A custom fitted foam head model can be useful for styling wigs and for patterning custom fitted helmets. Here's how I created a pattern of my head and turned it into a foam mannequin.

Plastic wrap and tape method for whatever mannequin part you need. My torso was filled with spray foam and skinned with paper mache .

I tried this but found my foam head was about 2 inches larger than my real head, due to the foam. So I think I’ll try again and reduce my templates digitally to account for the foam thickness.

Speaking of your dress form, did you also make it? I have an adjustable dress form but it doesn't really replicate my body shape accurately, so I'd love to know how to custom make one
@LindyDesignLab
@LindyDesignLab 6 лет назад
I made the body basically the same way, plastic wrap and tape over my whole torso then cut it off, taped the seam back together and also plugged up the leg and arm openings then made it solid with expanding spray foam around a newspaper core. I put paper mache over that to smooth it out, but that was a bad idea because now it's too hard to stick pins into. If I were to make it again I would do it completely out of floor mat foam like the head. Hope that helps :)

That was chock full of inspiration! And I have almost all that stuff laying around the house! I'm hoping to do this soon. One question: what is that little wooden mushroom doohickey you used to help pre-curve your foam pieces? Any idea where I might get one? That looked super-useful, but I'm not sure how to begin looking for it (other than googling "wooden mushroom," ha.) Thanks for the cool video + the inspiration!
@LindyDesignLab
@LindyDesignLab 4 года назад
It's exactly that, a wooden mushroom from a craft store.

Would this work with filling the initial head thing you made with foam clay? Mby a thin layer at a time

How do you keep the camera above your head 90 degrees perpendicular to the table?
@LindyDesignLab
@LindyDesignLab Год назад
Tripod with the back leg extended further than the two front legs, with a weight or tie down to keep it from falling over, then tilt the tripod head until camera is level to the work surface.

@gutssparkle

Probably not, as they need to be a custom sized and the only way you can get that perfect size is by patterning your own head.

Is that the only kind of cement you can use if so where can you get it from
@LindyDesignLab
@LindyDesignLab 5 лет назад
There are other brands of contact cement that will work. Barge brand might even be better, but the Weldwood is easiest to find at Walmart, home improvements stores etc. and has always worked well for me. Also a link in the description for Amazon.

But you cant heat the wig when this is under it, can you
@LindyDesignLab
@LindyDesignLab Год назад
Sure you can within reason. Blow drier doesn't get nearly as hot as the heat gun used to shape the foam.
