Dragon look. Did this one because two people said to do it. Thought I had. The stuff for it but after looking at it I need so much more to make it look how it is in my head.
I really want to make or order some horns. I’m definitely lacking some prosthetic ears. I want some large pointy ones for this look. I started out with just the idea to do the scales on the forehead. I honestly wished I planned this one out a bit more but for a first attempt at this I feel it came together pretty good. The theme was suppose to be a gold dragon but it turns out I lack a lot of stuff to make the few ‘gold’ things I have pop out. I’ll need to focus on what I can do to really make my gold shine without gold leaf. Or maybe I can get gold face paints…..hmmmm. Now the gears are turning.
Sharing these pieces and reflecting on them and what I want to work on and what didn’t work how I wanted it to is really making me take strides forward instead of baby steps. My only hiccup I ran into this time was I had zero backdrop for this look and nothing I could’ve done on the fly for it. Luckily my landlord kept her gold curtains and I was able to use those. Next time I’ll really need a spot for me to take pictures even if it is against a black backdrop. That was at least we can focus on the makeup and not the world going on around me.
