Re: HELP. IOU PROP
In response to your question, why not make one out of clay? It would be easy to make the necessary "cuts" and indentation.
If I were doing this, I would create the apple shape using the color of the inside of the apple (with necessary indentations). Then I'd create a thin red sheet of clay and wrap it around the outside, cutting out the portions that are supposed to be missing. Then throw it in the oven for a little bit and you have yourself a prop.

Re: HELP. IOU PROP
Writing in all caps is generally a no-no in forums too. It's like you're shouting at us.
Hope your apple prop goes well, and you have fun at the Comicon.
