Fantasy / Alien Look

                                                

I did this alien look for my fantasy / bald cap assignment. My poor boyfriend does not look amused...
First of all I made the bald cap to fit his head.
For the 3D parts on the head, I layered latex over sculpted pieces made from clay and once they were ready, I stuck them onto the bald cap after it was applied with spirit gum.



To colour the look I used an airbrush with different shades of blue and purple paint, and added little details with white paint and there we have it, voilĂ !

                                           "A flake of snow in flurry thro’ the air
                                           Had landed as a kiss upon my cheek:
                                           A secret message, just for me to share;
                                           To take to heart but never dare to speak"

Wee Introduction!

                                                  Hello, my dearies!


My name is Simone Burns. I am currently doing a course in Theatrical and Special Effects Makeup and Hair, I've always been an artistic person and as I grew older and more aware of the world of makeup, I became facinated by all the different things you can do with it! So, I decided that I shall venture onto the internet to explore makeup in a whole new way . I look forward to seeing all your wonderful work and hearing all your ideas and opinions! Thanks for visiting :)



I don't believe that makeup is everything in the world of beauty, you do not need it to be 'pretty', although I do believe it emphasis what already makes you beautiful.
