Burns Practical

Products:

·      Gelatine- used in fashion and prosthetics can either buy gelatine or melt down jelly crystals or buy the Gel Glyk from Screen Face either do a blue colour, red and flesh – you can mix any texture into gelatine i.e. glitter ALTHOUGH can’t heat up metal in the microwave!!!!  

Step 1: heat up the Gelatine in the microwave- NO METAL IN THE MICROWAVE!

Think about were and when the burn was done- colours often around the edge if there is a fire- burn come from within the skin so blend out the colours well- Burns are always Shiny!

Step 2:Using thin layer of ripped tissue place into the area glue over using colodian let this layer dry and build up to create texture- hair dry to speed up the process. You can use T pins used for wigs to pick up bits of the tissue to create rips in the skin and texture in depth.

Step 3: apply colour over the top patting on as not to pull of the tissue applied. Apply gelatine checking before hand that its not to hot onto the skin- Clear and red to look like blood- can further add puss or fake blood to add more elements into the burn.

I loved this practical and really got into building the colours using the gelatine and my supra colour pallet!
