Title: basic fx make-up
Post by: eatyrspleens on 06 Mar 2007, 17:22
i have a class this semester. i thought i'd share the assignments i've turned in so far. i think this fits under arts and crafts, anyway.

zombie!

not that great. done right before class. i didn't have everything i needed to make fake blood, so it's too red and too thin. eh.

old age!

i either followed the teacher's instructions wrong or my face is really hard to age.

spider bite!

my best, so far. i used a picture of a brown recluse bite for reference.

black eye!

the first project i did. it could use more purple/black, but it's alright, i guess.

Wow, very creepy stuff that you have clearly researched alot... You even knew that head wound bleed alot more than normal!  Great work, but I would be nervous around you near any blunt instruments. Have you used this talent for anything other than class assignments? I can think of alot of ways to have fun with this!

Hey, that's so awesome! Can you teach us how to do anything? Preferably the black eye? If it'd take a really long time to explain things, don't bother, but I'd love to learn how to do that. Maybe I should just take a class, ha.

Wow, that spider bite looks disgustingly real. Which is your goal, I guess, so good job! I would definitely agree that it's your best out of what we've seen.

this website (http://www.fxwarehouse.info) has tutorials for black eye application, blood recipes, etc. all i have used has been grease paint, liquid latex, and extra flesh (http://www.halloweenexpress.com/extra-flesh-fake-skin-p-2059.html). i had to link to the extra flesh just because it's so cool. i used it in the spider bite application, which is why it looks raised.

thanks for all the compliments!

The next time my friend has me look after his kid, I am so trying the black eye thing just to give him a bit of a scare! His son is cool and would love to do this too.

Blegh!

In more articulate terms, well done! Those look pretty awesome.
