I know fxwarehouse.info has a great foam latex replica. It'll set you back $50 but its really nice.

@ItachiUchiha2010: We know. This is for folks who don't want to or can't afford to buy those pieces, like making things themselves, or want to learn to make prosthetics for any other type of character.

Thanks, really helpful video. I've been using the latex/cotton technique for awhile now, and I'd like to try this one now. Any suggestions on where to find/buy a good quality Phantom stage mask like yours?

@spiderpigc Check eBay, as there's a seller who's producing Crawford-esque replicas made out of resin. Otherwise, shoot me an email and I'll forward some other ideas.

what ive found out with mask making is basically the same teqnique i use oil based clay on the sculpt as well as the containiing walls so the plaster doesnt come out as easily :) and this is awesome :) and also you shouldnt need to actually need to add a release agent as it should just easily come out (if your lucky ;) ) but i havent had anyproblems on when it involves pulling the clay out of the cast witout a release agent and i love the prosthetic :)
