The Cooler Heads take great pride in our life-like figures and stunt dummies. The process starts with a life casting of your talent. If the actor or actress is adamantly against having a life cast taken of their face and body, our sculptors can sculpt their features using measurements and photographs.
Our life-like figures can be made from silicone or urethane, depending on your preference. Silicone is more realistic looking, but urethane is slightly more durable and less expensive. The examples on this page show the quality of our work and the hyper-realism of our life-like figures. All of our dummies have individually punched hair, high quality eyes and teeth, and are painted by some of the best painters in the special effects industry.
