I need help with some SFX! I have to get a Buffy TVS style vampire forehead (The MAster actually) for a party on Saturday. any thoughts on how I might acheive this quickly and easily. I'd be useful if the prosthetic could be created, removed and re-applied nearer the time. Any thoughts?
I'm used to working with liquid latex for skin effects, it's just the building of the rasied areas I know nothing about.
Soz if this is the wrong cat, but I couldn't think where else it should go!

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.In order to make a decent reusable latex prosthetic its usually best to first obtain a cast of the subjects head. This is best done with dental impression material and plaster of paris. Once you have re-created the subject's head from a cast you simply build the desired bumps and lumps with plastiscene and then repeat the casting process. Finally you have a perfect fitting prosthetic. Hope this helps.
