Got a pretty disturbing photoshoot scheduled for early September with Dstar Photography at the stunning Reign of Terror Haunted House. I'm super excited!
Here's the sculpt of my main prosthetic for the shoot, originally inspired by the Black Dahlia.
(I feel weird putting "inspired", as if the Black Dahlia was some wonderful thing. What happened to that woman is absolutely horrible, and I pray whoever did that is rotting in hell. I just want to try and stop all those obnoxious "why so serious?" comments.)
The end product will have stitches. So that's why there's all those holes.

What is the Black Dalilah all about? Just wondering; me being an absolute chicken, I'm too scared to google it.

She was the victim of a brutal (and very famous) murder in the 40's. Her face was cut from ear to ear - Glasgow smile - and her body was severed at the waist. The murder was never solved.
It really is quite sickening what happened to her, but what makes it worse was the media coverage of it at the time and how it was turned into just some story, a 'whodunnit' if you will.

I know the story. I heard that Elizabeth Short's teeth was in a severe state of decay before she died and she often used candle wax to fill the cavities in her teeth.

Good work as always; if you can prepare something to go around your middle to simulate the rest of her, I'd be really impressed.
