@@MisterjimmyFXC ya because the I try'd use just straight up acrylic no mixture of any thing but now I know what I did wrong my paint from my mask was cracking
Thank you so much for this! As someone who has been a wrestler/artist for years this was so helpful when altering/making Wrestlers masks. 💀 I thought I had a good mix down before but I kept getting weird cloudiness in my colors and I am so glad I found this video
Hi Jimmy !! Thank you so much for this :) You made the video I was looking for a loooong time ! I still have some difficulty adjusting the dosage tho. I paint regular latex elf ears with this and I feel like sometimes it's too "watery" in a way ? Or maybe I'm using the wrong kind of latex. Mine is Latex Pro from Reschimica with a low viscosity.
hello, need suggestion. I need to do layering, but when i do the next layer, the paint (acrylic+latex) will peel off. do i need to wait until the paint completely dry? if yes,, I think it takes to much time. or any other way?? Thank you
Yup u sure can.. If it doesn't spray good.. Just add a little more water and if to thin add a little more latex... Remember it dries darker the it looks
Thanks for uploading ! Very helpful ! What mixture/ratio would you suggest for a wash (low amount of pigments/high amount of liquid ) ? Thanks in advance !
Just a low amount of latex and a high amount of water.. and i spray a area then wipe away .. but if it gets to heavy use Mineral spirits to take some more off
Is it common to have to use a lot of paint? I can't seem to get a medium green. Too much white, seems like it stays mint green. I've even thrown brown in there and nothing happened.lol
Hey, Jimmy! I know this is an older video so I hope you're able to comment back. If not, just know I love your videos as you are a great teacher and they are very helpful. I had a question based on the concept of painting with latex. There was a video I saw recently of an artist/animator making a stop motion puppet. (Here at about the 6min mark ruclips.net/video/Cqcn1_aIU1c/видео.htmlsi=i3WC0AdESgg8kf6W) He began to paint the outside of the armature a skin toned latex paint and it got me wondering if it would be possible to paint action figures and ball jointed dolls with latex paint to hide the joints. And if the mixture you're using in this video would be a good option for what I'm looking for. Any insight on that would be great! Thank you again and hope to see more from you soon!
What do you recommend for a simple colour change? I’ve made an original Pennywise wig by butchering a full red Afro wig and a skin toned bald cap. It looks ok but I need to paint the bald part white without ‘over-engineering’ the job as it’s only a small area and for single use. Cheers
Omg, thank you so much video. i have been looking for something like this forever to finish my college project! Can i use this techinic on a latex garment? for example on the latex corset i am making? and will the flex gloss work on the garment too? Thank you so much!
Great video! If I buy mask making latex like RD 407 and it is thick, should I mix it with a little distilled water to make it thinner and then use the 1/3 formula of paint, latex, water? Thanks.
Do you see tiny cracks when you pinch the paint after it dries? Sometimes I do and have to mix in more latex than 1/3. Still trying for a formula that works and doesn't crack or clump up. TBH I liked rubber cement paint better. No clumping and plenty of flex.
Not sure on that.. not my method choice but tested on RUclips has a video on it that may answer that question here's the link ruclips.net/video/jQdcaBEOVI8/видео.html
So I just want to be sure that I’m understanding you. You talked about latex paint in the beginning, but then you talked about latex towards the middle to the end. So when you were referring to latex, you were referring to latex paint?
In the video we are making latex paint for painting mask.. I use a receipe of 1/3 acrylic paint, 1/3 casting latex, 1/3 distilled water.. u can also use the formula of 1/3 latex interior house paint, 1/3 casting latex, 1/3 distilled water
Thanks for the simplest how to do video on how to mix your paints for mask airbrushing!
Glad it was helpful!

Thank you, I’ve looking for this a long time.
Glad i could help
great tip! any idea if this made up paint would stick well with dried up Latex+Acrylic+silicone consisting paintable caulk ?
I would try model car paints on that ... u can dilute with thinner for air brush
@@MisterjimmyFXC Thanks for the suggestion.. might try that..

