@agent385 I am in the process of working on my own this year. I have never had any talent when it comes to this stuff, but I think I am doing well. The latex and cotton balls are pretty easy to work with. Thanks for the video and hope to see a new one this year.
@cherryman666 This one took 2-3 days I think. There is a lot of waiting time between some of the steps. Latex has to dry, watery paint has to dry, it just takes time.
the eye doesnt look real, if the corpse was rotting the pupil would go white, it would look better and more realistic if the eye looked realer great vid anyway!!
@StereoPurple 1, There is no such word as "realer." 2, you're wrong, your pupils do not turn white, they remain the same color, but your eyes get cloudy and dull, and actually shrink into your skull as they dry out. After 3 weeks you leak decomposition fluids from your eyes, nose and mouth. 3, everyone that ever told me "it would look better..." has never produced a better version. 4, it's a halloween prop. I could NEVER get away with this for an actual movie. 5, thanks for the compliment.
@incaliber45 Only one way to find out. :) I did this as just a fun thing to do for youtube. So there is no set of instructions, I'm just making it up based on what I know. So feel free to experiment with different techniques.
@shonie115 Hi. :) The website was hosted thru a friend (big mistake) He didn't pay the bill. Needless to say the site is down. However, I'm not sure if I can post the prices here as it might break some weird ad rules. But you can send agent385 or me a private message and I can send you the info.
two things to add: the bone, especially the cheekbone is too white: maybe dipp the whole skull into a pot of coffee for a day and let it dry (dont know it the colour will stick).
Also the eye is too shiny. If you see a dead man's eyes they will appear rather grey and dim. maybe you could have used a little grey-watery colour all over the eyeball.
I was using just your average run of the mill 2 dollar acrylic paints you can get at any hobby store. Michael's will have it, if your walmart has a craft section you can usually find them there as well. They're cheap. since I basically do just washes, a little goes a long way. I use a flesh color, raw siena (or burnt siena) black, red, green, yellow, white.. that's about it. you can pretty much mix your colors if you need using just those.
Well narrated, shot and planned. I believe someone else has commented on it bein g one ot the best informative videos out there, I concur. Are you a member of Halloween Forum by chance? If not, you would be a great asset for the HF community. Again, great job.
any powder will do. Baby powder. Your girlfriend/wife's $30.00 an ounce, translucent concealer powder imported from France works just as well. ;)
All the powder does is adheres to the tackiness of the latex. So ANYTHING that is powdery will work. Never tried it, but I bet flour would work as well.
cool. :) This is just something I do from time to time during halloween. As an FX artist, I do this stuff everyday. So I tend to do what I know. Perhaps, take your skull, mold it, mass produce it and sell it to halloween stores. On a mass scale like that you could be making tens of thousands. $1500 is a good start, but that's not much in FX. Just keep at it. And grow your business. :)
Awsome dude that's just amazing simple but realy amazing and effective I love it thanks for shareing with us
