    Master Replicas Groups has filed for bankruptcy

    I'm in the same boat - likely out hundreds of dollars because of this filing. Someone started a Google Group that has updates if you're interested. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/hal-9000-replica I can't speak to the veracity of it, but there's an alleged email that explains the whole...

    Help: Makeup over prosthetics

    Warning: New to all of this... I'm trying to do makeup effects to make a zebra, and I already have a foam latex prosthetic that I have sealed and I have RMG, which I have applied already to pre-paint the prosthetic, but it is VERY tacky and cannot be thinned to paint stripes. My question is...

    Vacu-formed it. I'll post how I built the vacu-former. I'm still learning it and had a few duds before I got one that worked. Also, I really loved the nightshades tinting. It's hard to work with though the results are beautiful. I painted the inside in many many thin coats, and it wasn't...
