Make A Paper Mache Mannequin Head
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 май 2024
- I didn't realize that I needed a mannequin head until I took a closer look at the "family photo" of the lion masks on my website. They're held up with canning jars that are sitting on Scotch tape cartons!
So I decided to make a pattern that was easy to put together, so I could make three or four of them really fast. I wanted them to be very plain, so they wouldn't look funny if I used more than one in the same photo.
When I got one done, I realized that it would be a lot of fun to use them for character sculptures too - because most cartoon and animated characters don't have bones. The simple mannequin pattern doesn't have bones, either. I haven't yet tried using it for that purpose, so I hope you'll give me some suggestions for what character I should try first. 😊
You can find the pattern here: www.ultimatepapermache.com/ma...
There are two videos on that page that show you how the pattern goes together. The second video also has some tips on two different ways you can use the pattern for sculpting characters. Have fun! 👩🦳

This would be perfect for cosplayers and wig makers 😍🥰
I'm glad you like it - 😊
Oh wow, i'm a headdress maker and this is absolutely what i need.
Thank you in advance ❤❤❤❤
Your headdresses are beautiful. These mannequins should be helpful while you're making your designs. Have fun with them. 😊
I think it would be neat to transform it to a plant holder…with the center of the head cutout. You could use a plastic nursery container to figure out the diameter/circumference. I am in the middle of making a wire dress form which is formed I will be adding the wire mesh tomorrow. It is for my garden. I will check your video out and possibly take it up a notch and add a head like I described. I will be sure to send you a picture afterwards 😊
I am taking pictures of step by step.
What an interesting idea! My father used the foam mannequins for his 'pothead' planters. He made a mold using the heads, and then created the final pots with concrete. I can't wait to see the sculpture you're making for your garden. 😊
You are so kind to make all your wonderful patterns affordable to all of us. Thank you for the inspiration and the beauty of your heart ❤
What a nice comment. Thanks! 😊
These are great! I collect latex masks and I've been using paper towel rolls and jars to prop them up because the Styrofoam heads supposedly cause the latex to turn brittle or warp. Now, I can just make a bunch of these.
That would be perfect! There seems to be a lot of different ways to use them that I hadn't thought of myself.
What a great idea! I was thinking about this when watching one of your videos. So glad to see you have done this. All I thought of
was those Styrofoam Wig heads. And I can't stand the sound of them. Way to go.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🌹
I'm glad you like them. 😊
Awesome idea .
Great information.
Mike 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks! 😊
Always a top tier source for the amateur sculptor and craft enthusiast. I'm another eternal fan 🦁🐯🐴🐘🦣🐰🐻🐸
What a nice comment - thanks! 😊
@@UltimatePaperMache As a disabled retiree, I thank *you! 🙏
Just found your channel. This is amazing. I was watching someone make a tentacle and the papier mache was rough. I wondered how to make it smooth so it would look more organic. Found your channel and here I am. Brilliant stuff. Subbed in a second.
That's great. Welcome! 😊
sharing this with my craft nerdy friends! it will come in handy for sculpting/forming animal based masks/helmets, thank you so much!
I'm so glad you like it - I hope you have a lot of fun with it. 😊
thanks for the tips! btw, your haircut & style look really nice.
Thanks 😊
that looks a lot like the planar head I had to learn how to draw from in highschool - those are gold for learning/practicing observational drawing skills but the plaster ones are really expensive. I might just make one!
It's funny - that's what my daughter said, too. It wasn't what I was thinking about when I made it, but it could be a good way to learn to draw shadows and shapes. Interesting! :)
These are great❣️I can relate. This pattern will help so many. 👍
I'm glad you think so. 😊
I have so many ideas for this! Plus it's a convenient place for my hats and wigs. Thank you for another amazing pattern.
You're welcome! Have fun with it. 😊
I see that you are getting a "head" on your projects. It is sort of funny because I used a jar to display one of my art projects and I just covered it with a piece of cloth. It is so neat how you come up with so many different projects. With so many different kids of followers I bet you have something for everyone. Great job on the video and the project. Good to see you!!!!!!
A cloth would have been a good idea - I don't know why I didn't think of that, five years ago. 😜
Look forward to seeing you create something using that book (I have it ready to purchase on Kindle if it works out). I'm looking to make paper mache heads for marionettes and have been trying to figure out the best way to get an "armature". This may be it.
Also to get the percantage for reducing increasing that pattern size the formula is (taking any one of the dimensions, only need one, that will give you the percentage for all eg. width) [what you want it to be DIVIDED BY what it is MULTIPLIED BY 100], that will give you a percentage for reducing increasing on a photocopier or in software.
You’re the best. I have the skull pattern. I’ll give this a go as well. Thanks!
Have fun!
You didn't make them disappointed.
I didn't make what?
Great idea! I will definitely be making some of these ❤
Have fun! 😊
This is great. I actually have one in progress for my handwoven items...but it's a sheep's head! I'll post a pic on your site.
That sounds great - I can't wait to see it! 😊
That project came out very nice.
Thanks! 😊
I bought 2 styrofoam mannequin heads at my local dollarstore for $4 each....but I like the lines on yours. looks futuristic.
I like that - futuristic is good. 😊
They are so cool! And you are cool 😊
😊
Awesome!!! Thanks So Much!!!!😮👏👍💯💙😎
You're welcome. Have fun! 😊
You are wonderful ❤ this is great 👌🏻
Thanks. 😊
Oh I tried long ago...then added expanding foam to get my head size...
😊
Keşke dilinizi bilseydim inanın hiç bir şey anlamıyorum 😢ve yapmak da istiyorum, siz ilham veriyorsunuz ama anlamayınca tıkanıp kalıyorum
