In this forth part in our series on Creating Custom Zombie Teeth we teach you how to make the gums on your acrylic teeth using clay and alginate to make an impression of the gums and then cast the gums in the pink powder/liquid. This method is for those artists like like to make the gums a specific way and would rather cast them then build them up as was taught in Part 3. If you follow the techniques you will be able to make gums that are strong and realistic. The techniques taught in this video can be use for a wide variety of applications including adding teeth to puppets or cable/radio controlled creatures.
