Scars, Cuts, Other

[Mark Bonnington]

What are the recipes for making scar, cuts and other injury prosthetic devices? How about making full human appendages with foam latex (arms, legs, heads, etc), anyone have recipes and sources for the ingredients to do that? Any other horror movie blood/gore FX instructions would also be appreciated... good recipes for blood, recipes for slime, etc.

I ended up in a sea of spam when I did a Google search. I'll try again, but I figured this forum might be a jump start in the right direction. And some of the recipes I came across... they could result in ANYTHING. I'd love to hear first hand experiences from filmmakers who have tried them and can say "that was useless", or "that was the most realistic stuff ever".

You'll find that many substances will work for a lot of effects. The illusion will really be sold when you leanr to treat them just so and make things look perfect.
