I stumbled upon this video and thought it was very interesting. I was curious if anyone has tried using a similar technique to make a stop motion puppet. It appears to have a few benefits over latex, one being that it doesn't degrade over time. If you have used it could you explain how well it worked or any unexpected problems that you ran into?

That's fascinating. I would have thought that silicone's fairly uniform curing process wouldn't lend itself to build-up, but I guess if you mix up small batches with a short pot life, it could be workable... very cool!
