Is that latex glove material you used for the mouth? If not where did you get it? That is cool effect.

Did you use the liquid latex body paint over the sculpture or the plastic cast?

Thanks For the Help!

@mosleyau no its not the latex glove. its just normal latex that i pored out and let dry. like a skin graphed. i then brushed on the the seems with latex to seal the whole thing up.

Hi and thank you for the comment.

The latex im using here is a standard issue "Liquid Latex Body Paint"

by liquidflesh . com

i painted it directly to the sculpture in three layers and once dried pulled it off so i had some form of impression from the sculpture detail.

Brilliant ! If you are not working for an animations company then one should hire you!

ahhh this was SO cool! I wish they would use animatronics instead of cheap CGI's in movies nowadays... They look WAY better!

Very impressive. I want to say thx for the info on the liquid latex body paint. I'm working on an animatronic zombie and can put that one to good use.
