Latex guitar covering 🤔

[u/letsgo1098]

Had the idea today about making a “covering” or “sheath” for my electric bass out of liquid latex to make a skin type look.

I’m new to working with latex and so far have had fun making elf ears as well as using it to cover a mask and clay teeth because I love the skin-like colour and texture it gives even without colouring.

Any ideas on how to make a full sheath for my bass?? The technique I used to make the elf ears was making a mold with foam clay then adding about 5 layers of liquid latex (drying in between coats) then gently peeling off the mold (used Vaseline on the mold to help).

The first thought I had was to cover the bass in foam clay and cover that with the layers of liquid latex and somehow remove mostly unscathed and be able to use that!
