:17:55 2015 No.8182811 >>8177968 clear wonderflex has been out, they just don't have a good marketing team and don't seem to care since worbla has taken over most of the cosplay scene.
