Special effects (SFX) Special effects (SFX)

  • Creating Realistic Skin Textures:
    • In special effects (SFX) makeup and prosthetics, flocking fibres are mixed into silicone to mimic the subtle variations in skin tone and texture.
    • Real skin has a "mottled" appearance, with variations in colour and texture. Flocking helps to recreate this by adding small specks of colour and a slight texture to the silicone.
    • This is very important for making prosthetic appliances look realistic on film, or in theatrical productions.

 

  • Adding Colour Intrinsically:
    • Flocking fibres, which come in various colours, are used to add colour "intrinsically" to silicone. This means the colour is mixed throughout the silicone, rather than just applied to the surface.
    • This technique creates a more natural-looking colour, as it appears to come from within the material itself.

 

  • Applications:
    • SFX Makeup: Creating realistic skin for prosthetics, wounds, and other special effects.   
    • Doll Making: Recreating realistic skin tones and textures for dolls.
    • Moulding and Casting: Adding textured effects to silicone moulds and castings.
