Hi Everyone! NEW Monster Lab! We are going to start releasing Monster Lab episodes more regularly again, starting with 4 new episodes in July! These next 4 videos will cover the sculpting, molding, and painting of your own custom fit Zombie mask. (or other character you want) Then in the final of the 4 we will show you how to put it all together in a zombie costume. Please comment below with any questions, ideas, your own mask making or DIY experiences etc. in addition for ideas for future Monster Labs. Also, if you like the content please share it, subscribe and comment as this helps us to continue to make more.

I’m new to sculpting/mask making. I have an Ed Head full head armature and also a half head. How do I need to build the nose up to be able to have it rotted off but still keep enough clay? The nose is just too big if I build it up enough to chop it off and not exposing the armature nose. Do I really just need to build the whole face up thicker to account for that? I hope my question makes sense.
@eviledwin7775 жыл бұрын
It does. I had to give up on the shrunken nose in this video. You could sculpt a normal nose just add a little shrunken look by coming out a little and paint the inside black.
