Many people love to watch movies. In movies, we often see a scene: a person puts on a human skin mask and then disguises himself into the enemy's interior to catch the enemy by surprise. Of course, this is just a scene in a movie, so is there such a human skin mask in real life?
In fact, human skin masks do exist in our lives, but it is difficult for ordinary people to see them. Because people who use human skin masks are often secret agents or other personnel, it is difficult for ordinary people to access this product. For now, modern people are technologically advanced, so the method of making human skin masks is often to use some high-tech materials. For example, artificial silica gel, a material such as silica gel, is very close to human skin. As long as it is dyed and printed with corresponding lines, the silica gel is very similar to human skin when it is attached to the face. To print the corresponding hairs and wrinkles on the silicone, then apply glue on the back and stick to the face. From a distance, it seems to be another person. Even if you look closely, it is difficult to distinguish the truth from the false.
In fact, human skin masks are not only available now, but there were also masks of character in ancient times. Some people may be curious that there was also silicone in ancient times? There was definitely no silicone in ancient times, but there were other ways to make human skin masks in ancient times. The so-called human skin masks are nothing more than a layer of human skin on the face. So what was used to make such human skin masks in ancient times?
In fact, the material for making human skin masks in ancient times is pigskin, and this kind of pig cannot be too big or too old. The human-skin masks made in this way are too stiff and unreal, and generally, they use some small pig skins. First, they will cut out the corresponding shape according to the appearance of the human skin mask. When cutting, try to cut as large as possible, because the pork skin will shrink during the production process. So they'll do it a little bit bigger. After cutting it, they will soak the pigskin in wine. Why use wine? Because pigskin is easy to spoil and rot, soaking in wine is used to sterilize and prevent it from rotting, which is similar to the principle of using alcohol as a specimen now. After soaking, start to scrape the skin. The so-called skin scraping is to use a knife to scrape the back of the pigskin to make it look more like human skin. After that, you need to paste hair on the front of the pigskin, similar to human eyebrows or beards.
Some people will ask, how did you attach these eyebrows and beards without glue in ancient times? In fact, there was glue in ancient times, but the glue at that time was very different from the glue now. There were no chemical glues at that time, they were all made of natural materials. For example, in ancient times, most glues used a kind of isinglass, that is, the materials on the fish are cooked and made into glue. This glue is pure and natural, and will not cause damage even when standing on a person's face. People often use this glue to stick a human skin mask on a person's face. After sticking it on, put on the person's clothes and disguise it. After that, the person can go deep behind the enemy to explore the terrain and kill the enemy by surprise. . We can't help but sigh that the wisdom of the ancients is truly infinite! In the absence of high technology, such a beautiful human skin mask can be made.
Whether ancient or modern, this human-skin mask is an essential tool for getting behind enemy lines. It's just the rendering of the film that makes it extra mysterious.
