Autodidact in the genre of costuming, but BSc (Biochemistry) and Dip. Perf. Art (actress) to boot so I will geek at you from all angles.

"If we are anything we must be a democracy of the intellect. We must not perish by the distance between people and government, between people and power.... And that distance can only be conflated, can only be closed if knowledge sits in the homes and heads of people with no ambition to control others, and not up in the isolated seats of power."

two, two layers of cloth, ahaha!

:iconglittersweet:

It is a little tricky to work with and I may have actually found it easier to follow my cunning plan all along but I have 200gm cloth and 100gm cloth on my Shae greave forms and have had my vital loading dose of anti-histamines to go trowel on some filler today. It might require me being a bit more careful with proportions as I want to do one leg at a time and avoid issues of congealing before it gets to the card.

I am at a stage where I can get photos though XD So I'll bring my camera and post to my scrapbook folder here :)


Oh, and Ados epoxy with a little West Systems fairing powder will set up in the presence of a heater very quickly indeed......

Heyy! <3
Just thought I'd leave a message to say I LOVED your masterclass panel at Wellington Armageddon about prosthetics, I was thrilled by it! So, thank you very much, you are amazing and it was great to see you doing your craft. <3
Take care!

Thank you :) I wasn't sure how well it would go given it was all the boring stuff ;) But I do really hope it gave people the courage to at least try :) That it isn't only in the realms of the professionals :)
Fraser has a whole bunch of photos so I'll be posting to the Armageddon Cosplay Tumblr and here :) And get the information I meant to have on the projector of what to do before and after :)

Oh true, fair enough!
I thought it was really interesting, I'd never seen anything like that before, and yea I had always thought it was a pro thing that is only done in movies and that! So that was really good. :)

Oh awesome! I'll have to check out the tumblr. :)

Good that your got your sample back also, that was so crappy that someone took off with it, I couldn't believe that, really. >:(

No idea how it went missing, and I'm going to hope it just went under a chair and someone else found it after we left :) I still am going to wash it all very well with disenfectant though.....

Hello there! I have to say, I absolutely adore your Samara cosplay. It is beautifully done and was curious as to how much it cost you. I would like to cosplay Liara at some point, though I don't know if I have quite the talent to create a mould/cask and then create a latex headpiece. Though yours is very beautiful!

Thank you :) I am in the throes of a Liara costume and official convention business but I will reply properly when I get back :) Investing in sculpting material, mold material and latex was the most expensive.

I love your Asari head pieces~ A few people of linked back to your page, they are just so awesome. I was wondering do you do commotions for them and how much would they be?

Ok I can understand that. I guess I will have to figure out it for myself and maybe I can come up with my OC's look... she's an Asari/Turian mix.
