Silicone and Oil Paint Skin Tests

I found this fantastic video that showed me how to use silicone properly:


Here are some tests I did of silicone on foam. I realised that white silicone is horrible stuff and clear works so much better. It has a nicer texture, finish and can achieve more subtle colours. I was able to get the mottled effect I was after and score cracks in the silicone with a cocktail stick. I learnt the silicone needs to be realy thinly applied in order to work, allowing you to build it up in layers.
