I'm delighted to finally be able to offer the first in a range of Unicorn horns for customising model horses and other fantastical creatures!
These models are 3D printed by me (not cast) using a resin recipe of my own that makes them both tough yet just flexible enough to stand up to the occasional bump. Tougher than cast resin, I have chosen to offer 3D printed horns for their strength and their lack of casting artifacts - no seams! They are not unbreakable (not suitable for use on toys!), but are certainly tough enough to be used on resin and plastic collectible models for the purposes of collecting, customising and showing. Note that the smallest horns are tough relative to their size but will still break if flexed too much, even the toughest resin is vulnerable in such a fine shape so please take extra care with the smaller size horns..
Each horn size has been individually adjusted for the best structural strength and the nicest aesthetic (ie some have more turns than others and some are proportionally thicker or thinner than others), they are NOT simply copied and scaled down versions of each other. With over 20 years' experience with 3D CAD modelling and over 5 years 3D printing, my prints are very high quality. In natural light the naked eye cannot see any printing artifacts (as with all 3D printed models, printing evidence is visible under magnification in bright light). With zero prepping required, once primed and painted you should not see any evidence of 3D printing at all! Clear horns are given at least two coats of high gloss UV protective sealer, frosted horns at least two coats of matte sealer for the same high quality finish. Grey horns are given a UV protective coat of matte sealer, ready to be primed and painted.
Due to their small size and pointed shape, these horns should not be given to or used by children. Unicorn horns are not toys.

P&P |
Sadly there is no way for my website to automatically calculate the postage on multiple items, so please use the PayPal drop down menus as follows: On the largest item (the one with the highest postage charge), select "PPD to [your location]" and add to cart, then on all extra items select "Additional [item]" and add to cart until you have the number you want. You only pay shipping on the largest item you order, all additional items ship free even if you order a mixture of models and tools.
Sadly I am no longer able to refund overpaid postage, if you would prefer an invoice sent to you with exact shipping that's no problem - just drop me a line. |
Tracking |
Tracking on international parcels is quite tricky to arrange at the moment due to the UK COVID-19 lockdown so I'm not able to offer it as standard on all smaller orders. If your order is over £200 it will be automatically upgraded to Tracked shipping. If you live in Russia or other tricky shipping areas, please contact me to order. UK orders are sent via the Royal Mail 2nd Class Signed for, or 1st Class (not signed) for recent return customers.

Colour galleries:
Clear Glossy
Printed using a resin mix that produces a gorgeous transparent green aqua colour with a very subtle purple flip in some lights, these horns are finished with a gloss sealer to give a watery clear look. Some even have microscopic (almost invisible) bubbles swirling up through them! They glow under UV light too, so the special effects potential for these is huge!
The unicorn model shown for scale is a TT Pony Mare (smaller than a standard micro mini). Whilst I've suggested which horns would work for which scale of model, my opinion may vary from yours, so please check the measurements listed above before ordering to ensure you get what you'd like. I've done my best to represent these unicorn horns accurately, but all measurements are approximate and as I mix my resin in small batches, colour shades and intensities may vary slightly.

Frosted Ice
Printed using the same resin mix as the clear glossy unicorn horns, these horns have been given a matte finish, resulting in a horn that looks like frost covered ice. Truly magical, these horns can be painted over should you wish. These frosted ice horns also glow under UV light!

Unpainted Grey
These horns are designed to be painted, they are printed in a grey resin mix for maximum durability and sealed with a UV protective sealer. These grey horns do NOT glow under UV light.
