How to Create a Zombie Makeup Special FX with Silicone

Smooth-On's Dragon Skin® FX-Pro and Slacker® silicone modifier can be used to create silicone gel filled appliances which move and flex with an actor's every expression. In this video, Dragon Skin® FX-Pro is combined with Slacker® and cast into a Shell Shock® resin mold to create a silicone zombie facial prosthetic makeup appliance. The appliance is then adhered using Skin Tite® silicone bio-adhesive to create a realistic skin effect.

@KeissRandomKeissen The mold is made out of Shell Shock and PlastiPaste II urethane resins.

Another step by step masterpiece. FX Pro is a "top shelf" effects product...better than anything we know at the moment. How long does it stay on? From our experience, until you take it off. We did a 'living dead' film, shot for 9 hours straight and the appliance stayed perfectly in place.

how long would the mask stay on?
