PRODUCTS I USED:
~ 2mm Thick craft foam
~ Pink Insulation Foam (This also comes in blue at different hardware stores)

~ Hot glue
~ Sand paper (I usually work with 120 grit to 180)
~ Masking Tape
~ Sharpie
~ Worbla Finest Art (Thermoplastic)

Thank you so much for making this tutorial! I saved it for when I decided to make my horns for my Calianna (Critical Role) cosplay this year, and it helped immensely in working out how to build up the scales. One thing I'd add for fellow first-timers: Add a LOT MORE extra foam on the sides than what you are expecting to need. You can always remove it, like she says, but it looks a little tacky if you have to fill in any gaps (ESPECIALLY around the curves of your horns!)

Awesome dragon horns sculpts.

@micheleclauser1025 3 года назад

Started this project this week and so far have a 2 small sets of horns and 1 large set of horns. I have the patterns drawn out and tonight begins the fun on putting them on foam and then getting started cutting and gluing the foam down before I start my first ever project with worbla. Thanks so much for posting this. I do have the earth magnets too but think I will work these large horns into a aviator skull cap pattern I have. That was my ears can stick out for some air and the horns can be working into the aviator cap.

Me only discovering what 'Super Thanks' are right this moment.... I'm so sorry I didn't find this sooner! TYSM so being so kind

@maribelcaguana6380 4 года назад

@NsomniaksDream hey just letting you know, I did try cutting with a scroll saw and it worked like a dream. It only took me 5-10 minutes to cut my horns out. As long as one takes it slow and holds the foam firmly on the table. Clean up was a breeze as well. I thought there would be alot of dust from it like wood, but there wasn't. I hope this helps you for future projects.

@khalidgoldston7002 5 лет назад

I think I might try this out for orgar horn I kinda want them on my forehead rather than my hair but I might just give him a headband because he’s a warrior anyway so it may go with it better

@dracheli2593 2 года назад

This is a really awesome tutorial! I'm wondering though, do you think it turns out this good aswell even if you dont use worbla? What would be a good alternative (paper mache etc), since I dont think we have worbla here ? :D

@fgooof 6 лет назад

Where did you get your installation foam from I need to know

@danievedo 6 лет назад

Can't find this insulation foam in Brazil :(

@goldenmightyena2479 2 года назад

Okay so I haven't seen this comment yet so - if you use insulation foam, please be incredibly careful when sanding it. Wear a mask with a filter (they sell these at the hardware store too) so you don't breathe in the excess polystyrene fibers, as they're a health hazard and can be very dangerous. Once you seal your horns, they should be fine for wearing, but while making them, please please please exercise due caution. If you have questions about specific types of polystyrene, you can find their MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) online, and that answers how safe something is for use. Please be careful and stay safe. Lastly, thanks for the tutorial, it's really neat!

@jorgekeirey4550 5 лет назад

Excuse me but what is the exact knife used in this? I am having trouble finding an exacto knife long enough to cut through the foam

@gizemecetahnal6952 8 месяцев назад

What did you use is plactic foam? Right

@rudymaster2162 3 года назад

How large did you end up making these?

@phoenixcosplays8810 6 лет назад

I can't afford worbla 😭 but your work is amazing

@vanessajensen9156 4 года назад

What if I wanna make ram horn?? like as in, it's curved and very dimentional?

@maribelcaguana6380 4 года назад

This is awesome. I saw this just in time for Halloween. Now my question is would a scroll saw work to cut out the base of the horns? What do you think, have you tried that?

@NsomniaksDream 4 года назад

Oh I'm not sure, I've never got to try a scroll saw myself but it makes sense it would work just fine :)

@maribelcaguana6380 4 года назад

@@NsomniaksDream I will try it myself and I will try to let you know.

@RaulTheVoyager97 23 дня назад

Hey! Quick question! Where did u find the pink insulation foam exactly? I can't find it in any of my local hardware stores 😅 Oh and what are their measurements?

@leassakellerman9843 4 года назад

How big of a sheet did you use for worbla?

@maggysmith9507 5 лет назад

I Actually Am Suprised How Fucking Smart This Is! I May Do This, IDK Yet.

