Hey cameramike. Interesting image. If you do retake the pic I would try to stand a little more relaxed. Your body is too rigid. Your arms are straight down with the elbows locked. Doesn't look natural. You most likely stood like that to make sure there was a good view of the knife. In my opinion the image would look better if you loosened up a bit.

Hey Mike...I got these for you off the halloween web site. Some are pretty simple.

Homemade Fake Blood

1 c. Karo Syrup
1 Tbsp Water
2 Tbsp Red Food Coloring
1 tsp Yellow Food Coloring

Mix together in a mixing bowl and you're done. Try adding blue or yellow for a different shade.


Chocolate Fake Blood

1/2 c. Warm Water
4 Tbsp Corn Syrup
1 Tbsp Powdered Cocoa
1 tsp Red Food Coloring

Blend the water and cocoa together and then add the rest of the ingredients. Let the concoction sit for awhile and skim the bubbles off of the top. Add a couple of drops of yellow food coloring if you're not satisfied.


Simple Fake Blood

Clear Corn Syrup
Red Food Coloring
Milk - Optional

However much fake blood is how much corn syrup you'll need. Pour it into a bowl and mix in some red food coloring. Add some blue if you like. Adding a small amount of milk will make the blood appear darker and thicker.


Realistic Recipe

2/3 c. Corn Syrup
1/3 c. Warm Water
5 Tbsp Corn Starch
4 tsp red food coloring
1 Tbsp Powdered Cocoa
2 drops of green or yellow food coloring

Mix the corn starch with the water in a large mixing bowl. Stir in the corn syrup. Add the food coloring slowly, checking for color.


Thanks to Andy for the following new recipes:

Gravy Blood

This is fairly new and I haven't had chance to test it properly but its looks GREAT!

Gravy Granules
Red Food Coloring
HOT Water

The directions are EASY, all you do is make the gravy up as you would normally but if you feel like it, you can make it a bit thicker, then add the red food coloring. It's up to you how much you add but too much will stain as it will not have been diluted enough.


Cheap 'N' Easy Blood

This is good for spidering and works like a dream:

Plain Flour
Water
Red Food Coloring
1 tsp. of Coffee

Boil the water on the stove, then sieve in the flour, making sure you get ALL of the lumps out. The quantity of ingredients aren't important, it just depends on how much you want. Once you have the flour mixed nicely into the water it should look nice and thick. Next, add the red food coloring.

You will notice that it's a ghastly, bright red colour but don't worry this is why we add the coffee. It is important that when you add the coffee to make sure the mixture is hot, otherwise it wont dissolve, but up until adding the coffee can be done in a ordinary mixing jug or pan.


Palmolive Imitation Blood

A reader writes in: You can also make fake blood with Palmolive dish soap, (it doesn't matter how much you put in) it depends on how much blood you want! Add red berry powered Kool-Aid!

[nossie]

I use real blood...whwhwhwahahahahahaha

It's funny coz it's true!


...but really dude "a messy death"? Are you comparing to John Paul II or what? You should watch the movie "7" for inspiration etc.

 

[cameramike]

Ok my bad. I didn't mean to come accross as a harsh critic... but your death looks a little clean and soft,.. and almost nice ;0)

(nossie puts on his eccentric theatrical wig) c'mon people I want guts and gore everywhere! If the under 25s (maxbloom & sideburns e.g.) aren't pissin there pants then let's review before we call it gore.

I mean really, they thought the "Blair Witch oh my gawd I gotta sleep for a week" was scary, Cloverfield must be causing nightmares.

Cool idea, but have to agree with Icon, the body position is a bit ...... rehearsed. Doesn't seem to be a natural prone.

Never underestimate the power of perception from parents. They know you're screwed up. They just have the decency not to throw it in your face.
