It’s based οn a play οn words * “sick and tired” * where both рartners dress in рyjamas.

Mаny, but not аll producers of sеxy costumes have chοsen to offer sеxy costumes for full figured women аnd one can only guess why.

Monster Makeup
This video again is a reminder of the genious of Lon Chaney. It also mentions Dick Smith, who auhored a one time magazine named ‘Monster Makep’, as I recall, in the mid-1960’s. My copy was destroyed in a fire in 1989 and have been looking for a copy (at a reasonble price) since then. That magazine gave numerous tips on how an average person could do a credible werewolf or vampire and numerous others.
The products to work with and from are improved today, but the techniques are much the same.
These movie monster makeup artists are just that…artists. For more on makeup, theatrical and masquerade costumes, visit us again.

A Visit to a Monster Makeup/Accessories Factory
Perhaps you are getting an understanding of how deep the ‘costume’ business goes with the last several posts. Here is another video, this time a trip to a factory that makes props, accessories and masks for the monster movie industry. ’Monster’ defined as alien or at variance in one way or another to our normal view of what is human.
Stage productions and movies are great, but where would they be without the artists and technicians behind them?

Movie Makeup…It’s Evolution
I came across this video about one of the old masters of makeup in the 30’s and 40’s.
Baked foam rubber….I never heard that one before, but then again, it was before my time. I am curious as to what he meant by ‘foam rubber’. It is what we consider foam rubber today or something else?
My first experience with ‘rubber’ masks was ordering a 50 gallon drum of latex and a 5 gallon drum of a cataylist to build my own masks and other prosthtics. Every once in a while, I think maybe I’ll try that again. The drawback? You can get a LOT of masks out of 55 gallons of latex products (remember the math 50+5), and I would only want to make a few dozen masks.

Lon Chaney, The Man Behind the Makeup
I’ve always been fascinated by Lon Chaney, Sr. and his ability to create great movie ‘monsters’ without all the modern latex and other synthetic prosthetics. This video speaks of Chaney’s skills and a little on how he achieved his results. I especially liked the mockup of his own face.
BTW, Chaney had a son, Lon Jr., who was a character actor in his own right.
In the 1950’s, Don Post Studios created the best rubber masks that I have ever seen, using what appeared to be Chaney’s version of some of his characters (Phantom, Hunchback). Seems they cost a fortune for the times…maybe retailing around $50.

Man of 1000 Faces
Lon Chaney was a master of makeup in the silent and early movies. In this video you’ll see a 3 minute crash course in what Lon Chaney did with real makeup. I love prosthetics and the realistic results you get from them, but can you image this being done with nose putty and grease paint?
Over the next few days, hopefully we can find a few videos on how to makeup some of those early movie characters.

Make Your Own Fangs
How does this video fit into the theme of this site? Simple, Can you imagine making fangs or some other type of ugly teeth for your next Halloween party? Converting this concept into fangs or decaying teeth might take a little creativity and imagination, but the end result should be fang-tastic.
Did I see a bottle of Gorilla Glue in this video? Did he actually use Gorilla Glue to hold his newly made teeth in? No wonder his teeth stay in for days. This is highly NOT recommended as the means of affixing these fake teeth. If you pursue this, I suggest using Dentucreme or some other product that is made specifically to affix dentures.
What I did like about this video, however, was how he formed the teeth to his own liking, and the natural coloration of those teeth. CLICK HERE for more on masquerade and theatrical costumes.

Make It Yourself Costume Tips
Make a list. Check it twice. Find out whose naughty or…..opps….that last part doesn’t pertain to this video.
This young lady explains everything you need to start sewing your own Halloween / theatrical costume. There are numerous elements to preparing a do-it-yourself costume, but they are all pretty easy to do.
Sorry, she didn’t get into the sewing process itself, but that might have taken a few hours longer. (:>)
Also, for me, the background music was a little distracting. Hope it isn’t for you.
