[HELP] Silicone sleeve/gloves
Hello,
I was wondering if someone might be able to help me in regards to making a prosthetic piece for a short film. I need to make a prosthetic for easy application on set and the director has asked for an animal glove/sleeve type prosthetic that can be slipped on and off and is not bulky. I have sculpted, cast and moulded wounds and a miniature maquette but have never created a hallow prosthetic before. Would i have to go about a process where I cast a positive and negative and then assemble them and fill in the gap with silicone? I will be making the prosthetic from home so do not have access to certain equipment but any suggestions would be helpful on how to go about this piece.
Thank you!
