Colouring Gelatine moulds-scars

Colouring Gelatine Moulds-scars 

What I used:

• prothetic glue - prosade contact glue, tough, moves with the prosthetic
• pro clean oil to remove 
• ready made scars from gelatine 
• super colour Kryolan 
• Stipple sponge 
• blending sponge 
• makeup brushes 
• wound filler 
• pus 
• bruise wheel 
• witch hazel 
• powder for the moulds to stop them sticking 

Health and safety: 

• Ensure the model has no contraindications 
• take an allergy test on the model before any application 
• cover the model's clothes 
• never mix the colours 
• wash brushes before and after use 
• take care when pulling off the gelatine mould 
• clean the skin after  

I used super colour and sponges to create the look for this scar, I needed to spend more time using witch hazel to bend the edges. I was happy with the colours I used and the products I used inside the cut; the colours I used where mainly reds and black, I wanted to create a more blue tone in the centre to show the veins of the character, and I bleed the colours out further own the arm to show the redness of the blood vessels against the skin.    

I added wound filler to the middle of the cut to show an old and burnt effect, I also added pus and blue supercolour to give the effect of a real inside of an arm. Next time I will use blood and fill the centre to make it look fresh, I will also spend more time melting out the edges of the gelatine soul dot make it flush with the skin, this will ensure a more realist look.
