Poupee Latex new face? Make up her as you like.
Re: Poupee Latex new face? Make up her as you like.
After removing her original head, I put a plastic container (about 10cm diameter)
In order to make her to keep inflated even when she has no head, I must make air intake valve on the container.
When it is completed, she is in the state of inflation with no head.
Then it was possible to put a hair mannequin (or others) on.
Modifying the hair mannequin's mouth to oral-able, required time and effort considerably.
But I've gotten sufficient results.
Since there are some photographs, let me check and arrange and upload in a few days.
Thanks

To make Poupee's head exchangeable, I put a plastic container for mounting.
And modified a hair mannequin for oral capable.
Sorry pics are not ready yet.
Thanks

Re: Poupee Latex new face? Make up her as you like.
another question i had and hope you have pics of is what you used to reshape the outter part and color it of the mouth area??
Re: Poupee Latex new face? Make up her as you like.
This time, I'll show the cutting process of mouth portion.
Though the head in this pic is neck-less, in real work, you should use ordinary hair mannequin with neck.
A banana in the photograph is placed for checking the point where the sleeve should be put to.
I'll add explanations if needed afterwards.
Picts of making a sleeve will be uploaded next time.
Thanks

Re: Poupee Latex new face? Make up her as you like.
great work .
Re: Poupee Latex new face? Make up her as you like.
This time,
expand the width of mouth erea.
Then coat inside in order to prevent dust powder.
reinforce the lip around before put a sleeve.
About how to coloring.
Mix the oil paint to the sealant use for final work.
Flesh color arises in mixture of orange and white.
Sleeve will come next.
Thanks

Re: Poupee Latex new face? Make up her as you like.
Please see the "Making a sleeve".
These are main points.
1,a banana is used instead of a mold.
2,strengthen with panty hose so that it may not be torn by over expanding. (B-3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10)
3,finally the sleeve is used inside out. (B-15,16,17)
4,it's desirable for the sleeve exactly no air(space) inside. (B23,,,,,,,,36)
5,I think it's better open the end side for cleaning. (later)
6,put kitchen lap to where not to be paste with.
7,it takes 24 hours to cure completely.
8,confirm whether there is water leaks or not.(must before cut the end)
And the final, "Attach to her mouth" will be uploaded next.
Thanks

Hi, ValleyOfTheDolls
Hi, Joe Bin
Thank you for your comments.
Well, today is the final stage.
<<<Notes>>>
1,Sealant solidifies with humidity.
Since the surface will be hardened in about 20 minutes if it takes out from a container, please do work less than 15minutes.
If I touch it with wet cloth, it will solidify early still more.
2,for coloring, I used oil paint.
such as "chapel rose","beige","yellow ochre","permanent white".
oil paints are usually hard to dry.
it's convenient.
because, once it was mixed to sealant, it will be solidified in 20 minutes, but if I kept the rest of oil paint mix, I could add any color to the mix and use for second try.
By actual work,
in order to get similar color,
first I mixed oil paint mix moderately and mixed with sealant and plaster(paint to her mouth).
I saw the result, and add any color to existing oil paint mix (not the one with sealant).
I repeated 3-4 times until I felt the job good.
Fine

Re: Poupee Latex new face? Make up her as you like.
but a great job !!!
Re: Poupee Latex new face? Make up her as you like.
Sealant is diluted with thinner called hexane. wiki>link>>>
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexane
By applying the thinner, sealant becomes something like oatmeal (or like liquid of course). I've painted it to her mouth using paintbrush.
But I could not get so smooth surface. (this pic of another head shows that for example)
BTW. Since all of hair mannequin have planted human hair, you can do brushing and shampoo.
Also when washing her mouth, it does not separate like a wig, or no need removing.
Thanks
