It peeled right off in one piece. No problem

That is so awesome!
I've got a question about it, though. Has anyone tried using oatmeal on a prop? It looks so realistic that I think it would make a great effect on a zombie prop. Would it mold/rot or would it last indefinitely?

I would think that using paper punch circles from heavy paper instead of oatmeal, you may need to soak and dry to get an oatmeal consistency

You could also use scraps of dried latex instead of oatmeal too.

Hmmmm....there's something to think about. I'll have to figure out which is easiest!

Just think texture and you'll come up with a ton of ideas like small bits of torn paper towel and such.

I wouldn't bend my brain over it too much. It's a really simple effect to create. Jump in and give it a try.

I have three after thoughts to add...

1) I don't think the oatmeal would mold or rot since it's sealed in latex. But don't quote me on that.

2) If you try this, the only prep you need to do before hand is to shave the area that is to have the latex applied to. You'd be surprised how unseen downy hair loves to attach itself to latex LOL

and...

3) You'll notice in the pics that the unpainted edges of the latex are a bit shiny, You can dust that with facial compact powder and the shine disappears.

Acrylic. I actually used my airbrush paints but any acrylic would work.
