Re: Best Method for fur transfer onto silicone skin?
Hi Jay, I believe Deborah's original response answers your follow-up question. Silicone caulking is what you should use as an adhesive for silicone skin, working small areas at a time. But as she also says, be sure to TEST first!
Re: Best Method for fur transfer onto silicone skin?
Hi Jay,
We passed your question along to our Fur Transfer course instructor Deborah Galvez and she offers this advice:
"As a good rule of thumb, silicone needs a silicone adhesive. Try a silicone caulking and do small areas at a time as the silicone has a certain amount of work time. Try a TEST first to make sure it works. Hope this helps."

Hi David,
Things are going well, thanks! Focusing on art and creativity during all the chaos has been a big help for me personally. Hope you too are safe and well!

This years project was a 25' crouching gorilla. Combining an animatronic cable eye mechanism, breathing chest and puppetry to bring it to life.
Thanks Stan Winston!
Thanks Stan Winston!

Re: Hair on my Pennywise buste
Hi Cyrille,
You could use an off-the-shelf wig and dye/style it to work for this character, make your own wig, or hand lay the hair.
Here is one of our lessons on hand laying hair for prosthetics

Re: Monster Clay in the Movies
Hi Fearicia:
Thank you for the question. This is Arnold from Monster Makers. My company is the manufacturer of Monster Clay.
Monster Clay has been around for decades, so it has been used for many films and is used by most if not all of the fx shops around the world. The Artists that have used it in films are free to comment directly, but a few of the prominent films off the top of my head: Star Wars: The Force Awakens: Monster Clay was used to create the melted Darth Vader Mask. Monster Clay was also used to recreate Yoda in Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Many of the creatures in David's lab for Alien Covenant were sculpted in Monster Clay as well. There are quite a few more but I would have to dig a little to get a more comprehensive list. For images you can find quite a large number by just searching some of the above references or just search Monster Clay.
Hope that helps and Happy New Year!
Best regards,
Arnold

Here is my creation, know as The Cannabis Man I have been sent here from planet ganjinia to help rescue this miracle plant from persecution!, to be honest I am reaching out to the Stan Winston crew hoping that someone can help me take this to the next level, I am seeking some mechanical movements some led lights + smoke, not to mention my paint could use some realizm to make it look about 2000 years old and have been flying in and out of atmospheres saving the Cannabis plant from near extinction! Please contact me via Email if you would like to be a part in helping the cannabis man! #teamworkmakesthedreamwork
