High Tech Materials Create a Horrific Zombie

Step 6: Casting with Dragon Skin FX Pro

Use Dragon Skin® FX-Pro® to create the surface layer for the facial appliance. The mix ratio of Dragon Skin® FX-Pro® is 1:1 by weight or volume. Combine Silc Pig® Blood pigment with Dragon Skin® FX-Pro® part B. Then, combine and mix Parts A and B thoroughly. Stipple a layer of Dragon Skin® FX-Pro® on the mold positive and negative using a disposable brush.

Next, combine 50g FX-Pro® Part A with 50g FX-Pro® Part B and 100g SLACKER® to produce a soft silicone gel. Again, combine Silc Pig® pigments with Dragon Skin® FX-Pro® part B to simulate the flesh tone of the model. Combine and mix all of the material components thoroughly.

Slowly pour the material into the mold in a thin stream to eliminate air bubbles. Align the parts and put them together to sandwich the silicone appliance for proper curing. Close the 2-part mold tightly and allow the FX-Pro® to cure for 1 hour.
