The first step was to work out the specifics of what was needed for the makeup. We worked it out to be a facial piece covering the nose and upper half of the face and the two ears. We then lifecasted our model using the traditional alginate methodology. We created a full face cast and two ears for the separate prosthetics. I took lead on the ears as this was a new technique to us, we cut out plastic cups and placed these around the ears and poured the alginate. This gave us an accurate mould of each ear. Although one was held off centre it meant that the ear support was not as great as it could have been. We then casted these in plaster for the budget and timing, however one broke upon removal from the mould, it was a clean break and therefore could be fixed. Once these were created we each blocked out the shape of the other piece. I therefore blocked out the shape of the face piece, creating the fundamental structure and the edges making sure that the piece would fit well to the model. After completion of this stage we detailed the other, therefore I created the detail on the ears. I had to alter the structure of the inital shape as it was not suitable and the ears were different sizes. Once sculpted we moulded the pieces using Tinsil Silicone as this would pick up the detail and create a strong mould for casting. The ears proved difficult to mould, however we were successful. One of the ears, plaster base broke whilst moulding, into many pieces. Some of these segments were lost, I therefore had to rebuild the ear as best as I could with the remaining pieces and some monster clay. This worked well to create the ear prosthetics. We ran the pieces in gelatin due to time constraints and budget. These took a few attempts to create a sucessful piece, however I got the edges very thin eventually. I then proceeded to pre paint the piece using the Krystian Mallet Illustrator palette, once complete I punched hair into the ear to create more realism.
