Simulating Blood splatter

[Guest]

Hello

i was looking into simulating Blood splatters using Fake blood.

the question is, Has anybody tried this before, and would it be safe to use it in an airbrush?

Someone did this a while ago using an airbrush. I'm thinking of Ray (Sprayman) or John Huggins. Hopefully they'll chip in for you.

You could always create the colour and flick it from a stiff bristled brush, like a toothbrush, to create the splatter effect, as well.

Was actually going to do that, but was worried that the blood would darken to brown and ruin the effect

I use a thin straw and blow through the bullet hole. gets realistic results,remember blood splatter contains more than blood.
