Dorian Gray design practice on my model

Hair:
  • Paint with white and yellow Supra-Colour mix - yellow should counteract bluish tint
  • For next time, add some dry shampoo for dusty effect
  • Part very neatly for easy continuity
  • Instead of simply messing up hair like in original design; backcomb, then style neatly, so that I can pull out individual sections and place them carefully, to then replicate exactly from pictures


Make-up:
  • Cover any blemishes that might change over time
  • Apply a couple of layers of latex - be careful to soften edges with acetone
  • Powder on top and all over skin for slightly pale/greyed/dry skin effect
  • Do not put latex where the bruising will be as it crumbles the texture of the Supra-Colour!!
  • Fill in wrinkles with darker concealer
  • Brush white/grey Supra-Colour through eyebrows, eyelashes and any facial hair (ask model to keep same facial hair for next session!)
  • Grey in cheekbones to thin face
  • Yellow tint under right eye, bruising on left - follow image of real black eye
  • Create cut on left cheek
  • Blend colour down neck - ask model to wear shirt with collar (in theme with period)
  • Keep notes and take careful pictures!!!
