MAKING A CUT

To create an 'open wound', the Derma Wax construction has to be 'cut open' with the sharp side of a Derma Wax spatula.

Tip: Let the model (especially if it is a child) feel in advance that the Derma Wax Spatula is not really sharp, to prevent a shock reaction when making the cut.

Lubricate the tip of the spatula with a little bit of Cleansing Cream. This will allow the spatula to slide more easily through the Derma Wax, preventing it from sticking to the spatula. Hold the Derma Wax Spatula slantwise on the skin when cutting so that the spatula does not feel too sharp for the model.

COLOURING

Colour the bottom of the wound with Grimas Water Make-up 101 and brush IMP6, to suggest depth in the wound.

Then colour the sides on the inside of the wound with Grimas Water Make-up 504 and brush IMP6.

FINISHING

In the end, finish the wound with Grimas Filmblood. There are different shades of Filmblood: from light red (oxygen-rich blood) to dark red (oxygen-poor blood). You can apply it directly from the bottle.

Use a stubble sponge or a tissue to spread the blood around the wound.
