ABSTRACT:
A method of manufacturing simulated animal or fish skin includes pouring a silicone compound over a sample of the skin to be simulated as, for example, dried fish skin. After the silicone compound jells, it is removed from the sample as a layer and forms a mold of the skin to be simulated. The mold is then cleaned and covered with a fiberglass cloth. A flex resin compound is poured onto the fiberglass cloth to fill the mold. After waiting a predetermined period of time, the fiberglass cloth is removed leaving behind the simulated skin which may then be painted to achieve realism. The painted simulated skin may then have a backing material such as cloth or vinyl applied thereto and the composite material cut to a desired shape.
