Frank walks us through the painting of this great latex zombie mask made by his friend Tim Shea. There are many different ways to paint it, and Frank shows us how to use rubber cement paint to bring out the sculpture's details and layer on a fun color scheme.

"Art's never finished, It's abandoned", that's both beautiful and sad.
Davinci was a smart man.
Thanks I really did my best.

I really like this quote!
MonkeyShaman with that emoji, I just see two boobs and a line 😂😂
I absolutely love this format! Brilliant. To have the casual as-it-happening conversation with a constant timelapse, so there's never a lull, really refreshing.
I also loved the moment at the end where we hang on Franks quote and the piano flourishes to an end, just a lovely moment, gratz to the editor :)
I concur, the production on these videos keeps getting better. Pretty soon Tested will have to move to Vimeo!
I fully agree with what you said. I actually found myself complaining a couple of times on tested videos and giving critisism. So.. :) I dont feel above it to then take a moment and report that this video was really pleasant to watch. Love the format as you expressed already.
+OohzyJohnDow I agree a little bit. I just want a little better editing on videos like the ones where they make models.
It was actually Norm playing that piano romantically while Frank was painting this mask.
As a scenic artist I find these videos about different mediums super enlightening.
I am currently enrolled in a SFX school and they teach us that to paint a foam latex mask to paint with acrylics and prosaid, 50/50 ratio. Then to finish with a translucent setting powder. It's interesting to see what others in the profession use. Loved it anyway!
Well, Foam Latex and MASK Latex are completely different.
"Art is never finished, it's abandoned."

