Zulu Zombie Puppet Head

Today we aimed to have a fibreglass cast of our puppet heads, to do this the first of all had to vinamold our heads, we made a wooden frame around the two parts of the head and made sure that the edges were fully filled with clay so that the vinamold would not leak out. We then melted vinamold and poured it into the section waited for it to set and then released the clay heads.

After doing this we fibreglass the vinamold to get the positive out ready for when will be fixed in two parts together and filling and sanding our heads.  

I attach the two parts of my fibre glass head together with car body filler and sand it down to a smooth finish  

base coat colour on to my puppet head and wanted a dried out skin colour with a very blue timid, the blood I wanted very dried out dark, I still need to do the highlights and the shadowing to bring out the features and more this will also enhance the character.
