how big are we talking here? I've seen people make horns out of latex, course they were on the small/medium end of the spectrum...about 5 inches long, i've made a set of sluch horns about 3 inches long. I have seen a set of fiberglass horns that were about 8 inches long and 3 or 4 inches at the base. they were secured to the head by a plastic plate made by vacuforming over the persons lifecast.
slush horns are probably the easiest to make, sculpt the horns you want on the lifecast, assuming you have one, mold in hydrocal. after thats dry just paint in layers of latex. foam latex horns would be slightly more involved and the plastic/fiberglass ones even harder.
let us know what you want and i'm sure someone will be able to help more
later

Woochie makes some nice slush cast latex prosthetic pieces - nice for being mass produced. Many costume shops ans novelty stores carry at least some of their line and can order anything they make if you don't need it tomorrow.I know they make a decent pair of horn stubs, but not sure if they carry longer horns. Scarecrow makes a good sized set of horns that aren't very expensive, but I haven't seen them in person (their fang tooth caps are very good, though). I prefer to see any costume or make up items in person before purchasing them, PR photos can be deceiving. Many places carry both of these manufacturer's products, Nightmare Factory is only one such place. ------------------

--I got a pair of VERY inexpensive horns from a costume shop. I believe they were Cinema Secrets horns. They looked like they had been sittin in that shop since the beginning of time, but, for 99 cents, who can turn down such an artifact. They were made of red latex.
--i just painted them over with acrylic paints, stuck em on with some spirit gum, and, had to use some morticians wax around the base, due to the thickness of the edges. No pic though, sorry. any ways, the horns are very easy to apply, and look alright for bein so cheap + old. good luck.
p.s. Be carefull if you have long chin scruff. you may end up lookin like a reject goat boy. i was goin for the demon look(dark brown around eyes) even threw on a latex stipple, for some texture. | |