@LoveChuckBeauty 5 лет назад

Could I totally just use masking tape to add texture then spray paint it black? Dont really need scales for my horns ;)

@girlmixi 5 лет назад

Hi, i wanted to buy the rare Earth Magnets but i dont understand the 1+ , 10+ , 25+ or the 50+ above the prices. Can you explane that for me please? Its the first time im buying something like that. I would use it for my fow and toothless and lightfury cosplay

@crabula 5 лет назад

it's safer to cut things in a motion away from you. it's easy for the blade to slip off the thing you're cutting.

@goldfisheve7456 5 лет назад

@zestii3893 6 лет назад

I love this but... Can you do I tutorial of a cheap version of this? Please and Thank-

@backuppixiedust1115 5 лет назад

You could use floral foam and paper mache? It would need a thicker layer of paper mache and glue on the bottom so the magnets don’t just rip right out. It’s not as expensive if you use coupons at the craft stores.

@IcestormTundra 5 лет назад

I did a similar thing with a clay base, cling film, paper mache, spray paint and sealant, then mounted it on a headband with a hot glue gun. Came out at around £20 when all when done =)

@pewtheartist9046 5 лет назад

Use a pool noodle and carve it into a horn... but foam clay on top.. and BOOM cheap version

@Captain_MonsterFart Год назад

But do they wobble when you dance?

@TheChickenRiceBowl 5 лет назад

Does anyone know if there's a way to do this without also using a wig?

@ThatCrazyStranger 5 лет назад

Could you make wings?

@quinnsinclair7028 4 года назад

Would casting horns in resin work or would that end up being too heavy?

@sweetsighs4u 4 года назад

Makes them far to heavy if their solid resin. If they're hollow their not strong enough to hold the magnets in the base. Difficult to cast unless you're an expert (IMHO).

@jerimiahbondy1565 5 лет назад

Can i buy this from you online

@darbysgmail2257 5 лет назад

Hey where can you buy the 1 1/2 foam?? I cant find any online

@NsomniaksDream 5 лет назад

I'm not exactly sure where online but I always buy mine from a Home Depot or RONA or just hardware store :) It's in the insulation area

@MissBanks612 5 лет назад

i realize this video is older so i may not get a response but ... is the head piece under the wig necessary? Wouldnt the magnets be able to stick to each other without it? Or is its purpose to keep them from shifting? If they are as strong as you say, would that even be an issue?

@NsomniaksDream 5 лет назад

The piece underneath is indeed for making them stay in place and taking the weight of the horns. The issue you might run into with not creating that piece is that you're putting all of the hold onto the wig, and since wigs have stretch to fit over the head, there's a good chance the horns will just sag or move. However, for a smaller set of horns you could probably get away without the structural piece underneath :)

@MissBanks612 5 лет назад

you answered!!!! thank you for your response. i understand what you mean about all the weight on the wig. I found 17lb magnets so i may experiment a bit. i dont have worbla so constructing the head piece isnt the easiest for me right now

@elliepapadimas944 5 лет назад

i am doing something really similar (also due to this video), also without worbla. I am using one of those wide stretchy headbands, i'm going to open it up and make the structure with two layers of craft foam and have the magnets in between. and then glue the whole thing back together. To make sure the headband doesn't move i'm going to get wig clips and sew them into the headband so it doesn't slide.

@daisyfisher2542 6 лет назад

what brand of blade do you use? i always find mine to break

@NsomniaksDream 6 лет назад

For this I was using the Stanley brand blade but I did just buy myself an OLFA 20mm knife. The thicker knives tend to hold up better with foam carving. And having a sharpener around really helps extend the blade lives :D

@daisyfisher2542 6 лет назад

NsomniaksDream thanks! i had horns in the making and totally changed my attatchment process once i saw your magnet head band in your makeup vid, so thanks this is awesome!

@saasie7233 3 года назад

Wait so how do you apply the magnets tho??

@NsomniaksDream 3 года назад

They get sandwiched in with the worbla. Worbla adheres to itself so it acts as the adhesive ^_^

@yaretziexists1733 4 года назад

What do I do if I am not going to wear a wig with these on?

@lazycats6362 6 лет назад

Can u sell theese?

@ajax3474 4 года назад

Furry here: Watching this because I'm trying to make a fursuit with detachable horns...would I be able to use this same method through some fur? Just use some stronger magnets or the same strength? If anyone replies, thank you.
