Proof that zombie makeup/masks are an underrated art form. Nice job. Makes me want to eat some brains.

Thanks all the comments are realy appreciated. I'll dig out some pics of me wearing it and post them. there is some footage of the leeds zombie fest of me wearing it too i'll find it and post a link. my mate Hushmapuppy did a brilliant silicone zom mask too for the festival. we work together but he did a black guy zom. will have to get him to post pics too. for now though if you type hushmapuppy into youtube theres some footage there that Daz took at the festival. cheers again for the very kind comments.

Outstanding!!! Did you sculpt it over a lifecast of your own face?

 

[piehead]

Yeah it was sculpted over a hollow urethane lifecast of myself. one thing to keep in mind for silicone masks is to shave down the area around the lips and eyes to enable a tighter fit that results in better movement. these also were reinforced around stress areas with power net .

Great masks guy

Off topic was Professor Piehead in VIZ years ago? I loved his flamethrower proof glasses - another partial success :lol

 

[Mutant-Enemy]

Nice work both of you guy's!
I'd love to hear more about your mold making and injection process'.

 

[xenochimp]

Yeah there not bad I suppose...:lol

Just kidding fellas, you know I love 'em. Can I post Bob, erm Daz? Not a mask I know but thought I'd jump on the band wagon

 

[xenochimp]

Hey Guys,

Not technically a mask but he is silicone and a zombie. He is cast in Plat gel 10 with custon acrylic eyes made by me and custom acrylic teeth and tongue made by me and Hushmypuppy, he's a good lad. He is painted in Fuse FX silicone paints.

I am still working on him, I am slowly punching hair in and hopefully he will be done by the end of next week.

If you want me to move him Prof and Hush lemme know.
