Burns

Since Im so lost from the last two weeks, I'll just keep this topic to burns.
We do so much in one class, and skip from thing to thing, its hard to keep track.

Most efficient burns are used with latex.
Smelly horrible latex.
Why does this stuff need to smell so bad. I can't stand working on someone or my own hand with this stuff, I can only imange doing a Two-Faced look (which i want to do) and putting it so close to someone's nose.
Common they can't put a little rose water in this thing?
Anyways you'll need a good amount of latex, some kleenex, burns and cut color wheel, blood, charcoal powder, and some art skills.

Start with putting a good amount of Latex on the skin wherever you want the burn to be.
Peel Kleenex in two, so its very thin, and put on top of the wet latex.
Tear away excess kleenex so it looks jagged.
Add more latex (the key is to drench it) then Kleenex. Fold some to make it look uneven and add on top. Make some holes by picking at the new skin. So some of the burn has depth.
Blow dry on cool, to not actually burn the person at such a close range.
Once that is done, and your satisfied with the look, you can now start to "color it"
Using the burns and cut wheel, add blues, reds, pinks, and purples.
Charcoal can be added on top, for a better effect. Once that is complete throw blood on top, by brushing it on.
Make sure the edge of the latex and skin blend well.
You're done!

It all depends on the type of burn your going for. This is obviously a 3rd degree burn, where it is so burnt its eating at the skin to the bone, where blood starts to exit the wound.
Pictures are great to have a references, but hard to look at a burn victim so early in the morning.

Once you get the hang of it, burns can be done in a matter of minutes.
Really easy stuff.
I enjoy making burns but cannot stand the smell.
Also in winter then tend not to ship Latex due to freezing while shipping. The latex i have is a small amount and must be warmed up before using, the big bottle which smells a lot worse, but its better for using on bigger wounds, is from class, and they sold out in most places, so now I have to wait.
I dislike waiting.


First burn I ever did without even knowing how to do them. We told to try to see if we could do it on our own.


Burn done on me. My burned hand grabbing my boob. Why? Whynot!

Taking it off is not as fun.

My own work, on myself. Not bad for my first time.
