I'm looking for some ideas of stuff to do with liquid latex. I searched lists but there was only a few things.

Anyone have good ideas or, better yet, photos?

I have a bunch of ideas and I have pitched them to models that I'd like to work with. So far the five colors of liquid latex that I have are still unopened. Planning a trip to the DC area? smile

Are you thinking horror-themed? Fetish?  Erotica?  Or are you looking to use it as a "fashion"-type accessory?

Yes, the peeling seems to make the best pictures, mostly because of the model's expression at that exact time smile

Be sure to test a small spot on the models arm, some people are dangerously allergic to latex.

true. increased exposure to latex products is part of the problem. Most unsafe areas to have contact with liquid or preformed latex are the mucous membranes.

I agree with the peeling, it's fascinating stuff to play with. You can poke holes through it easily enough but it also has a good amount of stretch. It sticks to itself so you can play around with that aspect as well.

Do you have to use more than one coat to get it that thick?

I have done a nuber of shoots with the Liquid L. It all started to be better when I dumped the notion of thier material and used it as a foundation, a skin seal.

After a good coat I would have the models cure the material. Blocking skin areas exposed (head, feet and hands) I would spray paint the latex surface. I would use spay adhesive on surfaces and have that model or have another model apply items like cloth, reflective materials, glitter and such. Nasty industrial spray paint can be used on the sealed surface. Then, you can even add things like duct tape and other nasty things because it ison the latex and not the skin.

The vary large thing to present to the model is that after they have been in the latex 'suit' for several hours they wil;l sweat out all the stuff from pours. This gives them a realy great skin cleaning. Of course this gives them the need for a shower...which brings us to another cute trick, models LOVE this.

Prepping the hair. No matter the length the hair on their heads should get a heavy coating of shaving cream, like Gillett Foamy. This needs to be worked deep into the base of the skin on their heads. Now the magic material, tempera paint. Keep deeply in mind that it is WATER soluable. BUT, coat it heavily on the hair and let it dry. You can sculpt with this, add things like string, rope, cable ties to bundels of hair. If you just want that 'Big Boy' Hamburger look to the hair, called helmet head, well this will do. The colors are interchangable and you can use the glitter type or add glitter to the paint.

When done, into the shower and the foamy will keep the base moist while the tempera paint will begin disolving. The hair left behind will be clean of the paint and the hair will be thick and fullfrom the treatment of foamy.

I have done weird fun 'costumes' like this and sent models off after to Haloween parties where they are the weird and fun of the party. All they need is a change of clothing, and the use of a shower.

Yes, in the shower of the studio I put down plastic sheets to have the models rid themseves of the latex and then wash the tempera out of hair.

Unopened??  When I throw out a casting call or advertise for models elsewhere, I always have to turn people down because they come crawling out of the wood work.  I have done designs of super heros, dripped paint, zebras, stripes, polka dots, etc ... the ideas are truly endless.  The most important part is the body style.  Small and thin body types work pretty well.
