More about the items:

Liquid latex is specified to contain 60.5% rubber solids as standard. It is widely used for brushing or dipping, general FX work, movie prop construction, and costuming.

Latex Pigments should be added to Liquid Latex at 5%. This kit includes TWO of seven colours available, each is 100g – you will receive only TWO colours of your choice. Colours available are: Black, Brown, Red, Green, Yellow, White, and Blue. Please specify which colours you would like when you order, otherwise you will receive random colours.

Klean Klay is a non-drying, non-hardening, sulphur-free oil based modelling clay for a variety of applications. It is non-toxic, sanitary, and odourless. Klean Klay is easy to handle and work with and remains hand-pliable at room temperature. Klean Klay keeps its smooth, firm consistency and retains the shape into which it is moulded.

Klean Klay also comes in SOFT and FIRM. If you want either of these please let us know when you order – otherwise you will get REGULAR. Please note that the colour of the clay may vary (‘Natural’ is pictured), if you have specific colour requirements please check availability with us before ordering.

Sculpting tools are provided as a set of six tools, each is 8” / 20cm long and has a different shaped loop at each end for clay sculpting.

Herculite 2 is a hard casting plaster, for general casting, mould making, FX work, movie prop construction, costuming and model making. Herculite 2 should be mixed with water at a ratio of 100 plaster to 42 water.

Polystyrene Mannequin Heads have bases. This means they are great for displaying hats or helmets, or to use as a sculpting armature to stick clay all over during your custom helmet or mask sculpt project.

Cotton Scrim is suitable for reinforcing plaster structures such as mould support casing and negative moulds made from hard plasters.

Mask Hair comes in long pre-packed locks – each one is over two metres long and weighs over 400g. The hair inside is coiled up in what appears to be one continuous length – so you can open one end and  pull it out without it getting tangled. It comes out with a curl to it, but it appears that it can be straightened by stretching it out and steaming it, although you’ll have to experiment for the desired results. Please choose from Black, Brown, Yellow, Grey, White, or Auburn when you order.
