Which brand of gelatin pigments do you use? I've been researching a few different ones but am unsure on which to buy. Also, have you ever used Smooth-On's bodydouble? I was looking for Lifeform, but was unable to find it here in the US so I was looking at bodydouble but it looks like you have to mold release on the body plus plaster strips to re-enforce them.
@kyriisfx Monster club with a dot and then a com sells Life Form. I would suggest a far easier approach is to make the mould in alginate and then fill with Plat Sil Gel '10' or '00' to make the finger. Depending on the alginate thickness (may use a cup and immerse the digit into it) you may avoid the need for bandage strips.
@BarakAshit There are lifecasting silicones...Try Body Double by Smooth on. Alternatively, use alginate to cast the finger and then fill the mould with platsil Gel 10. If you swill the alginate negative with acetone, it will help dry the inside. May try that out and see if it works!
@BarakAshit If you check a site called Monster Club...they sell Lifeform but I don't know what size kits. I would love to post a link...will add to the info above as I cannot add a link here.
Awesome again! Reminds me of when I had a last minute request for a severed finger and all I had lying around was Life Form and, after hours of searching, NO silicone! Ended up using candle wax.Oh well, atleast it smelt nice.
@stuartbray73 With each fingertip having a Wick! If only it was halloween again it's make a good centre piece for a party. Could skin it with Pale wax then fill the rest in with red wax and it'd look like blood. Groooooossss, but awesome.
Very well done, especially for an indy budget.

@kmjcutie94 Zombie babies are not usually troubled by toxicity, being already dead and all. x
