Breaking Down Workshop

This workshop was really fun as we were literally just trying to make ourselves look gory and playing with fake blood! (well, red dye). We were making bullet wounds and used puff binder to create a sort of scabby look to the wound. Latex paint can be used to make the wound look wet and 'fresh'. When designing the wounded costume you need to know how old the wound is and bare this in mind when thinking about colour etc.

Puff binder is a liquid foam that can be painted onto fabric and when heat is applied it expands to create 3D effects. To change its colour it can either be painted after it has expanded or dye can be mixed into the foam solution (be careful not to add too much dye or the foam will turn to liquid and will not expand when heat is applied).
