[link] ------------------ If you're interested in buying my products, please email me at info@neraluna.com or visit my website: www.neraluna.com Thank you! ---- Since 2003 this is... my official job!! Yes, this is one of the things I do for living: latex prosthetics for LARP (live action role play), Halloween, fantasy themed parties, etc. (I put it into 'textiles>costumes' for I couldn't find any better category!) I'm quite proud of my latex stuff because I work it in a long process, in order to achieve a high quality item, much better that most of those you can generally find around. The design of the model is by me: I sculpted the original form with clay, and get the first, 2-pieces mould out of it. After having the first mould, you must cast the first latex prototype, finish it, and from that you get the moulds that are to be used in the everyday work. From the moulds, you get a not-refined product, but this is what you can often see in shops. The surface of the "skin" is rough and has some little round "dot" on it (the older the mould is, the worse surface you get). I "level" the surface piece by piece, and then give it another layer of latex, which makes the surface perfectly smooth. Adding talcum powder gives a silky touch, and protects the latex too. My elf ears are standard sized, but the fit most ears easily, even without glue (if you don't run around, that is!), and because they don't cover the ear hole, you can still perfectly listen to everything. The colour shade can be tuned to one's skin with common make-up. To make them look better and to avoid the risk of loosing the ears, they can be glued to the real skin with spirit glue, or even with some liquid latex (it dries with air, and is simple to use, but you can't take it off anyway but tearing it off your skin, so I don't suggest it, even if I used it lots of times ^^) Edit: I've been featured by |

Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the person, we will know how to be grateful.

It's a weird business, I know, but it's a lot of fun to do, so even if I'm not rich, I like it because it makes my life a lot pleasant.
