Very difficult to tell but I'm going to guess you did the blue yourself? How do you colour your gunge? I seem to have the problem that when I mix Gunge it looks a great colour in the bucket but when it is poured over the victim it doesn't give a good effect colour wise!

I use poster paint from 'The Range' here in the UK
The way i mix is simple powder in one bucket (MAKE SURE THE BUCKET IS DRY!)
warm water in the other (at this point a add a full 500ml bottle of poster paint)
add the pre coloured water to the powder and mix well for about 10 mins
You can get the same results with powder paint by using more of it. For our shoots we tend to use more paint for a more solid colouring. The best gunge for a more opaque gunge is methyl or carboxy methyl cellulose as is its more opaque to start with. We've also had good results with other cellulose material. The problem with Natrosol is it produces a very clear gunge that takes a lot of paint to colour it. 500ml is an awful lot of colouring. Great results though.
Love you, too
