That's a good idea! I usually dip them in naptha and paper towel them in between, but I wouldn't want to risk a good brush just in case D: I can get away with using the same 'disposable' cheap brushes for a few applications then they get gunky and I start fresh.
Aw thank you! Same here, and moulding is something I have found super hard to learn to do. I found some locals who do it professionally who I became friends with who like to help me sometimes (modelmakers), and have made a lot of FX friends online who I can ask for help :) there's also lots of good forums on facebook where you can get feedback on pictures of sculpts or prep for moulds to make sure you're heading in the right direction. The internet makes living in isolated or small places much easier! :)
That time I thought I was awesome using liquid latex for a Chelsea smile. Then I came here! lol Love your videos! Gonna be a big help come Comic con/Halloween!
We sculpted and made the mould and ran the pieces in one day (it was a long day!) and then I painted it and stitched it over another day, then applied it the next night :) Thanks so much!
Did you use cap plastic that is dissolved with alcohol? If so how did you colour the prosthetic with alcohol paints? I really want to try this technique in moulding and painting but I'm not sure if I need acetone based cap plastic?
Amazing job!! I'm a special effects artist too and I'd love to start making prosthetics. Just a quick question... The picture you based this look on; what had happened to the person that had this wound? 😊
Thank you!! It's addictive, but also can be frustrating at first (practice helps so much). We found it on the figure 1. app which said they had a total knee replacement which got really badly infected (MRSA) so they had to take out the knee replacement parts and put on a skin graft, because the skin was dying.
I get most of my silicones and deadeners from Barnes, the shellite from Bunnings, and the Mouldlife silicone pigments from Scotty's Makeup and Beauty. But I'm going to try some smooth on products soon - silpoxy + novocs + oil paints as another way of painting silicone. I have a local smooth on supplier in Perth (Kirkside products) but the main smooth on supplier in Aus is in Adelaide - Rowe Trading. I know a lot of people also like using the silicone caulk you can get from Bunnings + shellite + oil paints for colour.
I really hope that someone around here can explain something to me. I am not a native speaker so it makes it difficult for me to understand everything I hear. Briefly and bluntly: She is using pigmented silicone to paint the wound, isn't she? Because that is what gives it that glossy effect, as I understand it (or what gives it that effect is the Deadener?). The next question would be: what is Naphta for and how much was it used for? The only thing I understood about this one is that it is toxic and it is recommended to wear a respirator :/ I thank you in advance for your help, you don't know how difficult it is to find information l ike this in my language :(
beautifully gruesome!!!
Thanks Angie! .

this is horrifyingly gruesome. i love it!
Beautiful! I always put my brushes on a plate with pure naphtha in between painting to keep them clean so I didn't have to throw them away :)
That's a good idea! I usually dip them in naptha and paper towel them in between, but I wouldn't want to risk a good brush just in case D: I can get away with using the same 'disposable' cheap brushes for a few applications then they get gunky and I start fresh.

Haha I started with latex too, easy beginner material and cheap and accessible! Thanks Mark, glad you like them!
love it! keep up the great work!
Thanks Alex!
Did you do all this in one sitting? Beautiful piece you are so talented!
We sculpted and made the mould and ran the pieces in one day (it was a long day!) and then I painted it and stitched it over another day, then applied it the next night :) Thanks so much!
Did you use cap plastic that is dissolved with alcohol? If so how did you colour the prosthetic with alcohol paints? I really want to try this technique in moulding and painting but I'm not sure if I need acetone based cap plastic?
I have very little lighter fluid left, can I dilute it further with acetone or ipa? My cap plastic is acetone based
Where did you get the mask you wear to protect you from breathing the harmful fumes from the products used?
love your work. i really wish i could do this kind of work. its a goal of mine :)
Aw thanks Kooky! Everything is in practice and patience and passion :)
Amazing job!! I'm a special effects artist too and I'd love to start making prosthetics. Just a quick question... The picture you based this look on; what had happened to the person that had this wound? 😊

Amazing video
Thanks Tamer!
Can you re use this prosthetics?
This is magical +_+
Thank you! :D
We're do you get your products from?, because I'm also from Australia and I find it difficult to find products. 😊
I get most of my silicones and deadeners from Barnes, the shellite from Bunnings, and the Mouldlife silicone pigments from Scotty's Makeup and Beauty.

+Freakmo thank youuu
omg you are amazing
Aw thanks Maryem, you're so sweet :D
when you started stitching it, reminds me of Dr. Sandra Lee lol
I was thinking the exact same thing!
Hahah oh god, she'd be like "wow incorrect technique, get out."
TALENT
i really want to see the refrence photo
That I can do! this is my screenshot: drive.google.com/file/d/0B5sSYOc7Z7gVakl3cWRTLUlrTHc/view
Damn, that is one fucked up knee
I like your videos

ike this in my language :(
Oh, btw, I heard something like the piece could come off if we wear latex gloves, why did she say that?
How tedious were the stitches?
Hahaha fairly tedious but I've been teaching myself hair punching so this is nothing on that.
This made my knee hurt
The glossy part is what really sells the infection on this piece! A shine on any prosthetic makes me cringe every time.
I loooove me some gloss :D thanks!
А зачем ты делаешь всё это?? Просто для себя или нет?))
Tf is wrong with u how r u sooo talented!
Hahaha wasn't sure where that was going, thanks so much
this shit is so gross. i love it.
Hahah I'm glad you like it Niamh!
That's just nasty .. 2 thumbs up lol

Ooh i love this! So gross lol
Thanks so much Kiki!
