Fake cat fur - help!
Tue, 10 Oct 2006, 09:15 pmHi everyone,
I'm working on a short film at the moment where a female character needs to slowly transform into a cat. This requires applying fake hair to her arms, legs and face as well as making her hands and feet resemble cat's paws. Just wondering if anyone knows any good tricks for applying fake hair (using spirit gum, maybe?) or has any suggestions on how I can make this look as real as possible.
Thank you!

Cat Hair
Wed, 11 Oct 2006, 09:12 amThe traditional way to create and build up hair was using a muslin or similar base and creating the various pieces ie beard moustache etc in your case presumably various shaped sections to attach to the skin and glue the hair to the cloth with spirit gum and once the whole thing is dry attach it to the skin using spirit gum. It's been years since I did makeup that seriously though so I am sure the world has moved on. hope that helped a bit.
Is that all there is? Well if that's all there is my friend, then let's keep dancing.
