Creating scars with molds

Step By Step-

• To create a mold ensure you have to have a clean dry mold and spray it with quick release, this enables the product you put into the mold to come out once it has set without any problems.
• You then take some Prozade which will be used to stick on the prosthetic piece. Prozade enables the piece to move unlike Spirit gum. Ensure you have the Prozade remover when using this product. 
• Prozade is a contact adhesive so you MUST apply the product to the prosthetic piece and not straight onto the skin- ensure the Prozade is CLEAR before putting it onto the skin.  
• Once the prosthetic piece is on and is stuck, you need to use a baby bud and witch hazel to soften down the edges. Witch Hazel will remove the entire prosthetic piece so use little product and gently soften down the edges.
• Once you have finished the sticking of the prosthetic piece and the edges have been softened you can use a translucent powder over the top (use a sponge or pad and press down) The powder will ensure the sticky residue from the gelatin does not get on your brushes
• Using fake blood, wound filler and your supra color pallet you can now make/design your wound as needed. 

Evaluation-

I have always enjoyed special effects, the blood and gore is something I find so fun within the make up world but creating this was so frustrating! I got off to a good start, my edges were good and then when I started to color in the wound it finished looking awful. Sue helped me understand how to work the witch hazel in properly to get a good effect and I re colored the wound and added some fake blood and there you had it, it looked great!
