Elf Ears - Dark Elves

In the dangerous tunnels of your home beneath ground, staying alive requires keeping all your senses on high alert. Your Dark Elf Ears are trained to pick up even the faintest of sounds in the darkness, your hands ready with your weapon should you need to defend yourself from some beast or being.

So, when you hear the silvery tongue call out to you, “Hello, friend,” you are not so quick to let down your guard. While the other dark elf approaching you is an old acquaintance, you also heard the crossbow bolt being slid into place--now hidden behind her back.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Dark Elf Ears are a set of latex-prosthetic ears molded in a pointed shape, a common sigil of the mythological elf. Round points sweep back along the head, helping this particular pair of elf ears to stand apart from the more classic elven shape. The prosthetic adds 5 cm to the helix of the human ear, and are as smooth and curved as a dark elven ear should be. The ears are modelled to cover and form-fit over the outer ear, allowing for plenty of surface area in which to securely and safely glue the latex to the wearer’s skin.

 The Dark Elf Ears prosthetics are made from thick 100% natural high-quality latex, making it strong and durable, ensuring long life and extended reuse. Application of this prosthetic is easy using Epic Effect Prosthetic Power Glue, Mastix Spirit Gum or other prosthetic adhesive.

 The Package contains instructions in English and French.

 These Dark Elf Ears come in black, but can easily be painted to match the style you desire using Epic Effects Make-Ups.

 Available in Medium or Large.

INSPIRATION

• Dark elves were first mentioned in Norse mythology as the “Dökkálfar” or “Svartálfar” written in the Prose Edda in the 13th century

This bestselling Epic Armoury Setting Spray is an after-treatment product for application over makeup. The spray prolongs the life of makeup and special effects by creating a thin protective coating, preventing smudges and rubbing.

Epic Effect Setting Spray achieves impressive results when used in conjunction with Epic Effect Water-Based Makeup. The spray specifically does the following to any makeup:

• Sets and maintains the appearance of makeup and enhances its durability.
• Makes makeup resistant to cold water.
• Considerably delays the deterioration of makeup on the skin due to perspiration.

The Setting Spray comes in a 50 ml bottle with nozzle-tip pump.

Directions for use:

Apply makeup and prosthetics as normal. Once this is completed, apply a thin and even layer of Setting Spray over the makeup using the nozzle-tip pump. If applying to the face, make sure to close eyes and hold breath during application and a few seconds afterward to refrain from breathing in the spray or getting it into your eyes.

Removal:

Remove the coating on skin with mild soap and warm water.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Be careful when apply Setting Spray around the eyes, as it contains alcohol which dries vulnerable membranes and stings. Keep away from open flames, as this product is highly flammable.

You could guide those guests through your forest, but the Elder's don't know how dangerous they will become.
Best to simply have them feed the roots of the trees and be done with it.

These are handcrafted in our home studio, by the artists of Aradani, with attention to detail and quality. 

Aradani Studios was founded in 2002 by the Bielaczyc siblings, Michael, Paul and Sara. Their original intention was to work at the Tennessee Renaissance Festival as a part-time endeavor, a way for them to spend time together and have some fun selling artwork. So many people were interested in Paul's elven costume, particularly the pointed ears, that the they decided that they would add elf ears to the business. The following weekend, the Bielaczyc's began what Aradani Studios is best known for: hand-painting elf ears to blend in naturally with people's skin tone.

What began as a once a year activity for the brothers expanded in 2003 to include three Renaissance festivals and multiple conventions around the country. During this time, Aradani Studios carried a variety of other brands, but didn't manufacture any of their own products. However, with customers requesting custom prosthetics at every show, they decided it was time to expand.

Starting early in 2005, they began sculpting and producing their own line of prosthetics, by 2007, over 90% of the products they sold were created in house, made and manufactured in Nashville, Tennessee. Customers all over the world have enjoyed Aradani elf ears and masks.

Aside from latex prosthetics and jewelry, Michael and Paul Bielaczyc are acclaimed fantasy artists, winning awards all over the country and working for companies such as Dragonlance and Apex Digest. Their work can be seen in shows across the Southeast and various publications.

As one of the small folk, you often go by unnoticed. Townspeople consider you to be nothing more than a child, and so you easily slip past guards and weave through crowds. Perhaps if someone were to take a more careful look at your appearance--catching your Halfling Ears and the proportions of your adult body--they might know better.

But the silly humans do not pay attention, and that can often be used to your benefit. Pickpocketing is so much easier when no one sees you doing it.

DETAILS
