Plague Zombie Makeup

Kaoime Malloy

This is a two part application using gelatin appliances and a full set of custom teeth and contacts. The appliances were sculpted on the lifecast with medium chavant and then split into two pieces to create snap molds for the upper jaw/face and the lower jaw and neck. The appliances were glued down with Prosaid and edges were then blended with witch hazel or sculpted directly on the skin with warm gelatin. The appliances were lightly pre-painted with Skin Illustrators to speed up the application time. Alcohol colors and RMGP were applied in layers for the final application as well as a coating of KY to keep the skin and hair looking slimy. Blood was applied to the mouth to make it look juicy and particularly diseased. The total application time was about 3 1/2 hours.
