Hello! I see you got 3 measurements with him laying down, but how did you get the rest? Thank you so much
It was a lot of guesswork from other CZcams tutorials that didn't have any measurements. Part of the reason why I made this video is so everyone can make it :)
Making this for my son
Wow
Thank you! Glad you liked it!
Alright this is very cool! But how do I go about making it for a 152 cm 11 yr old?
Do the math yourself. Not that hard.
@@wannabee9836 Alright. Just was lazy lol
My little brother loves crs so I thought to make this for his birthday
Hope you both enjoyed making it!
Hmgood❤
Thank you for detailed costume. Need your help please...
I made the costume all looks good except that the front bonnet rises... The back portion seems to be too heavy :(
The front portion covers the face of my little one 😢
Sorry to hear that. This was my third time making it, the first one didn't work but with the next two, I didn't encounter that issue. Did you use a normal type of cardboard and are the measurements corresponding to your child's?
I am going to make this
Have fun!
If we had a different height tban 122 cm how are we going to adjust the measurements of the other parts of the car?? Because my daughter is 156 cm..
This might not be 100% but measure her in car mode: length (l), height (h) and width(w). For length add 5 cm (to l), for height add approx. 2 cm (to h) and for width add 15 cm (to w). For the roof make slight adjustments accordingly and good luck!
Im making this for a costume tournament. Well... not this exactly since I can't figure out how to convert the sizes and its too complicated for the materials I have
This might not be 100% but measure the 11 yo in car mode: length (l), height (h) and width(w). For length add 5 cm (to l), for height add approx. 2 cm (to h) and for width add 15 cm (to w). For the roof make slight adjustments accordingly and good luck!
Sheesh
Thanks for your Costume. It inspired me. I pimped it in a Spiderman Auto. On my channel you can see a Portrait I did from my son. Thx !
Just how do you wear it?
Put on the backpack-like straps and it adjusts to the person wearing it.
What would be the sizes or dimensions for 10 yr old
I asked the same thing for a 11yr old 152cm

Hola , me puedes facilitar las hojas con las medidas , y gracias !
Hi, the measurements are at the 0:53 seconds mark, you can then take a screenshot. Hope this helps.
How do you know how to make a transformer called bumblebee but send the instructions for making that robot 🤖 ....... us we don't know !!!!!
Hi Masego, I'm not fully sure I understand your comment but I hope you had fun making the costume. I wanted to find instructions on how to make a DIY costume but couldn't find one with clear directions, so I studied many other videos and through trial and error made this costume. This was my third one making.
The song was a good one, what was it?
I don't recall the name but it's one of the free audios available on iMovie.
Itu pakai lem apa y
Hi Agus, I used a hot glue gun.
Template pls
Hi! I don't have a template but you'll get the dimensions at about 1:09 min. mark.
