All of the above comments I'd like to see. Definatley a 3d printing pipeline, and maybe how you would tackle a small production run (i.e toys/collectibles) from the moulds and tips on maintaining mould life.

-Any info on licensing, I do not wish to infringe on copyright works of others but it's temping to do fan art or unlicesed work to draw in an audience. How would you go about approaching a company to do it all legit, protoype first and do a proposal? Is it all down to finances and simply you pay out for a license? For example you've seen a movie you adore and would love to make high quality official halloween mask or statues or props? -the internet hasn't provided me concrete answers on this one.

-On the less creative side I think some more overview of workshop safety, materials etc. How to rig homestyle alternatives for fume extraction etc, home made sparay booth, I see lot's of photos of people working in their home kitchen, (been there done that too) not ideal but how can we make it safer for those without workshop access?
 And guidelines to consider when fabricating, how do we know the structure we've made is safe (i,e large dinosaur internal armature) and how to fireproof / preserve sculptures etc for outside long term display in a public place (i.e  made of fibreglass).

-How about a bare bones series, similar to Garage monsters where everything fabricated has to be 'off the shelf' or found, no specialist advanced materials allowed, minimal use of power tools.
What would a pro bring with them in their tool kit to work on site short notice?
Or a head to head challenge, a real time brief, your working pro doing a project and updating alongside a open forum challenge, real life setbacks and all.
I think it would be interesting to see how a professional finish can be achieved with the simple stuff, I know I often get distracted from projects if I haven't the resources to finish it and should know better that great art isn't about flashy clay etc. It's nice when your instructors elaborate on their thought process', how they persevere through 'valley of the suck'-(Don Lanning reference).

That's loads sorry, SWSCA is great just the way it is, and I'm grateful it exists! Thanks again to all for your hard work making it awesome!! 😍

Honestly, SWSCA has covered so much ground that I don't mind simply seeing more of the same! I'd love to see some more from Don Lanning, Jordu, Norman Cabrera (who was great for his first time teaching!), Steve Johnson, Shannon Shea, and others. It's an honor seeing these great artists create beautiful works from start to finish. 

As far as new tutorials, I would love to see some complex figure/maquette molding. That's a very advanced and elusive process that would be great to see. Perhaps some silicone mask making as it's slightly different than latex mask making. Any cable-controlled puppet making is always fascinating. 

All in all, everything has been great and I appreciate everything the SWSCA has done. Keep up the great work! 

I'd like to know more about professional costume weathering techniques. 

What are the chances of getting Mike Hill to do a live course on sculpting a bust?

Pumpkinhead… I would love to learn how to make Pumpkinhead….

Stilted framework for building massive costumes 

Complex mould making is what I need to learn more about. Multi piece and matrix moulds.
Also how to cut up and key maquette statues.

It would be AWESOME if their was a scenic design/movie set design class

I am trying to teach myself to hand tie beards, is there a formula for measuring the dimensions for the mustache and chin piece?  

I am not doing this as a job, I’m trying this as part of my physical therapy after my stroke and subsequent surgeries. 

@Chris Ellerby Hi Chris, I think it would be fun to see how to use camera angles and light to make practical effects look the best. It would be interesting from a painting, cinematography, sculpting and director perspective. Br, Oskar

I would like to learn Painting and Fabrication as these will help me to be creative.

I think it would be good to have a silicone painting lesson for a female face, maybe with a range of complexions. 

I voted for "puppets" but specifically, I'd love a "crash course" on mechanisms, particularly one that covers a) how to make a wide range of simple mechanisms from cheap or household objects, and b) covers a broader range of how those mechanisms can be utiltized. 

For example:

Part One: Basic Mechanism Construction

"Jaw" mechanism

• demo 3 distinct construction styles (brake cable, eye screw + fishing wire, etc.)
• Here's how your "jaw" could be a crab claw instead, etc. Here's how to mount your "jaw" over an actor's head, or to the end of your actor's arm, etc.

"Finger" mechanisms 

• demo 3 distinct construction styles
• Here's how your "fingers" could be retractable snake fangs. Or make giant-sized fingers for crab legs. Or add webbing for bat wings.

"Snake tail" mechanisms

• demo 3 distinct construction styles
• Here's how your "tail" can be tentacle arms. Here's how a small version can be a tongue. 

Part Two: Putting It All Together

I also would like to see newer methods of using 3d printers in various ways for production. Obviously for props it's very useful.  But for use in making mechs, using it to print sculps or printing the mold directly, and some discussion of materials and how they interact.  What will adhere to what and what will release from what.

I would like the recipe for making a realistic skin tone when casting silicone props and masks.
