Home-made Fake blood (tests)
Hi there!
Just wanted to share something I worked on today. I was inspired after finishing the book that I was reading yesterday (Anything you Can Imagine ; Peter Jackson & the making of Middle-Earth). I decided to find home-made solutions to my lack of materials and my first idea was to make my own fake blood.
I am more interested in making props, but fake blood sounded fun to try and I had everything I needed in our kitchen! So I made those two, called them Orcish Green and Harpy Red. I am not entirely satisfied with how they feel and look on the skin, still needs some work, but it was fun! I plan on making more experiments. For the red one I followed a tutorial, the Green one was more me trying something. Both are edible, non-toxic and they actually washed off pretty well when I tested them on my skin.

Harpy Red was made with hot water (boiling), sugar, cocoa powder and red food coloring.
Orcish Green was the same base idea but I tried using Matcha powder in it to darken the green coloring rather than Cocoa only

I only had red and green with me so I decided to only go with that for now, but I will make sure to try this as well !
