This is exactly the type of tutorial I was looking for ! I want to make a Robert Baratheon helmet from Game of Thrones and it uses antlers on a helmet. So my goal is to make a foam helmet and somehow form it around the antlers! Thanks for the help!!!

@ReynoldsamPlus 5 лет назад

Thank you for watching!

@HerefordGal 2 года назад

Very cool! I wish I had started looking for ideas sooner so had time to source the items needed to make these for Halloween...

Hello! What other alternative products do you recommend using instead of the free form air epoxy?

@ReynoldsamPlus 6 лет назад

You could use Free Form Sculpt epoxy as well, but the result will be heavier.

@9ernation 6 лет назад

Fantastic job! That looks amazing! I definitely want to give that a try. Is this type of putty durable? Will it crack easily once it’s cured?

@ReynoldsamPlus 6 лет назад

Free Form AIR is a durable epoxy once fully cured.

Are they very uncomfortable to wear? Like if you were to suddenly turn your head would they hold on well or topple over? I'm planning to make my own for a fair

@brandonluc2714 5 лет назад

Where did you get the 1/4" aluminum wire, I've looked everywhere where I live. Could you send me a link to what you used?

@ReynoldsamPlus 5 лет назад

Can you call your nearest branch? We can get you a local supplier: www.reynoldsam.com/location Thanks for watching!

@smolblueberry8812 6 лет назад

Can I use normal air dry clay to form the antlers on the wire? Would it change anything besides the weight?

@ReynoldsamPlus 6 лет назад

Air dry clay may crack as it dries. Free Form air would not.

@jonnys5889 2 года назад

I made my antlers out of only clay foam and they're very floppy when I walk.. Do you know how I can make it more rigid before I paint it?!

@fyrephase464 6 лет назад

Hey guys, where did you get your wire? I got some 1/4" aluminum armature wire and it looks HUGE compared to what you have there. Is it just me?

@ReynoldsamPlus 6 лет назад

Hi Chris. 1/4" aluminum wire was indeed used. Should you find that 1/4" is too big you can scale down to 3/16".

@kimriley1854 6 лет назад

The free form air I found on amazon says trial size. Is that enough for this project? I'm planning on making more tines than you did.

@ReynoldsamPlus 6 лет назад

Hi Kim, the trial unit contains 1.8 pounds of material - about 1 quart by volume.

@ReynoldsamPlus 6 лет назад

Sorry, about 2 quarts by volume! :)

@SweeneyPotter202 6 лет назад

Can I paint the Free Form AIR epoxy with acrylic or spray paint?

@ReynoldsamPlus 6 лет назад

Yes, but we recommend you use a good quality auto body primer for best adhesion.

@georgemuller308 Год назад

Thanks I’m gonna try this with real antlers!

@unassumingcorvid9639 4 года назад

Is the final result heavy on the head/neck?

@ReynoldsamPlus 4 года назад

Free Form AIR is extremely lightweight

@offstreetsessions1243 6 лет назад

what size is that kit she uses in video?

@ReynoldsamPlus 6 лет назад

This is a trial kit of Free Form AIR: www.reynoldsam.com/product/free-form-air/

@mfoltz3720 4 года назад

I was wanting to make thick ram horns, could I use the tin foil method as a base? Will this epoxy adhere to that?

@ReynoldsamPlus 4 года назад

Yes, epoxy should adhere to the foil.

@mfoltz3720 4 года назад

Reynolds Advanced Materials thank you so much for answering! I would need to use gold black and brown paint. What do you recommend?

@ReynoldsamPlus 4 года назад

Once the epoxy is primed with a suitable sandable primer such as Plasti-Cote Sandable Auto Body Primer, any paint can be used.

@anneramey6993 4 года назад

What lengths is the aluminum wire cut to?

@ReynoldsamPlus 4 года назад

Hi Anne, we don't have exact numbers on this, but the lengths would depend on your particular project.

@tinyduty2795 6 лет назад

what is the length of the horns?

@ReynoldsamPlus 6 лет назад

About 11 inches.

@CrystalSenski 5 лет назад

How much would it cost to make one for me?

@ReynoldsamPlus 5 лет назад

Hi Crystal, we don't make finished pieces, but can help you make your own.

@DanielMorton711131 4 года назад

Why not use real antlers

@justapineapple8464 2 года назад

I was thinking that or just buying made ones but the reason is because how heavy they are like that unless you use something smaller

@DanielMorton711131 2 года назад

@@justapineapple8464 A new ballgame has opened up, now we can use real antlers and put lights on the tips of each antler, a new discovery, hollow out the antler. I have pictures but I cannot apply them here.

@justapineapple8464 2 года назад

@@DanielMorton711131 ok that's cool Also you could just make a video about it
