Who is behind FuseFX?
In
the
early 80’s, Guy Louis-XVI started a Special Effects company called
Louis-XVI
SFX. He specialized in foam latex appliances, props and make-up for the
film
and television industry.
Over
the
years, Louis-XVI SFX expanded to include plaster/resin composite
sculptures,
lifecastings and Hi-Realism mannequins for museums and private
collectors.
Always
striving for realism, Guy began experimenting with silicones as a
medium, in the
late 90’s. He quickly learned that silicones presented many challenges.
For
starters, painting a silicone surface to look like human skin was
exceedingly
difficult. Shine and adhesion, to name a few, also proved to be
troublesome.
An artist
with a passion for color and realism, Guy gradually developed his craft
through
trial and error, finding out what works and what doesn’t for many types
of
applications. Bringing his sculptures to life was one thing, making it
easy was
another.
Having
mastered skin coloring, Guy wanted to do away with weigh scales,
measuring cups
and silicone caulking, as a binder for oil paints. All this represented
an
inconvenience.
Through
persistent research, development and years of silicone painting
experience,
Guy Louis-XVI SFX designed a system that is as easy to use as opening
a tube
of artist’s oil paint.
FuseFX is born.
Originally
created for medical prosthesis and the Anaplastology field, FuseFX has
expanded
to the world of Special FX. Sculptors, artists, anyone who uses
Platinum base
silicone will benefit from FuseFX.
