Update for the jar of body parts...


Here is the next addition to the Slice N’ Dice jar of body parts. The belly button it self was cast using alginate then using silicone i made a positive of the cast then I used crepe hair to add a little more realism to this piece and i think it was worth the effort...

Spiked Mohawk update

Sorry it’s been awhile since I have posted any updates but I have been a busy bee with work, and with out further a due here is a little glimpse of the sculpting of the spiked Mohawk. Still in its very early stages at the moment, but at this point I’m thinking of designing this piece to go with a demonic character... will keep you posted.

Flesh carving update


Here is a little update of the Flesh carvings as you can see the first one has gone through some major changes, i decided the edges were way to flat so have made them more jagged to give the more ripped off the body effect! as you see as well to the left i have started the second piece as well, i planning to eventually frame all four pieces so they hang on the wall. hope you all like...

Project Updates

Just a few updates to keep all you Slice N' Dice fans in the loop...
Flesh carvings: on my previous post you saw the picture of the sculpture, this has gone for a little re-vamp as having sat back and looked at it the whole piece did not look jagged enough the edges were to smooth and nice looking! So they are being carved up a bit :)

Spiked Mohawk: the casing of the scalp piece is now complete and finally dry, now looking to play around with some ideas on how to attach the nails??? Once that is done sculpting will begin :)

Flesh Carvings...


Here is a sneak peak at a little something I have started, after the recent nipple casting I got the idea and inspiration to do a scroll carved into human flesh which was then torn into four pieces. Each section of the scroll has part of a map which at the moment im looking to combine Carving and a Tattoo effect to give it an interesting look. At the moment this picture is of the very early stages of sculpting of the first section. Hope you all like…

Casting for project spikey

The Kitchen has now turned into a bomb site after the casting of the scalp for my spiked Mohawk, Alginate and plaster all over the place. Next stage is to start sculpting the piece which is where I in vision lots of hurdles...
At the moment im going for nails protruding from exposed skull with stitches holding it all together, but time will tell…

So keep watching for updates...

Just a few updates

Sometimes things just don’t go to plan: had my first attempt that went horribly wrong with applying a Chelsea smile prosthetic piece I had bought awhile ago I made the grave error of not make sure the face was clean and makeup free, the colouring I have to say of the scarring I got pretty much spot on! Sadly im way to embarrassed to post pictures so this horrific piece of work shall never be seen… (But watch this space as the new pieces are on order and attempt two will begin very soon)

Project Spiked Mohawk: good news the head has arrived so will be starting casting very soon but first some pre planning towards the style i’m going to be going with this?!

Just a few up dates including (pickled fingers)

The mannequins head is on order which from this I will be able to make quite a few prosthetic pieces they will be generic but should be fun as I have lots of ideas brewing.

Also update on the pickled fingers finally got the fingers looking good but the pickled idea has fallen through as the simulated pickle juice keeps going off and the effect of the fingers does not show through the liquid, but I think the change to a jar of fingers ears and possible nipples should look equally nasty..

Above is a quick look at one almost completed finger just hairs to add and possible some bone for the final effect...

New cracked finger nail


I had a play around with a new style of fake finger nail to get this effect. all i used was a natrual stick on finger nail i bought from super drug for a couple of pounds some pro wax and fake blood! and presto an effective looking injury!
