Claudia Final Look



Above is my final image for the character of Claudia. The hair is sleek and pulled over the eye.. I wanted the whole image to be dark to create a certain mood about it. The eye makeup was Kryolan supracolour powdered down to create a tear stained effect. I wanted the eye makeup to be more than just a tear stain so i dragged the look down the cheek. 

Creating Masculine Hair

To create masculine hair you will need to: 

- Create a horseshoe section on the models hair. This is basically the top section of hair at the crown. 
- Secure the section out of the way. 
- With the remaining hair create a flat french pleat, by pulling the pleat apart from the centre.
- Neaten the section to create the desired shape and texture. 
- The hair at the side needs to be pulled down to create side burns.
- Next you will need to create the side parting. Section parting into the left hand side of the horseshoe section. 
- Pull the remaining hair into the pleat and disguise the ends of the hair to create a smooth finish. 
- Finish by checking that the silhouette looks manly.

Scars created with Moulds



12. Scars with moulds

To create scars with moulds you will need:
-      Moulds
-      Gelatine
-      Vaseline
-      Prosaid
-      Powder
-      Pin
-      Supracolour

How to:
-      Vaseline the mould.
-      Melt the gelatine and place into the mould.
-      Leave for 5 hours to set or until hard
-      Get the scar out of the mould by using a pin.
-      Stick the scar onto the skin with prosaid
-      Powder over the mould so the scar edges disappear.
-      Also add water to get rid of the edges.
-      Add colour to the scar to make it look more realistic.






Burns

To create burns you will need: 

- Tissues
- Gelatine 
- Supracolour
- Collodium 
- Fake Blood
- Spirit Gum

Once again you will need to think about what created the burn and the shape and time the heat was on the skin. 

How to: 

- Apply the tissue to the skin using Collodium. Break the tissue up to create more of a 3D effect on the skin. Layer the tissue.
- Add some colouring to the tissue to make the colouring found on burns. 
- Apply fake blood  to the tissue. This gives the burn the shiny effect created when heat touches the skin. 
- Add gelatin to the skin and tissue to build it up as extra skin.

To heat the gelatin: 

Take a bowl of water and place the gelatin inside. Microwave for 40 seconds. Test on yourself before placing onto the models skin in case you do actually burn the skin. Remove with Spirit gum.
