How difficult is it to make masks like these? I want to have a Two-Face costume for SDCC next year, and I'd love to have something that looks as good as what I see here.

How difficult is it to make masks like these? I want to have a Two-Face costume for SDCC next year, and I'd love to have something that looks as good as what I see here.

It's not really very difficult just a bit time consuming. Here.s a quick tutorial. I don't have pictures but if i make any more prosthetics in the next week I will take pictures of the process.

You will need:
modeling clay or play doh
Liquid latex
Toilet paper
small paint brush
and of course paint to paint the finished prosthetic.

optional but makes things ALOT easier. A foam head. you can find them online for like $2 or at a costume shop


First using either the foam head, (or another person willing to let you put clay on their face)... start with a base layer of modeling clay

using a plastic spatula, your hands, whatever mold the clay into some cool burn and scar shapes.

once you have a good design start by applying a thin base coat of liquid latex over the clay.

Next put some toilet paper over the liquid latex. Make sure you pack the toilet paper into all the crevices and don't lose any of your details.

let dry then apply another coat and repeat this process a few times.

Make sure you keep it a bit thinner at the edges of the prosthetic to help blending with the skin.

You can use a blow dryer to speed up the drying process.

After you are satisfied with the prosthetic. Paint it up to look burned and gory.
now you have a prosthetic.

I prefer to do mine in multiple pieces. Takes longer when putting them on because you have to do alot of blending but the results are fantastic

Awesome work, great costume. i hope mine turns out that good

Can I make a suggestion? Try using a sponge to add some 'crisp' in the middle of the 'line' down his face. It'll look a bit better that way. My brother is going as a Comic/TDK two face....


But I like yours better...hehe.

I did my friend's makeup for Two Face last night. It was my first time doing such gruesome stuff, but he liked the look a lot.

 

[nbond99]

Yep, I happen to be that friend hahaha, that was quite fun.

what'd you guys use? its looks awesome!

Since alot of the old viral threads were deleted, does anyone know where I'd find some of the Dent campaign materials? I'll likely slap one of the stickers on my "clean" side.

 

[OctaviusINC]

Very simple and cheap stuff. We bought some "scorched skin" makeup for about $5. I also used crumpled tissue paper, flesh latex, and spirit gum. When It all dried I went over it with different shades of red acrylic paint and then black acrylics to give it a crispy look.

i looked and couldn't find anything So i just photoshpoped my own button adn used a button kit from wal mart to make a "I Believe in Harvey Dent" button

Did some make-up tests last night and just wanted to show you guys one of the shots we got.

That was with only 2 layers of latex and one shade of red. Image 7 layers, a bunch of different shades covering the entire side of my face with the two prostetics (skull and ligaments). I'm so freakin pumped for tomorrow night to see it all come together. I'll have a lot of pictures to post over the weekend!

 

[neomage2021]

looking good i'll post pics of my full costume tonight. Have a party to go to!!!!

testing yesterday i found you can make some pretty cool looking burnt skin/***** look by dipping pieces of cotton ball in liquid latex and applying it to your face. then just touch up with a little puss/blood colored make up and some black. Looked pretty cool when I tried it

 

[TurboTrey03]

i was trying to go the dfa route with the mask thing for my bro. i had a latex mask i cut up and no we cant get it to stick in the test spot. we are using spirit gum? anyone can shed some light on it? thanks in advance!

 

[neomage2021]

Here is a few sneak peeks at my costume.., more and make up coming soon

 

[neomage2021]

this one ended up blurry

 

[Matt.S99]

I like it, but to me, it kinda looks like someone threw up on the jacket? I think its cuz of the yellow and it kinda looks like a mucky green too. Maybe adding some black, red, and orange will balance it out

 

[neomage2021]

yeah there is alot more red that didn't show up in the picture. The yellow is really a skin color latex with some brown in it. But you're right i'm adding some red paint and see if i can bring everything out some more including all teh burn hole

 

[Mike53421]

****, you guys are putting my scarring to shame haha.
