How to make 'gory wounds':
1.) Smear liquid latex onto the desired area, in the desired shape using a cotton bud.
2.) Using a toothpick, make a rut in the latex to mark where the gash will open.
3.) Wait for the latex to dry. Use a toothpick to poke into the sides of the rut to open the cut and curl up the sides a little. Allow to air dry again.
4.) Using the stipple sponge, apply purple make up to create bruising. Rub in a little using a cotton bud.
5.) Lightly brush the stipple sponge over the latex to create a dry/torn skin look.
6.) Add the fake blood using a toothpick to get the liquid underneath the latex and then a cotton bud to add more.
This was made using the peanut butter fake blood. It looked more realistic out of the four wounds I created on my arm.
This was the less realistic splatter blood. It looks more like tomato ketchup than blood and was too watery.
This wound was created using the chocolate sauce. It was a better shade than the last one but still too runny to use on cuts.
This type of fake blood is definitely better for splatter blood.
The blood gel is too red and unrealistic. It was a good consistency but cannot be used as splatter blood because of the cost implications.
Equipment used:
Cotton buds,
Liquid Latex,
Purple eyeshadow,
Stipple sponge,
Toothpicks,
Fake blood/ blood gel
The only bad thing about using the latex was peeling it off at the end... it really hurt...
