Hey the 3rd step is definitely useful, thanks! When I took a theater makeup class back in college one of our projects was "fantasy character". A girl did the elf queen Titania from Midsummer night's dream, and made long ears for the character. I couldn't figure out how/where she'd gotten them at the time but now I have the right idea!! 😃

i have one in addition to this video, in case anyone wants to have another option! I used two paperclips, paper, toilet paper and a gluestick and some tape! i started by bending the paperclips ends,so it gives a shape similar to an ear(just bend out the ends a little, you can also adjust it by trying to fit it on your ear) it is supposed to go completely around your ear, so it holds it in place. also, ive used paperclips with little knobs at the ends, so it doesnt hurt or scratch when i wear them, you could also just put a little bit of hot glue or clay at the ends i guess. then i drew the shape of the ears on the paper, make sure that the non-triangle end(where its gonna go onto your ear) is shaped like the paperclip, since youre gonna be connecting these two! also, you can make them as large or small as you want, you can even make other shapes by just drawing them on the paper. then, youre gonna take the tape (or hot glue, doesnt rly matter) and just tape the paper onto the paperclip. make sure it is well connected,you can also use a couple of layers of the tape for that. Then, I just took my gluestick and glued a lot of toilet paper onto the ears, making little sausages and then smoothing them out. This part can take a little long, depending on how realistic youre trying to make your ears. Also, just try to experiment a bit, youll find the hang of it quickly, even if it sounds confusing at first. To top it off, I colored the ears to make them match my skintone, and you can also use darker shades to accentuate where the shadows are supposed to be. youll have two elve/fairy ears which you can take on and off and they should hold really well, even when running! :)

So for doing the 3rd DIY, I’ve run into a small issue. Applying the latex is pretty hard and awfully sticky, so once I’ve gotten it all applied how do I make sure it doesn’t completely stick to the clay? I’m using porcelain clay and I’m letting it dry so then I can apply the liquid latex after and it won’t be as hard to peel off/apply. Will this work? Also, what kind of powder are you using when you put it on the ear before you peel off the latex?
@summer.stockwell5 жыл бұрын
Del so the clay I used was just air dry from the dollar store. Any clay should work. Just make sure it’s hard /set. Latex will peel off any smooth surface. Apply the latex over the front, sides and back. You need atleast 5 coats! You can wait for each to dry or use the blow drier in between. I was using a Mac foundation powder , studio fix. But honestly any powder will work even if you have baby powder. How that helps ?
