Creating horns for Halloween

Creating Horns for Halloween

I have decided to go at a devil for Halloween and finding this video of Shonagh Scott making her devil horns gave me the inspiration. I will be creating these horns myself to wear for Halloween.


HOW AMAZING 

So I have been out and bought the Poly morph to start making these. 
  • I have started by boiling water and filling a plastic tube with it. 
  • Tipping a reasonable amount of Poly morph into the tub
  • wait for the poly morph to go clear and add some cold water to the tub so you can pick out some poly morph
  • take out a small bit of the poly morph sprout size and roll into a sausage shape
  • then push one end down to flatten it and start to point the other end and start to curve it a bit to create a horn shape
  • get a knife and start to carve lines to create some ridges into the horns
  • wait for it to cool and then start on the other horn get it the exact same as the other 
  • After it has gone hard and cool start to paint the horn into a cream/bone colour
  • get a darker cream colour more yellowy and paint the bottom of the horn and in between the ridges

  • I stuck the horns on with spirit gum and used synthetic wax around them to keep them down and cover any gaps.
  • I used red cream paint around the bottom and added blood to give the effect the horns are coming out of my head.
Here is the end results.






























I loved them and was excited to wear them but after wearing them for a while they stated to peel off as they was too heavy. So I thought of making a latex pair using the poly morph horns as a mold.


These where easier to wear and stayed on all night! Had such a good Halloween and everyone commented on how the horns looked.
