Hey loves!
Hope you're doing great and feeling awesome!;)

So on Tuesday I was thinking about Balam from the Grimm series. I really love that series cause of all the creatures and effects and that books about creatures - no words, only emotions.
I've tried to recreate the fur pattern Balam has but I'm quite limited in things I can use cause its Central Asia baby, no chance to buy special effects products quickly. Though the creature is a complete 3d visual effect without any makeup.
Here's the link for you to read about it if you dont know the series http://grimm.wikia.com/wiki/Balam

And heres the pic of that jaguar-cat-creature



Now its time for you to judge about the makeup I've done inspired by this awesome jaguar.

I wanted to create something interesting and more complicated but decided to try out Drax makeup cause the pattern on his body is damn difficult.
I love 'Guardians of Galaxy' (Rocket Raccoon and baby Groot *_* ) and will definitely try to create someone else but this is the first try)


Amazing makeup work I think, his skin is a mix of dark green, grey and blue and bright red scars or pattern is complicated and looks great.
The original Drax from the comic book was green which reminds me of Hulk so I didn't want to go that 'classic look' way.

You can easily achieve this look cause its much more easier than the blue one though I've done the blue from movie as easy as the green from comics.

Rule 63 says that if there is a man character, some artist already done his woman version.

Hey everyone!
Finally my hands were able to manage the scales which I wanted. It's not the exact thing I was imagining but I like it anyway.

I've spent about 2 weeks trying to figure out how to create easy and normal looking scales. I've tried dragon/mermaid scales painting techniques which doesn't really work well on skin but looks good on paper. I draw a dragon face with all the scales on a paper but when tried to repeat same steps on my own face it was awful...
My hand was the main testing area cause the face wont really handle so many paintings and removing of the paint and then again and once more and remove and back again.

Look at the painting tutorial I've tried to use. It works great on paper, amazingly great, but on skin... Probably at this point I'm just unable to create fine scales with classic drawings but I will continue trying.


Finally my mind found out the the rounded flat brush and different amount of paint on it will create the effect I need and the final thing I've got is this:


I'm pretty pleased with the final look even though I had to photoshop that green hair... Please excuse me for that little trick.

Hello!

Halloween has just passed and I had a huge bunch of work on it. I was creating 8 characters and 2 simple makeups that day and it made me really tired. Its hard to spend 5 hours on your feet painting people, don't you agree?

my wound is not that realistic but...

Anyways, now I will show how to create very simple open wound with stitches which looks better on a bit tanned skin, cause I have very pale skin and some colors I've used couldn't match it.

Colors of paint were mixed by myself mostly but you can try to find similar colors or mix them yourself too.
These are the tools I've used.

1. Simplest eyeshadow I've found in a bit dark red, black, light pink, a bit more pinky, natural beige and light beige. (Pink eyeshadow are not necessary if you don't have pale skin)

2. Liquid paints in black, white, red and dark red. I've mixed red and a drop of black to get dark red. Those paints used to be Kryolan aquacolors liquid. But you can use 2/4 gouache, 1/4 acrylic paint and 1/4 glycerin to get those paint. Please don't use them much or often and apply some primer on your face before applying gouache.

Later I'm going to show you how to create some open wounds with stitches for Halloween
