Hey all, I was just thinking When I do Paper Mache I usually use a Bucky Skull like I see most of you do. The only thing is I like to take the mache off the skull when its dry that way I have Mache copys of skulls and still have the original Bucky to make more mache projects with. One Teqnique that I found along time ago that I wanted to throw out to you guys is "Coating the skull First in Tin Foil" This adds some strength to the mache and overall prop. I ususally add the foil in one or two big sections to cover the whole skull and work the foil into the details of the skull with differnt objects like a pencil eraser or pen cap to smooth it out. This acts as an awesome release agent for bucky skulls because the mache drys on top of the foil leaving nothing to stick to the skull. That said the only thing I havent been able to master in good detail with Mache is Bucky Teeth. Does anyone have any ideas how detailed teeth can be made with mache or other products to fit paper mache skulls? later all :jol:
