[Vacuum Forming Application] Role-playing is super easy, and you'll be the center of attention!


Learn to make your own cosplay costumes and props in simple steps! Become a professional cosplayer and the center of attention! The renowned Chicago prop studio "The Egg Sisters" designed an exaggerated teeth prop and released a complete tutorial video.



Founded by two sisters from Chicago, "The Egg Sisters" studio is passionate about creating lifelike armor, costumes, and props. They have won numerous performance awards in many competitions and have been heavily promoted and featured by Cosplay Culture Magazine and Bizzard Entertainment!



Creating cosplay props or life-size models requires not only essential sculpting and painting skills but also a slow and meticulous work process. This time, they combined vacuum forming technology, allowing them to quickly design a realistic monster tooth in just a few simple steps. Here's the complete process:



First, mix dental alginate with water, pour it onto a dental tray, and bite down directly to create a mold tailored to your teeth. Then, pour plaster into the mold to fill it, and wait for the plaster to completely solidify. The dental model is now complete!



To make the bottom of the model flatter for subsequent processing, plaster can be injected into the bottom of the tooth model. Then, the tooth model is placed in the FormBox vacuum forming machine and vacuum-formed with a transparent injection molding material sheet . The pressure only takes 3 seconds! After demolding, the material sheet is cut according to the shape of the tooth, and the base of the prop tooth is formed.


(The props are mainly made of FormBox transparent injection-molded material sheets , which have passed food safety certification and can be safely in contact with the human body and mouth for up to 8 hours.)


Next, use clay to create your desired shape on the plaster model. Make a mold using the same steps, then pour in dental resin to create the teeth on the prop. Finally, use paint and alcohol to color and polish the prop.



The customized teeth fit perfectly and are comfortable to wear. Paired with exaggerated makeup and hair, the effect is flamboyant yet realistic, with a touch of eeriness and horror. You'll definitely be the center of attention at a costume party!
