This video shows how to make life casts from your skin with Alginate and cast in plaster. I also show you how to do a 'clay press' so that you can make a latex cast of the item, like a rubber life mask, without putting plaster directly on your skin.

@zanruos88 I believe it's called 'Empress' Alginate or just non-Chromatic Alginate. It's exactly the same only it doesn't change colour, and it also costs more for some reason.

Your pictures of your process of some of your projects are on the creative resources "how-to" website do u work for them??? And in your latex painting video for the airbrushing do u know where I can get a cheap airbrush compressor and do u know if the latex paints on the creative resources website are water based or something similar so I can thin it to go through the airbrush???
Thanks for your help,
Pierce

@PierceFitzgerald Yes the pictures are used with permission, and some other pictures from my website are used in the Creative Resources How-To's also with permission. Basically I wrote those How-To articles. The Stretchi paints are the same paints which are thinned with water. My airbrush and compressor was a budget set that came from eBay some time ago.