a great old quote
The painter ain't dead,
He's just resting.
I love the quote at the end, 'Art is never finished only abandoned.' - Da Vinci. I live by those words as an artist there comes a point in a piece when you just have to say it's good. More so with weathering, people can get really out of hand and true layer after layer really brings together the details and makes things pop and look great on camera you have to find a limit where you put the brush down and stop.
Zombie looks great love the washes and details.
Top quality vid. The mask looks great and the commentary style works perfectly for these timelapse bits.
That jazz on the background makes this so relaxing to watch. Love it!
My fav tested video in a long time! Relaxing, talking about the technical and artistic processes. It's up there with the astronaut kit painting!
As someone who's spent five years in art school with tutors who were very picky about the paints we used, I've learned that the difference between cheap and expensive paints is the amount of solvent used to dilute the paint, and the size of the pigment particles. Expensive paint will have finer pigments, and sometimes more pigment too, which means fewer coats to get coverage. Great video though! 😊
Beautiful artwork that highlights the sculpt
Art is never finished, only abandoned
― Leonardo da Vinci
This is an amazing paint job; I paint Miniatures but I would love to try this out. Thanks for posting this vid!
My first thought on seeing this was using these methods to customize off the shelf latex masks. Very interesting and fun video.
I really like the feel of Tested with the current personnel-don't get me wrong, everyone who has contributed has brought something to it. I just believe that it has coalesced into a solid focused project (in front of the camera, & behind the scenes) thanks!
This is so great! Looks fantastic. Very informative. I do my vehicle like this and want to explore different color themes, that's cool the naptha does not effect the latex adversely.
this looks awesome. Very good video. explained a lot.
Thank you for making this video. Always a cherished time watching these videos and seeing your process.
Great quote to finish off :) also really like how you guys cut this video, was a lot easier to watch than some of the other ones on painting
I really like this format ;) I'm always happy when you guys upload.
"I am actually just shoving some brown up into there."
Been there dude.
Intresting to see how you work when you paint it. Thanks. Have a great week
I like this format.
this was awesome! this is what tested is all about!
loved it looks straight out of ParaNorman also it gives me a district 9 feel when I see it from the side
So many things to like about this video. That mask. That paint job. Inspiring.
Beautiful work, and a good video of it. Thanks.
Excellent job. i know nothing about painting but I can appreciate good work. looks awesome.
glad to see that adams doing well scince mythbusters and that tested allows him to do stuff that he enjoys like one day builds.
loved the paint job Frank
I love this videos with Frank.
I really liked this format for painting.
this looks like something that'd be related to the gorillaz
I know it's wrong ... but..it reminds of some one...
+Sharepie ..yes..yes..you got that right....my childhood neighbor had same ears.
yeah i saw the same style in this mask, glad somebody notice too.
Steve Buscemi, lol
ethan!!
That is a killer paint job!!
This was one of the coolest and most useful tested videos yet.
Great tips. Thanks Tested!
loved the phrase at the end! So true!
That's such a beautiful design 😍
love this format guys.. keep it up.
Great Work Frank!
great video all round.
more from Frank please
Frank's new shop space probably makes filming less cramped! Cool stuff!
its relaxing to see another artist do their job when you know the struggle!
Thanks Frank! Great to see the process. =)
looks amazing!
Awesome work.
Very good video! I liked the time laps with commentary. Also, really sad that mask mold isn't in use, it's a pretty fun zombie one!
Love this video style.
dude this is off the chain so sick !
Good choice in music. enjoyed everything about this video
Great video and tutorial.
This is amazing I want to to try something like this sometime
Boy am I glad I watched this!
The shirt with snakes on it is really cool
I love this caricature look, goofy, spooky, kooky Ed Rothesque look.
i am absolutely in love with that character!! i love the idea of a funny friendly drunk zombie :D and he sorta reminds me of the skeletons from corpse bride :)
I loved the music on this one, very chillaxed. How do the eyes work on this mask? Is there a net or something?
Anyone know the title of the music that was playing? It was very relaxing. Also great video tested this format really worked out great
"Art's never finished, it's abandoned" Wow... Never thought about it that way but it's stunningly accurate! o.0
The sculpt is so dam insane
Nice video. Thoughtful.
I would have been happy with it just after the brown wash lol, it turned out really awesome in the end though!
Holy video quality Batman! Sweet mask too.
Hey Frank, I am an aspiring maker and in this videoI noticed you mention "crappy chemicals." Could you and Norm do a shop video where you can talk about chemical safety, when you need a respirator and when not when working with the various toxic things we like to play with?
Nice one bro 💯💯🔥🔥😎😎
I thought this was a zombie Gollum. :)
Awesome job.
I really like this mask.
love this skull
that zombie is adorable i can totally see him in a cartoon or something
More! Please!
Yeah that's badass
Wow amazing
Really like the format on this video. anyone know the song that was playing during the time lapse?
So cool
oh man this smooth jazz sandin me right to sleep
Damn, this is inspiring, I want to work with this stuff now.
Took me 20 years of painting to get to the skill level. I know like myself, Frank is capable of so much more. This was just a speed paint job to show off for tested. Keep practicing, never be afraid to jump right in. You'll get there.
this very much reminded me of the Mr Rogers picture picture naration videos.
Lovely music!
AWESOME!!!! So you could wipe the VMatte off again with alcohol and paint over again with another color? Thanks for the reply.
I mostly use, latex thinned with 10% ammonia solution and Acrylic based pigments. It works but it smells very bad and it darkens. Because i seal my projects with polyurethane latex, i doubt that the rubber cement could survive this. But i will make an experiment to find out.
Have a nice day.
Can silicone be painted in a similar way?
Great video!
Do you have tutorials on how to make a good skull analogue or zombie head analogue if a person wants to make it but has no access to professional equipment?
That was so fuckin beautiful and chill
I jumped when he said Tim Shay lol
Great video... I've just bought a michael myers elrod mask to convert and I've finished it using black acrylic and water for the weathering and then just a few bits of dry brushing the jowl lines and lips etc... I did this straight onto the mask how it came as the paint job was ok... Now its dry parts of the heavy weathering can be rubbed off in a pealing fashion if i apply lots of pressure and rub with my finger... Should i have sealed it once I'd finished? It would obviously need to be flexible as its latex and I'd want it matt and not shiny... Any help will do as i only seem one step away from having a great looking mask for myself.... Thank you 👍🏼😁🎃
Milk frother as mixer? Nice
That was peaceful.
Great video and cool mask, but I wish it was in normal speed and longer, like 30 mins or something.
Frank's an incredible artist and really knows his shit eh
Take a shot every time Frank says “Uh” or “Um”
And maybe -- maybe we put in a happy little boil here. Just like that. Just let it happen.
Could you use talcum powder instead of v-matte to eliminate the tackiness of the rubber cement? Or would it just turn into a sort of paste and rub off?
Going to do a 2 million sub special episode?
Arts never finished, it's abandoned! Great quote
The difference between the different grades of paint is the ratio of pigment. The better grades have much more pigment than the lower ones.
That Zombie reminds me of the slack jaws from Eric Powell's "The Goon"
oh hey, now i can paint my own mask this year
Say you use this technique on a Batman cowl, how will the paint hold up with flexing during putting it on your head and taking it off?
Can this technique be used for both foam and liquid latex? Only tested acrylics + prosaide before!
"an art is never finished, it's abandoned" haha true
Im going to give this paint a try sometime soon, I've been using latex mask paints from monster makers and I'm honestly very sick of it and the trouble its been giving me! Its chunky, hard to work with, impossible to brush on, and has ruined hundreds and hundreds of dollars in airbrush guns!
same problem with me. Switched to rubber cement, works really good with brushes, but still working on airbrush ratio. Tends to clog it quite a bit.
