I came back to Pittsburgh and over the past few weeks I have transformed the plaster casts into latex and foam heads. I started this process by molding the plaster positives with silicone and casting clay reproductions of the plaster casts. I then sculpted traumatic injuries onto these clay heads. At this point David approved the sculpts, and he said I could make a plaster mold of the clay heads. I poured latex into these plaster molds and an expanding foam into the latex before it is pulled out of the plaster molds. So, after lots of back and forth from mold to cast to mold to cast… I have a latex copy of the actors in the show with their injuries. Now I am going to paint the heads, and then I will apply wigs, facial hair, eyebrows, and eyelashes.
