A small tut on how i made my ear wings
List of things youโll need:
Foam sheet/cardboard -> for the base
Cut out the base (i recommend using a real wing as a reference. The height of the base of the wing should be a bit bigger than the height of your ear.
i labelled them left and right, but itโs pretty useless to do that.
I painted the base white because the feathers arenโt opaque, and we could see the purple of the base.
Itโs time to glue the long feathers on! Make sure to position them before gluing, to make sure they look ok. Make sure to to follow those handy guide!
Position the second (round) layer of feathers! I fold over any feather that went over the base on the top, to keep it looking clean.
Now is the time to add the fluffy feathers if you want to!
Time for the back! You can either leave it white or put feathers on the back too.
Almost done! Itโs time to attach them to the headband. If the one you have is made of plastic and is smooth, you should wrap some thread around it and glue it to the headband before the wings, so that the wings wonโt detach
This is the pink thread i used, itโs embroidery thread. I used about the length of my arm for each side, and i then lathered it in hot glue. Not super clean, but it works.
MAKE SURE YOU VERIFY THE PLACEMENT OF THE WINGS BEFORE GLUING THEM SO THEYโRE NOT WONKY!!!!
Next, the actual attaching. You can glue the ears directly onto the headband.
Wow! Your wings are done! Good job :3
Feel free to message me if tou have questions! Iโm not the best at explaining stuff ;-;
