First Aid can be difficult, it is a very important and serious subject but somehow, placing crisp white bandages onto an imaginary injury just does not conjour up the image of a real accident. Over the years, the Troop has come up with a number of ways of doing casualty simulation on a shoestring. Not only do they look realistic but the blister will burst if handled too roughly. Place a piece of tissue over the vaseline and very carfully rub it until the vaseline soaks in and turns the tissue transparent. Very carefully, tear away the excess tissue and smooth the ragged edges into the vaseline.
Tips Play around with the red paint before adding the vaseline to produce a really nasty burn.
How To Make A Nasty Wound Cut a piece of double-sided fabric plaster to the approximate size and shape of the wound and stick it down to the arm or leg or whatever. Decide on the type of wound you want and simulate it in the flesh Incised Wounds - these are clean cuts from knife slashes or glass, make these by cutting the flesh with a blunt butter knife. Lacerations - these are made by blunter objects like barbed wire. Simulate these by dragging a pencil point through the flesh. Punctures - a stab wound made by a knife, nail etc.
