    Frank walks us through the painting of this great latex zombie mask made by his friend Tim Shea. There are many different ways to paint it, and Frank shows us how to use rubber cement paint to bring out the sculpture's details and layer on a fun color scheme.

    "Art's never finished, It's abandoned", that's both beautiful and sad.

    I absolutely love this format! Brilliant. To have the casual as-it-happening conversation with a constant timelapse, so there's never a lull, really refreshing.
    I also loved the moment at the end where we hang on Franks quote and the piano flourishes to an end, just a lovely moment, gratz to the editor :)

      I concur, the production on these videos keeps getting better. Pretty soon Tested will have to move to Vimeo!

      I fully agree with what you said. I actually found myself complaining a couple of times on tested videos and giving critisism. So.. :) I dont feel above it to then take a moment and report that this video was really pleasant to watch. Love the format as you expressed already.

    • @86_Bullnose

      +OohzyJohnDow I agree a little bit. I just want a little better editing on videos like the ones where they make models.

      It was actually Norm playing that piano romantically while Frank was painting this mask.

    I am currently enrolled in a SFX school and they teach us that to paint a foam latex mask to paint with acrylics and prosaid, 50/50 ratio. Then to finish with a translucent setting powder. It's interesting to see what others in the profession use. Loved it anyway!

    • @Glitch-Gremlin

      Well, Foam Latex and MASK Latex are completely different.

    As a scenic artist I find these videos about different mediums super enlightening.

  • @TheAyaReina

    As someone who's spent five years in art school with tutors who were very picky about the paints we used, I've learned that the difference between cheap and expensive paints is the amount of solvent used to dilute the paint, and the size of the pigment particles. Expensive paint will have finer pigments, and sometimes more pigment too, which means fewer coats to get coverage. Great video though! 😊

    I love the quote at the end, 'Art is never finished only abandoned.' - Da Vinci. I live by those words as an artist there comes a point in a piece when you just have to say it's good. More so with weathering, people can get really out of hand and true layer after layer really brings together the details and makes things pop and look great on camera you have to find a limit where you put the brush down and stop.
    Zombie looks great love the washes and details.

    Hey Frank, I am an aspiring maker and in this videoI noticed you mention "crappy chemicals." Could you and Norm do a shop video where you can talk about chemical safety, when you need a respirator and when not when working with the various toxic things we like to play with?

    Im going to give this paint a try sometime soon, I've been using latex mask paints from monster makers and I'm honestly very sick of it and the trouble its been giving me! Its chunky, hard to work with, impossible to brush on, and has ruined hundreds and hundreds of dollars in airbrush guns!

    • @alexdemers6365
      @alexdemers6365 5 років тому

      same problem with me. Switched to rubber cement, works really good with brushes, but still working on airbrush ratio. Tends to clog it quite a bit.

    The difference between the different grades of paint is the ratio of pigment. The better grades have much more pigment than the lower ones.

    I mostly use, latex thinned with 10% ammonia solution and Acrylic based pigments. It works but it smells very bad and it darkens. Because i seal my projects with polyurethane latex, i doubt that the rubber cement could survive this. But i will make an experiment to find out.
    Have a nice day.

      Took me 20 years of painting to get to the skill level. I know like myself, Frank is capable of so much more. This was just a speed paint job to show off for tested. Keep practicing, never be afraid to jump right in. You'll get there.

    "Arts never finished, its abandoned". Picasso said something similar. When do you put down the brush & walk away you know? You can also ruin art if you over do it & do too much. Good stuff lads.
