how to make pokeballs tutorial
Published:By

54K ViewsThis is how I make my pokeballs for my cosplay 
. I hope it will help someone.
Mine aren't 100% accurate, bu since I'm not very good at painting I can be proud of myself...
And I used styrofoam balls to do this. Maybe I didn't wrote this but it is the base of a pokeball....
I don't know what more to say, if you have any questions I will try to awnser the best I can. Pokeballs are very easy to do but very long to finish....
EDIT: Wow thanks for all those views! i'm happy to see that my tutorial is useful
And those are examples of what you might get when you are finished! (those pokeballs aren't mine, they belong to their respective owners):

You used a Heal Ball! It hasn't been forgotten! x33
Actually, I do not use heal balls in the pokemon games (honestly, I found them to be quite useless), but since it looks very pretty (and has lovely colors), I've decided to make one.
I personally loved the Luxury Ball. I mean, who doesn't like black?
Just wanted to say thanks for this tutorial! I made some pokéballs for a cosplay with it. They turned out great!
You are welcome! I've seen your pokéballs in your gallery, and they look very nice. Would you mind if I added them to the description of the tutorial?
Go right ahead! ^_^
what's the poke balls made of? :3
It's a styrofoam ball
You can easily find them at dollar stores or craft stores for a cheap price, generally uner 1$.

I'm in a good lead XD thanks for replying anyway...
You're welcome
styro I bet? XD
I love you,this tutorial is awesome!
You are welcome
they look nicer when u paint tennis balls. just some thought
That is very plausible since I haven't tried tennis balls yet. Plus I was in a rush when I first made these so I didn't took the time to put a lot of modpodge coats ^^"
you should try them sometime then! sadly they dont bounce.
another thing i like doing is getting the large plastic bouncy balls and painting those as giant pokeballs with acrylic paint. they r still bouncy!(USE TAPE TO MAKE THE EDGES NICE!)

Yes, I'll try to use that sometime if I do another pokemon cosplay. I've been getting this suggestion several times, so I guess that it works quite well!
Ilike the idea of using bouncy balls too.

what is the yogurt for?
You just use the plastic pot that contains the yogurt. If I remember well, I used it either to use it as a stand for the pokeballs (it would have the same use as the egg box) or to pour modpodge in it.
I'm sorry if I did not answer your question clearly, it has been more than a year since I made this tutorial so I don't remember well ^^''
