Evangelion Test Type Unit 01, from Evangelion 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance

I made this prop as a part of Team F@P to compete in the WCS Australia preselection finals, where we won 1st place and received the name of Team Australia 2012 to compete in Nagoya, Japan!!!!!

Our performance taken by *SorceressMooNBlaDeR can be seen here: [link]

Finished products:


About the EVA
The entire structure is built out of a type of foam called "EVA skins" :XD:
What better thing to build an EVA from than something called
EVA skin?!?
Pretty much it is like building a foam helmet, except much (MUCH) bigger.
The inside of the head is re-inforced by plastic triangles and cardboard triangles (whatever i could spare), to prevent the shape from collapsing in on itself.

The entire thing is built onto two giant sheets of PVC plastic which barely fit in my car.
Then mounted onto a wooden frame and I deisgned with *Tsubaki-chan

The head is separated at the jaw into two parts. So hinges could be installed onto the wooden frames of each part to make the mouth open and close as we pleased.

Finally, the eyes are fitted with remote controlled outdoor lamps which we found at Jaycars, so that they will light up and make a more awesome impact on stage.

The final height of the thing was about 3metres. It was 1.5 metres wide.
We had to call a removalist truck to get everything to the event haha!

Hope you enjoy~!
More photos coming!