Yea u need a thicker latex.. u can order small amounts from monstermakers.com u want the RD407 latex
awesome! have you done any stress tests with this method? does it crack?
It will not crack... adding the latex makes it stretch with the mask

Great info!!!
Need to paint my baldcap white it's like a thick rubber/latex i believe it will be one time use what's best to use for paint?
What do do you use to add blood to.your latex mask??
I don't add blood... I paint that on later on... And I use PaleNightproductoins, perma blood
Can this stuff run through a Dual Action Gravity Fed Airbrush?
Yup u sure can.. If it doesn't spray good.. Just add a little more water and if to thin add a little more latex... Remember it dries darker the it looks
How do you achieve the charred effect on a mask ?
Take Cotton Balls and brush on pieces in the areas you want “charred” with mask making latex or liquid latex until those areas are smooth.
Add coffee grains to latex, then paint it on... Base in what color or colors u want and then Stipple the black on top
Thanks for uploading ! Very helpful ! What mixture/ratio would you suggest for a wash (low amount of pigments/high amount of liquid ) ? Thanks in advance !
Just a low amount of latex and a high amount of water.. and i spray a area then wipe away .. but if it gets to heavy use Mineral spirits to take some more off
Misterjimmy FXC Thanks, man ! Appreciate it ! Regards !
How long should I wait between painting layers?
As long as it's dry... U can paint I keep a hair dryer on hand....
Is it common to have to use a lot of paint? I can't seem to get a medium green. Too much white, seems like it stays mint green. I've even thrown brown in there and nothing happened.lol
Try starting with a gray or brown as starter

Either I thicker version of this method or some plaid FX paint from hobby lobby right next to there foam
Omg, thank you so much video. i have been looking for something like this forever to finish my college project! Can i use this techinic on a latex garment? for example on the latex corset i am making? and will the flex gloss work on the garment too? Thank you so much!
Sorry for the late replay but yes it would
Would you know how I can water down my Liquid Latex? The brand I bought came too thick in the bottle.
Ammonia
Ammonia is what they use in latex so more u add the thinner it gets...
Great video! If I buy mask making latex like RD 407 and it is thick, should I mix it with a little distilled water to make it thinner and then use the 1/3 formula of paint, latex, water? Thanks.
Nope just use 1/3 method if u need it thinner then as a little more water, or if u meed thicker use a little less
@@MisterjimmyFXC Thank you!
are the rd407 and the smaller bottles of liquid latex advertised for skin patches interchangeable for latex ingredient?
Yea RD 407 is the same latex as casting latex I use
Can you use any acrylic paint to mix ?
Yup sure can
I’m having a real hard time making a blue paint everytime I try and make some the blue always turns to a light blue what should I do ?
When u mix the colors it looks lighter untill it dries... It should dry same color of blue paint u used
If not had a small tad of black to darken
@@MisterjimmyFXC Thankyou for the feedback and add dark before I mix with latex and water ?
Hello are you accepting custom order worldwide i need latext mask .. can you make it for me
Yes sir I ship any where
Do you see tiny cracks when you pinch the paint after it dries? Sometimes I do and have to mix in more latex than 1/3. Still trying for a formula that works and doesn't crack or clump up. TBH I liked rubber cement paint better. No clumping and plenty of flex.
Got any recommendations on rubber cement paint like what brands or best places to get it
@@nicholash1691 I mixed my own. I use rubber cement and oil paint for the pigment. Mineral spirits to thin it out. You can also use naphtha.
Not sure on that.. not my method choice but tested on RUclips has a video on it that may answer that question here's the link ruclips.net/video/jQdcaBEOVI8/видео.html
And yea its all personal preference . All methods have there pros and cons
Does it ever crack when using the acrylic?
Nope never have any cracking issues as long as I use the 1/3 method
What type of Latex do I use to mix my Acrylic Paint?
I use the same casting latex I use to make the mask
@@MisterjimmyFXC Thanks
we don't have casting latex here :( is latex paint good to use for latex mask?
Use what ever latex you use for the mask
So I just want to be sure that I’m understanding you. You talked about latex paint in the beginning, but then you talked about latex towards the middle to the end. So when you were referring to latex, you were referring to latex paint?
In the video we are making latex paint for painting mask.. I use a receipe of
1/3 acrylic paint, 1/3 casting latex, 1/3 distilled water.. u can also use the formula of 1/3 latex interior house paint, 1/3 casting latex, 1/3 distilled water
I Hope that cleared it up
@@MisterjimmyFXC, yes it did. Thank you.
Put airsoft bbs in your paint bottles
Stop slamming those bottles. Very annoying
I shall slam lighter next time lol
