Not only vampires on Halloween !
by Stefano on Nov.09, 2011, during Special Effects, Events
..old, during the month of October because the demands of cosmetic dental implants have multiplied, and specifically:
Teeth zombies:
As you can see from the photo of the model, different from that specified in tutorial, to make these prostheses I just shaping the tips of the teeth existing mold. The result was a faster implementation and a much thinner implants, that if one side makes it more fragile and delicate, the other makes it even more comfortable and more subtle.
The prosthesis is double, because it was made for the upper jaw for the lower, maintaining a good chance of closing the mandibular.
It should be noted that increases the realism by adding small details of color and a good polishing.
Vampire teeth:
A small variation on the classic theme of 'vampire teeth'.. I reached the second incisors as well as the canines, and did a little’ sull'attaccatura top of the central incisors to make them bad. The root of the canine was discovered and moved higher up to simulate a greater length of the tooth.
Since the realization we are not bound by specific design, every time you create something new and different, thus adapting the model to the trends of the moment or to a specific request, as in the case of replicas for imitators, cosplayers, etc..
Cosmetic prostheses real:
These false teeth’ have good coverage of aesthetic realism used to make a more pleasing smile that present a problem ugly (Attention: This is NOT a medical implant / but a simple cosmetic dental prostheses. It is therefore intended as temporary cover for use in a movie set, for cosplay, or in the theater, for the time necessary to acting / role of the).
Not create any difficulties in speech but NOT can be used for food and eating / o bere, sleep.
Membership in the mouth is guaranteed by the bill, that is being made on the calculated, fits perfectly with the underlying tooth, without requiring the need for glues or other fastening devices. It is sufficient to remove it gently pull it down. This is cleaned by washing with an antibacterial soap is not colored or neutral color and a mouthwash that contains no alcohol (without letting in immersion) and let it air dry then.
The teeth of the Lola

After watching the video, kindly, our Memole posted Teeth on youtube that I realized, Lola, famous Drag Queen of the Art Club of Madame Sisi and friend for a long time, thought it could not be outdone. Of course, with some small change.
To descend even more into the character it, not at all interested in two sharp fangs as a vampire, but a beautiful arch of white teeth and sparkling, drittissimi, you can put on and off with ease, and without impediment during speech.
So, Once the cast taken, I went to work.
Following step by step the same steps described in the tutorial of vampire teeth, I made the model, mold and positive for both arches, with particular attention that the closure would remain good, namely, that the mouth is closed under the denture (jaw) adasse not to interfere with the upper teeth (jaw).
Here are some photos of the stages of construction.

The mark must be decisive and firm, starting off from the edges of the mouth to get thin and faded face up to the half way line.
E’ important to taking a nose-shaped inverted triangle, the upper lip and a double curve, typical facial feline. In the rest of the face I made a trick based on triangles and curves, to remember a bit’ the stripes of the coat brindle.
In this case, to remember the effect of the hair, I left the poorly defined bodi, created with many small irregular pennellatine.
Finally I marked with a white nose and chin more cargo, I called contornadoli black eyes and stretching a bit’ out, and I scored a mustache with many small dots blacks.
Another effect you can give with sponge (little!) gray / black part of the face remained between the white stripes; This will help to create chiaroscuro effects and make the most basic trick of living.
Accessories such as ear, vampire teeth and colored contact lenses with the eye of the cat will make the mask even more attractive ! =)

- colors for the face-based water that you can find stores that sell items for the carnival, or supermarkets
- a sponge triangular lattice, which is sometimes also provided with the colors.
- accessories to enrich the trick that you have chosen, as false eyelashes, colored wigs and glitter.
After cleaning the face, preferably with a makeup remover, we can start to play with the white pencil drawing that we have chosen. The white pencil will be easier to remove than black and not make a mess in the case of corrections.
If you want a little manual or simply to take the first, you can print and cut out one of the designs you find below, and play along the edges.
It is therefore necessary that the picture occupies the entire face, but rather that it maintains the proportions.
Once we are happy with what we have done, using the black pencil, with a sudden strong and determined, and disclose it outlines the basic design of the mask.
Then, wetting the sponge first and passing it on waffles color, Then inside of the lines marked with a pencil, go to color patterned our design.
All done ? Tigrotto and gattino.. we are ready to quit !
