Warning: This is a graphic video series and may not be appropriate for some viewers.
This is a cool new series of instructional videos brought to you by Eggehead FX. Making a wound out of clay and eventually taking a needle and thread and stitching it up.
This is our sixth and final video in our series on Making a Wound and Sewing it Up. We will be teaching you how to sew up your prosthetic wound. Yes this is very graphic in nature. It looks real and it is suppose to look as real as possible. My goal is to show you how to accomplish this effect if you want to use it in your movies or a movie you are working on. If you follow all the steps in this process (video 1 through 6) you should have a very nice prosthetic piece to accomplish this very cool effect. Sewing up a wound.

Ultra Cal Plaster: This plaster is a standard in the makeup effects industry. Please don't use plaster of paris. Plaster of paris is to weak and porous to be used for this type of mold making.
Ultra cal plaster can be purchased at most makeup effects web sites and often at foundry supply companies or pottery supply stores. You can even use ( Hydro-cal B11 ) White plaster if it is all you can find.
You can seal your clay with Crystal Clear spray paint. This will help when removing your clay from the plaster mold after molding.
