I want to make a mask out of paper mache, but I also want this mask to have huuuge hornsI plan to build on top of shapes I've made out of tin foil, but will this work? Will the paper mache just stick to the foil? I need to be able to remove the paper mache from the formHelp?
I have used aluminum foil to make an impression of a face in order to build a paper mache maskThis method is very good for getting a form that will be a custom fit for the face the impression it was obtained fromI placed the foil impression onto a Styrofoam head wig supportThe paper and wheat paste will not really adhere to the foil but will be supported by it after a second layer of paper is appliedLet the first two layers dry before applying more so that the paper and water weigh does not distort the aluminum formYou will have to be gentle in applying the paper mache as to not distort the foil impressionThe foil can be easily removed from the paper once everything is completely dryOr you can leave the foil in place applying one layer of paper on the inside of the mask over the foil.
