What are you planning on doing with the video at the end?

Also, I thought about you the other night - I was watching Mythbusters (one of my favorite programs) and they were creating new "skin" for their test dummy, "Buster", by using a latex foam mixture they called DragonSkin
. It was highly impact resistant and extremely durable, and the process they went through reminded me a lot of this project.

Anyway, as someone who has always been fascintated by and studied a lot of movie special effects and makeup work, I just wanted to say that you're doing great, great work with this one, and your skill really shines. Thanks for sharing!

Thank You Rankenphile

i see you use a software to control the servos,
did you made it? No ,http://www.brookshiresoftware.com/ It record the moves and play back ,Like lip sync.Or Like stop motion animation

or there is somthing that can be adapted for any project,
and final Q do you think it could make a servo open\close a door depending on a temp readout
Im sure there is , But It would be a programer to help you.
Thanks
