    The favorite materials used for these types of molds are “Repro” or “BJB’s, 1630” however reinforced Ultracal 30 is a lower cost alternative if properly sealed & released.

    Just discovered your channel a few days ago and I absolutely love it! Some really, really helpful stuff here! I´m at the bloody beginnings when it comes to mask making myself! I painted a LOT of masks already but never made one completely myself! Right now Im working on my own sculpt and I am kinda afraid of making a mold of it! 😄

      Thanks for your support & if you hold off on making any molds, stand by. I'll be doing several videos on the whole process from sculpt to molding, casting , painting & hair work . Although I work with advanced materials & techniques, I cherish old school methods & will be introducing those for newbies.

    Excellent work! I always though that the had a full face foam prosthetic, along with his nose bridge, but I guess that was just the pale face paint? I swear I have seen pictures of it too, but am I misremembering something?

    • @jolliwoodstudios
      @jolliwoodstudios 2 місяці тому

      I believe you're thinking of the way they do the Beetlejuice character at Universal Studios! They used a large prosthetic for the upper head and the nose bridge when they still did the stage show, and i believe they still use a more simplified version for meet and greets.

    Hey Steve thanks for the video! Always great to see tips from the masters. I'm in my late 40's and just now getting back into sculpting which I have not done since my days as a wannabe effects artist in the late 80's/early 90s, so it's great to see content like this. Really enjoying your channel!

    Just discovered this channel! Subscribed :) I will just say that I am huge fan of your work! Especially your work with the TV series LOST. By the way, is it true that you used collodion on the character of John Locke to make up the scar? Did you first use colored collodion or a colored make-up underneath? How can you apply collodion to the same place many shooting days on a row? I think I read somewhere that you shouldn't apply collodion to the same spot on the skin several days in a row. I would LOVE a own episode where you maybe can talk about you work on LOST and the about the techniques, products you used and maybe some other stories and details or maybe even some demonstrations :)

    • @make-upmcgyver2812
      @make-upmcgyver2812 7 місяців тому

      Basically i use a small portion powder scoop & add 1 at a time, mixing in between till I get the consistency of pudding. If it has good "hang time" it's perfect. Be careful not to make it too thick or as it starts to set you won't be able to move it around .

      In LA, Ca. there are several places to acquire materials. Plastil gel 25 is carried at Frends & Namies Beauty supply from their FX dept. & Motion Picture FX co. in Burbank is good too. Try to use a local place for clay , Plasters & Ultracal 30 as it is heavy to ship. The Platcil line can also be purchased through Polytek in New Jersey. Reynolds Advance materials has store around the country & a big line of excellent products as well. Find them on line.
