Our workshops
SFX and Make-up
FLAT MOLDS
In this workshop you’ll learn sculpting and appliance techniques to create different skin structures. The possibilities range from trauma wounds to face prosthetics. We work from the absolute beginning all the way until the end and sculpt, make malls and pour the silicone. We finish with a demo of how you can color and blend for a complete end product!
This workshop is given by ELCFX, who are the leading SFX and Make-up specialist in the Netherlands.
3d Printing
ASSEMBLING AND PREPPING
With the rise of 3d printers a new world has opened up to cosplayers. As great as this is, we’ve seen that a lot of complex weapons and props give cosplayers a lot of trouble. In this workshop you’ll learn how to smartly print, assemble, and prepare your prop for painting. In this workshop you’ll get a choice of three props to work on, which you get to take home afterwards!
This workshop is given by Deathstrike, who is known for his award winning costumes and props.
