GEORGE BUSH (JOHN MORGAN) BECOMES DONALD TRUMP |
|
Hydrocal life cast of George Bush look-a-like John Morgan |
 |
|
Donald Trump sculpt on John Morgan's lifecast.
John's face differs from Donald Trumps face in m any ways. Most notably
around the eyes. John's afce was narrower than Trumps in most areas which
allowed me to augment his features into Trumps with clay. His eyes however
different and would need to be changed through the actor himself.
Fortunately John was an experienced character actor and would be able to accommodate
this.

Clay up for case mold (jacket mold)
Keys designed without locking undercuts to allow for removal of case while leaving the silicone
negative during
opening. |
  |
| Fabrication of the Hydrocal case mold.
This case or jacket mold was designed to slide off of the silicone
during removal so that the silicone negative mold could be peeled away
from the appliance.
|
  |
| Platinum silicone negative poured.
The silicone negative was made with a firm high shore silicone. The
case mold was a heavy plaster to allow and even pressure to
"cut" the appliance gel edges.
|
  |
| After releasing the positive and negative mold
with Murphy's oil soap and Ease brand spray release from Reynolds AM,
Water-melon liquid was airbrushed onto both the positive and negative as a
silicone encapsulent. Once dry Water-Melon Primer was airbrushed onto the
Encapsulent and allowed to dry. Then platinum silicone gel (Ecoflex Gel /
Reynolds AM) was tinted with Prosthetic Cosmetic RMG to match the actor, catalyzed and
poured into the mold. The mold was closed, clamped and the silicone
was allowed to cure. Once cured the mold was opened and the appliance was
ready. |
  |
| Having been encapsulated with Water-Melon the
appliance can be securely applied with Ethyl or Isopropyl alcohol. The
appliance was applied section by section. |
|
| Once
the alcohol is applied under the appliance section just press and hold the
appliance to let the alcohol activate the Water-Melon and bond to the skin
area. This is done for all sections of the appliance until the entire
appliance is secured. |
 |
| Then when the entire appliance body is
applied the edges are blended with the same ethyl or 99% isopropyl
alcohol. |
  |
| One great advantage of using Water-Melon
as an encapsulent is that you can use Alcohol foundation products and they
will bond to the appliance. We are using our own AGPC Airbrush Foundation to
extrinsically adjust the color of the appliance. |

|
With a wig and eyebrows made by hair expert Janet Balla the
"look" is complete and ready to be brought to life through the
impersonation talent of John Morgan. |
