ben nye blood is my favorite, it dries after a little while but remains wet looking, though big drops will remain somewhat gelled for a long time and there is a risk of it rubbing off on something. The good news is that is it water soluble and washes off almost everything! I have even washed it out of white cotton, but that is not a guarantee. As for needing a lot of it, my friend bought an 8oz bottle three years ago that we have used constantly and liberally on us and our friends and we have not even hit the halfway mark, you would be surprised how far that stuff can go! even so here is a link for a 16oz bottle if you feel like painting a house with it or something...

I keep saying it in this thread but youtube is a great place to look up sfx makeup tips! Here is a fun and easy one for a big ol' bite wound, but you can find lots more that are even easier, though you may want to practice first.

to make your costume pop a bit more, maybe consider some small props like a dino egg with a baby raptor inside http://www.ebay.com/itm/The-Lost-World-Jurassic-Park-Hatchling-Figures-lot-complete-set-/28096972090

perhaps have a torn backpack with some printout guide maps, you could have dino teeth embedded into your skin, you could use a jurassic park flag and use it as a bandage on your leg http://www.ebay.com/itm/Jurassic-Park-Movie-Action-Figures-Sign-Banner-Flag-B0035-/150903255073?pt=L

the possibilities are endless! In fact I am now jealous of your costume idea... I may have to steal it at some point
