Materials used:
Gelatine
Liquid Latex
Alcohol activated paints
99% alcohol
Scab blood
- Do the first coat of gelatine, then use a second coat to raise certain parts.
- Use yellows, greens and blues for the 'infected look' (I was originally going to call it the Dead Mermaid, but thought it looked more infected than dead)
- Use the yellows and greens in a light wash around the infected areas, and up the arm (to make it more realistic looking)
- If you're going for more realist look, I wouldn't use the blood as an infection wouldn't necessarily have blood. You could use something which would symbolise puss instead (as gross at that sounds)
