Shouldn't they be making their own? I know I do...The commercially available ones are generally crap unless you'll be paying top dollar. The other thing you'll have a problem with the latex caps that most places sell are quite thick on the edges and are a bugger to blend in convincingly...It's why I use Baldiez and Super Baldiez for any bald caps I use. They could do a bog standard stipple over a head form with latex to get a reasonable cap with a thin edge. You could look at amazon uk or ebay as you can get plastic bald cap <best as you can bled the edges away with IPA and they blend right into the skin> biggest issue is I doubt you'll get a decent one delivered in time. Try Charles fox in London http://www.charlesfox.co.uk/ but you'll be paying about £20 to £30 for a single cap. Oh and if you're trying to emulate pin head, I don't think using a simple bald cap and not a prosthetic piece will be good enough to prevent the pins/nails from flopping about.

and a damn fine one you are too. You'll always find that this time of year you'll be havinbg difficulty finding anything like a bald cap mate with halloween being round the corner. It's why I bought a plastic head form from charles fox, means if I need bald caps for whatever reason I just run some baliez through the old airbrush and it's done...It's one of the curses of having to wear too many hats when making short films, you get to be a dab hand at most things make up related |

Martin, I wish you were doing the SFX makeup for this, I know we would get something good. Alas I was brought into this shoot by another photographer who is published, thinking everyone was the top of their game. Thanks for the info, I really appreciate your help, you are right, stuff like bald caps should of been made or brought way before. This shoot has been planned 3 months ago. |

For a top makup artist, what you said would happen did. I got some good shots but had to do some serious photoshop work. The chatterer was brilliant, pinhead and the rest were not so good. Edited by TonyRB, Nov 14 2011, 06:24 PM.
