To make this hyper-realistic prop, I started by taking the alginate impression of a generic male finger and then pouring 20 shore platinum silicone into it. The nail and the torn part were made later by layering more platinum silicone that I pre-colored. Everything was then colored with alcohol colors with an airbrush to imitate the various layers of the skin.
