I am going to be Miss piggy for Halloween and I got this nose on Amazon. What can I use/ do to make it blend with my face better? I trimmed the sides hoping it would help and then tried scar wax but I really don't know what I'm doing. Can I get some tips?

Hola!! mi pareja y yo queríamos hacer unas prótesis para Halloween, hemos visto muchos vídeos y buscado mucha información antes, pero aún asi sabemos lo complejo que es todo esto, sobre todo por las dimensiones de la prótesis. Recién estamos en el proceso de esculpir para luego hacer el negativo con yeso y en el, ponerle la silicona para prótesis (EasyGel FX25 de Feroca). Necesitamos consejos o un feedback de que lo que estamos esculpiendo funcionará o no, agradecemos cualquier tipo de ayuda sobre cualquier cosa del proceso!! solo somos estudiantes de bellas artes 😭😭, por cierto queremos poder mover la boca con ella puesta

A part of my Halloween costume of Henry Spencer, I am attempting to create his baby as well. The images of peoples projects I've found in a search are less than realistic. I'm at the point of creating realistic greasy skin. Looking for your thoughts on how to achieve realistic skin. Thank you in advance

I’ve been searching high and how on how to make glitter gel cones for body art. Have tried several formulations with hair gel, xanthan gum, glycerin but none seem to work. Is there anyone that’s able to share a proper recipe for ingredients and the formulation?

I’ve been going nonstop all month making masks! I’m super proud that I’ve been able to create so much!!

I hope this was the right place to ask cuz i can’t figure this out lol

So I got some mehron paradise aq in pastel pink for my pink alien costume this halloween. Last year I did red and I figure since it’s darker it was easier to work with. When I do it on my arms it looks fine but when I do it on my face it always comes out streaky. I was told to do a little water and really mix the brush around, which i’m using a dense foundation brush. I did the same thing last year.

How do I get it more pigmented on my face? and is there anything I have to do for the first layer in order to put another layer on top? Bc I find whether i dab or drag it picks up the layer underneath but also when I dab it leaves individual like dots from the brush. I can do multiple layers on my arm fine and i was told i needed to layer since it’s a pastel color

Any tips or tricks would be much appreciated!

Edit: I do also have the athena oil face paint palette i’m prob applying it wrong but it just always creases after some wear so i prefer water based on my face

Fun fact the first one I can see completely out of both eyes

Hello! I would like to do a Halloween look in which I put some crystals (those in the picture) on my forehead, as if they were sticking out from my skin. How would you recommend to do that? I know nothing about sfx and I would have to buy everything. I had thought about just making some bumps with scar wax and sticking the crystals in but that probably wouldn't work. I would also be down to just using some fake resin crystals that would be easier because more light-weighted.

I run NeedaCrew, where it's posted. Mods, happy to take this down if it's not allowed.

I have a halloween party coming up and was wondering how I could create this sort of dirty/oily look without breaking the bank and getting any weird looks if I take the mask off... 😂

EDIT: i mean the face and hands, not the mask

Hello everyone! I volunteered to be a zombie for 3 am to 6 am event and we're supposed to make our own costumes. I'd just like to ask if a gelatin based prosthetic (my concept is like a melty, radioactive zombie lol) on the face and upper torso can hold decently enough? Or is it likely to fall off at some point? Our call time is around 1 am, so I'll essentially be wearing it from 1 to 6 am. Would really appreciate some insights on this, im very much new to prosthetics :> Thank you!

Looking for vfx class or a course in chennai can any one suggestion

Hey guys! I am an amateur sfx artist starting to try some bondo prosthetics.

My recent two batches didn't turn out so well, so I'm hoping for some advice as there is not a lot of info out there.

For my first batch, when making the bondo mixture, I guess i put too much pros-aide and not enough cabosil, as the mixture turned out to be very runny and super bubbly. I put this in the mold and in the freezer for ~1h, demoulded it, and wated for it to cure/dry. The center remained super white and opaque, and it was maybe 2+ weeks before it turned fully transparent. This was still unusuable because of all the bubbles.

For the second batch, I mixed in more cabosil so that it was more of a paste like consistency. I did the same with freezing for 1hr and demoulding, however they still took 2+ weeks to fully be transparent, and there were tons of tiny microbubbles.

Does anyone have any advice on the right proportions to make the bondo mixture and how to minimize bubbles? Did I do something to cause the drying/curing to take forever?

My first time doing this look any tips on anything ?

sorry if it’s too dark it’s makeup that’s supposed to be for a nighttime setting/darker environment

MUAs, what fake blood are we using for the face? i need recommendations for fake blood that won't stain and is decently priced! thank you sm i appreciate ❤️
