What is the Difference Between FX Bootcamp 1 and FX Bootcamp 2?
You can take these courses individually or together and you can start with either. They are independent of each other. We just had to label them "1" and "2" as there was too much content to put into one course. FX Bootcamp 1 focuses on bruises, scabs, scrapes & prosthetics while FX Bootcamp 2 focuses on cuts, bullet holes, burns, prosthetics and sculping.
