>>4879576 Yeah,
Ive seen that Summoner, and have been stalking her tumblr since she
began the process of making them. The horns were marvelous. they looked
like how I originally planned to make mine, but i eventually changed my
mind when I realized how brittle they came out the first time. (They
couldnt support their own weight since they were so thin)
>>4879729 I remember someone posted some pics of me here in a previous MSPA cosplay thread, so you may have seen it. I was at AX.
I
honestly never tried the way Hayaan described how she did it, nor did
it ever occur to me to have a headband UNDER the wig. (I didnt think it
was even possible). I am 100% going to see if I can do that when I
remake my horns, to make them longer and lighter somehow. Im happy with
how it turned out despite not having the wings ready at the time, but
the headband clearly visible is one of the things I can definitely fix
for next time.
I made my horns out of model magic, and carved out
a styrofoam core on the inside to reduce the weight, which did work,
but perhaps not enough! Next time I remake them, im going to use more
styrofoam on the inside, and less model magic on the outside.
I
broke into one of the old horns I wore here and noticed I used ALOT more
model magic than I should have, which definitely weighed them down, and
ultimately caused them to fall and break. Luckily it was near the end
of the day so it was all good. |
