Products(Prop or SFX or else) that turn character's skin frozen or encased in ice?

Hi, are there products that can turn character's skin frozen or encased in ice form/statue?

It can be either prop or sfx or anything else, and works with Iray if possible.

Thanks for answering.

    You could try Iray Frozen Brothers for Genesis 3 Male and/or Iray Frozen Sisters for Genesis 3 Female. Works just fine on Genesis 8, too. It applies directly to the surface, but if you use a geoshell and drop the opacity, it would look like a layer of ice over top. There are also shaders included that give the same effect on just about anything.

    I think you could do this with a geoshell fairly easily.
    1. Select the figure you want to encase in ice.
    2. Go to Create>New Geometry Shell
    3. With your newly created shell selected in your scene tab, go to the parameters tab and change Mesh Offset from the default 0.10 to something around 1. 
    4. In your surfaces tab, apply the ice shader of your choice, or make your own. 

    Boom! Frozen figure.

    Thank you, this sounds like a good idea.
