Create a Moving Rorschach Mask

I've seen a few Instructables on here that show you how to make a mask with a Rorschach imprint on it. In this Instructable, I will show you how to make a mask with ink that actually moves, similar to the Rorschach mask from the Watchmen film. The materials needed for this mask will cost around $50, but you will be able to make over a dozen masks out of the remaining paint and materials.

Supplies
Black to clear thermochromic paint (Can be purchased from Paint with Pearl )
Transparent base for water-soluble inks (Can be purchased from eNasco )
A bowl and spoon for mixing the paint and base
A sheet of wax paper
Some sort of white fabric; tank tops work best

Step 1 Preparing Your Paint

To start off, you'll need to mix the thermochromic paint powder and the transparent base together in a bowl. For one mask, you will need to use about 2 tbsp. of thermochromic powder and 5 tbsp. of the transparent base.

Yup, this seems doable. But when you factor in the costs to basically make one mask... Anywho, I found this site: www.rorschachmasks.com. Wonder if that's how he/she does it?
