+TimedropStudios I did the same thing. Plus, the left over blood works great as ink for the pages. A little time consuming to hand draw all of the pages, but that little extra effort pays off. It just looks so freaking awesome.

One thing that could have helped this is if you heated up the cling wrap so it contracted and shrank, making a cool leathery burn texture. It's a technique used by haunters called corpsing, because it's what the use to quickly add rotting flesh to plastic skeletons.

Just for future reference when using liquid latex, first the latex needs to be applied to a solid non stick surface second Ten layers is a lot better than three. And third when peeling up latex always use baby powder so it doesn't stick to itself. Hope that helps anyone. By the way, a glass cake pan works best to make a sheet of latex.

@@cyn_na_mini Sure, first peel up the edge of the appliance then sprinkle some baby powder along the underside, keep peeling and adding baby powder until the latex sheet is completely removed from the glass surface. Remember to always test a small portion of your actors skin like the inside of their wrist, if you see a rash or hives remove the appliance immediately. An EPI pen should relieve the symptoms so keep that in mind. My sister is severely allergic to latex so I for one know how serious a latex allergy can be. Also never apply layers of latex to an area of your body such as your head, eyebrows, scalp, arms or legs, especially if your a hairy guy like me I found that out the hard way lol!😂 also be sure to apply enough layers of latex so that when you peel up the appliance it doesn’t tear, it will be a waste of time and materials and it will be tough to repair, about ten to thirteen layers should be enough for a book cover.

The cling-film was a bad choice.. The rest of it sort of works, but its clearly covered in kitchen plastic..

Complaining Lovecraft fans: You're right, but I mean come on, it's a pretty petty thing to complain about. Don't get me wrong, I love Lovecraft as much as the next guy, but this is clearly the Necronomicon from The Evil Dead. Which do you think has more cultural significance, and you know, means more to more people? If they had said the Necronomicon from "The Hound", no one would have a fucking clue what they're talking about.

The present may not be something we should disregard out of pettiness or close-mindedness, but ignorance and disrespect of the past isn't something to be celebrated.

Also, instead of latex you can mix white glue and water, then use tissue paper( must be white, un textured, and unprinted) to make a "toilet paper mache" covering after you've carved the face

.......if you paint on some of the liquid latex on the foam it would stiffen it up and give the feeling of old leather and unlike the surround wrap would not give the plastic feel and shin and be a bit more hard wearing and last longer o you would not have to repair or remake it after a while.

The Necronomicon is a fictional book of magic created by the horror writer H. P. Lovecraft. It is a Greek-sounding word commonly translated as "book of dead names".

If you use transparent powder while removing the latex it won't stick to itself.

Something to add to the idea, if you go for a sketchbook or something add drawings an other info into. Most of the DIY Props made or other idea's sketched into the book, option of normal as is type builds to maybe a spooky version of the builds placed into the book. Spooky info of the items to go with it maybe? Maybe a cartoonist version of the Necronomicon, making for a Toonnomicon of known or unknown characters with a how to draw book for help on drawing some of the outlines in to it.

I agree. The cling wrap was very in your face obvious. And the shine it produced, just didn't work for me. I think it would have been much better to take the extra time and effort and go with more layers of latex. Or.....paint a layer of latex over the cling wrap before painting. The best part of this build was the pages. That part turned out awesome. I hate to be negative about this build, but a kindergarten kid could have done better. These are better tutorials for this book available. I think I will check out more of them.

Groovy.

Cling wrap kinda ruined it. Some supersculpty or hardened bluetac would be bettee

this is way more complicated than it needs to be and doesn't even look that good :/ maybe skip all the foam and latex and plastic wrap and just use papermache?

Personally I’d scrap the foam idea entirely and sculpt the face out of tissue paper and watered down pva glue, pretty much like papier-mâché, with some hot glue for a bit added texture. Works out a lot cheaper and easier.

I did my necronomicon with cardboard for the cover, which was wrapped in tissue paper soaked in diluted whiteglue (aka paper mache) and just painted that with acrylic artists paint. That way i didn't needlessly destroy a book or need foam to build up the depth.

Does Dylan have her own channel? I enjoyed her as a host. There was something approachable about her that made the tutorial all the better. Also, I usually get really freaked out by septum piercings, but she really makes it work!

...It looks bad. Sorry, but that's horrible even for a first time prop maker. The book looks almost nothing like the one used in movies or show. Awful work.

i used HP Lovecraft inspired illustrations for my pages. i also used a thick cardboard for my book cover. then i got some brown fake leather material for the skin. i used hot glue for the shaping and scaring, put a little but of crafting foam over the cardboard then thicker foam around the eyes, nose and mouth for depth

I havent made props, but used foams and such for other things. By experimenting I discovered if you brush on automotive rubber undercoating it seals, protects, foam. Flexes without cracking and can be painted, unless you want flat black. Spraying out of the can can cause unevenness and runs, and waste. In spray into a can and brush a thin layer on. Stinky. Dries over night. Then paint or leave black. It wears well too. A $5 can will cover a lot of foam. Give it a try. Actually, walmart has rustoleum for $2.50 right now. Oct 2017

I think this looks really neat, I've actually heard of the plastic wrap method to make this and sure you could have made it from other materials and made it look nicer but guys its called DIY, costumers and people who watch these videos with not a lot of cash to spend. I saw someone suggest using real leather, when I had to get leather for my Princess Leia belt it was on sale and still cost me roughly $90 for a small section I couldn't imagine spending that much for a prop that small. really like how this turned out!

since fallout 4 is coming out you should make a pipboy

The one from the series looks the best

looks like a fun project quite a few things I can make use of. thanks for the share.

You could have applied the liquid latex directly to the foam over multiple layers. I've made a "human skin butchers apron" using this type of foam and liquid latex brushed over it. Not only would you not have wasted a ton of latex, but as the latex dries, it tightens and creates skin like wrinkles. That cling wrap looked horrible

I'm no prop expert, but I would think simply gluing some 6mm EVA foam to the cover of a book and using a dremel to carve out the details would've been way easier... you could even just brush the latex on afterwards if you wanted that effect 🤷‍♂

Same till after foam, used multiple plastic layers the used a dryer to heat it to make it tighten up and forced it in the eye, mouth and edges. Then made small cuts for design texture. Smooth and solid cover.

I love those movies And the tv show is amazing
