Amazing! It was a really nice display of various materials and skills, would like to see how the eyes were made. I'm thinking of using the gel encapsulated within DS-AF for some orthopedics projects I have.

@unwhite1960 Ай бұрын

i think just use EZ-Brush vac silicone will be perfect for making SLIMER !!! its translucent green color!!

@smoothon Ай бұрын

That's a good thought. We wanted more of an opaque color and there is also some Silc Pig Electric so that Slimer glows under UV light.

Smell can be hard to say. Some materials have no odor and some can have an odor. It will all depend on the specific material.

The reason why one would use silicone would be for movement or realistic translucency of flesh. For this prop, as in the original in the film, Latex is what should be used to construct this . Using silicone where they very properties of silicone are not need is wasteful and unnecessary.

@smoothon Ай бұрын

There are a number of different ways to make these props. We used silicone because it will last much longer than latex but it also gives us very realistic feeling fatty tissue areas as well as the increased physical properties of the silicone. There are always many different ways to make these amazing pieces and we love the process! Thanks for watching!
