A discussion group about the uses, techniques, complications, brands and anything else concerning silicone rubber. Silicone rubber for puppet making has been around for quite a few years now and yet it's still new and intimidating to many stop motion puppet makers. There are beliefs about it being very expensive, difficult to use, sensitive to other materials and so on - and these are myths that need to be BUSTED! :) The truth about silicone is that it is a very friendly to use material and the cost is very comparable to most other casting rubbers such as foam latex and urethane rubbers. There are many advantages to using silicone and a lot to tips and tricks to using it. Please post your comments, questions, examples of your works, reviews of brands and anything else related to silicone rubber puppet and prop making here!
