Makeup Effects, Masks and Creatures / Making a monkey of myself.
« Last post by Stevedix on January 16, 2021, 01:41:14 am »
As Steve has been making a "Planet of the Apes" mask for a while, I thought I'd post my efforts to do something simian... er similar.

As you might know, a year and a half ago, I took a course with Rob Burman, and since then, have been practicing on making foam rubber mask and appliances.

My main aim has been to replicate Cornelius.  Unfortunately, COVID and a heap of other troubles got in the way, so progress has been slow.

Here are a few links to the work on Instagram.

As you might see from the last link, the first try went ok, but due to a minor mixup on the foam, it didn't comout great.  Also, to produce another mask, I have to have a couple of other projects in parallel, as the smallest amount of foam I can mix is way too much for just the ape prosthetics, so in the meantime I've been working on a Klingon and some Vulcan ears, to use up the rest of the next batch.

Here's my result:

To post pictures use a free image host and paste the links here our embed. Or if you have a server you cast host them from there.

If you know of a good free service please let us know. Thank you.
