- In this video I will explain how to make Elf Ears out of Liquid Latex so that you can make latex elf ears. This is a very simple way to create a beautiful elf ear that will fit your or your actor's ears really nice.
Some basic materials you will need is:
LIQUID LATEX to coat the plaster elf ear to make your beautiful elf ear.
You can purchase Liquid Latex on Amazon or at costume stores.
CRAFT PAINT most hobby stores or even most Walmart and Target stores carry craft paints.
WOODEN STICK or popsicle stick. This is used to remove your latex ears from the plaster positive mold. Using metal instruments can scratch or wreck your plaster molds.
BABY POWDER or TRANSLUCENT POWDER or even CORN STARCH to powder over the latex so it isn't sticky. All types of Latex is sticky when dry and if it stick to itself, it may not come apart. Use the type of powder you feel comfortable using.
Thank you for making this series! It's much appreciated and very helpful. I learned a ton from you

Hi, You have such a wonderful way about you. The way you explained everything without rushing through it was soo helpful. THANK YOU ! LOVE you channel
Thank you so much :)
thank you for the content and good knowledge. Hello from Russia
You are very welcome. :)
Great tutorial...do you haver any vídeo of the same technique to make then on silicone?
Yes, I have a whole series on this channel on how to do advanced elf ears out of silicone. Similar to how they made the Lord of the rings ears.
Thank you so much for the video! I tried following your video step by step and i dunno why, i always fail at the end with taking the ear off the cast. It just crumbles or loses form. I tried around 8 layers so far but its not working. I even then tried the exact same ingredients you have in the video. Any ideas why its not working? :(
Hi ! Thanks for your videos. Is your craft paint acrylics ?
Love from France 🤗
Yes. Regular water based craft paint.
Yes. Just craft paint you can buy at any store.
I love your videos! Is there any reason to use latex instead of silicone? Im trying to make comically long ears and worry about the weight.
Thank you!
Latex is much lighter than silicone. Many because latex is hollow it’s just a skin that’s firm enough to hold up. If you make large ears out of silicone they will be very heavy on your ears and may droop from the weight of the silicone because silicone is solid and not hollow. Just to let you know the difference. Thanks for watching.
