Three thousand miles and a week later, the painted
suit hangs in the Evil Dead II makeup lab. After using Dick
Smith's PA-X formula of Pros-Aide and Liquitex acrylic paints as a
base, I hand-paint and airbrush washes of watercolor and thinned
PA-X. | |
I give the split-open areas a wetter look by coating
the painted washes with Phlex-glue. |

|
Henrietta's prepainted foam latex appliances rest on
forms of Ted's face. | |
With baldcap in place, Ted has his upper lip preglued
with Dow 355 medical adhesive, then powdered. | |
|
|
The preglued upper lip is applied, followed by the
nose and wraparound jowl piece.
| |
All the face appliances are in place except for
the chin. At this point, Ted has lunch while I prepare the wig and
Bob Kurtzman readies the arm appliances and slip-on latex feet. No
need for Odor-Eaters. | |
