Does anyone know how to achieve this effect?

Hello! This year, I’m going as Michael Myers for Halloween. I’ve done him before in the past and I’ve always worn a black spandex mask to give myself the blackest eyes… the devils eyes…

But this year, I wanna change it up a bit. I want to see and have my eyes be partially seen through the mask. But I wanna add his “dead eye” as seen in the photo. I’ve tried it a while ago to no avail. Any idea on how I can create the droopy eyelid effect? Thank you!

Hello, I am a complete noob at sfx, but id love to try and recreate this look (one of the easier ones faces) for halloween. I just saw the movie and I feel like this can be a nice quick DIY costume but like I said I dont know how to make fake scars and stuff. Any recommendations for a beginner. Thank you!

Does red + brown + black acrylic paint dry sticky on shirts? (Or any better DIY permanent fake blood hacks?)

Help me with my Darth Maul Halloween outfit, please. Best adhesive for attaching EVA foam horns to a Kryolan Glatzan bald cap?

1 Upvotes

I'm making a Darth Maul costume for Halloween and could use some advice from anyone experienced with bald caps and prosthetics.

I've bought a Kryolan Glatzan bald cap and I'm considering making the horns from lightweight EVA foam.

My main concern is finding an adhesive that will securely bond EVA foam to Glatzan without damaging the cap.

I've already purchased Kryolan Mastix Spirit Gum for attaching the bald cap to my skin, but I'm unsure whether it would be suitable for attaching the horns themselves.

I've also considered Pros-Aide, although I haven't been able to confirm whether it works reliably with this particular combination of materials.

Has anyone successfully attached EVA foam prosthetics to a Glatzan bald cap? Would you suggest another prosthetic / adhesive system?

Many thanks for anyone who can help.
