Backstage

Halloween.. the night when the barriers between the worlds of the living and the dead become thinner..
But it can also be a zombie sexy? Because it is right that the trick, even if used only as a disguise, continue to enhance the face of the wearer.
We leave then latex and fake blood, to devote to a softer makeup, made of color and chiaroscuro.
Jaya, sweet and nice girl of Indian origin will help us in the enterprise.

Before you begin the trick I applied to Jaya contact lenses colored type 'Manson', This is to prevent later could bring the color on the eyelid in contact with the eyes or that they lacrimassero ruining so the trick.
The first operation of makeup needed was lighten the color of the skin, which has become a hot amber candy pink. To do this I sprayed a base airbrush with water colors.
Then I created a purple bruise, mixing together the pink base and appropriate amounts of red and blue.
This color was then used only in the recesses of the face and body, gradient, to increase the sense of depth. You can see clearly around the eyes, under the cheekbones, the edges of the nose and on the upper section of the bust.
Even the lips have been redesigned with a brush, with the same purple color used for the chiaroscuros, but giving the lower lip greater roundness.
I then apply false eyelashes, long but not thick, that helped give the eyes a sense of roundness.
The hair, already collected for the trick, were covered with a beautiful black wig, that Jaya had found in the morning and that he could not resist..
A range of accessories such as lace gloves and a crown of flowers have compeltato the Gothic look.
Felice Halloween !:)

Republish this old guide on how to make a nice makeup feline, always in vogue for those who want to deal with a little carnival’ of joy. E’ You can also change the colors proposed (blue and blue, Pink and rosso) to give the mask a touch of originality !

First of all applied with a sponge, a white light enough on the face (I used the acquacolor) , including the eye, and softening the neck. Then start drawing with the black nose cone, as shown, about respecting the limits given by the vertical line of the eyes and ears of the mid face (red lines).
The mark must be decisive and firm, starting off from the edges of the mouth to get thin and faded face up to the half way line.

E’ important to taking a nose-shaped inverted triangle, the upper lip and a double curve, typical facial feline. In the rest of the face I made a trick based on triangles and curves, to remember a bit’ the stripes of the coat brindle.

In this case, to remember the effect of the hair, I left the poorly defined bodi, created with many small irregular pennellatine.

Finally I marked with a white nose and chin more cargo, I called contornadoli black eyes and stretching a bit’ out, and I scored a mustache with many small dots blacks.
Another effect you can give with sponge (little!) gray / black part of the face remained between the white stripes; This will help to create chiaroscuro effects and make the most basic trick of living.
Accessories such as ear, vampire teeth and colored contact lenses with the eye of the cat will make the mask even more attractive ! =)

As promised a few days ago, here are some simple steps to achieve in a short time and with materials readily available from a nice trick Zombie, On the subject saw the carnival imminent or partner if you want to remove some’ troppo assillanti 🙂

Materials needed:

• White base for facepainting (excellent even in the clown makeup cream)
• Black pencil make-up
• Color fire red (well only a lipstick)
• Pre-vulcanized liquid latex (alternatively a layer of toilet paper and PVA glue)
• possibly a correction / economic foundation

How to proceed:

Apply with a sponge in the liquid latex to the cheeks and make it dry using a hair dryer. In the event that you do not have the latex (mesticheria or sell it in stores a few colors €) can be done as follows:

Separated by a piece of toilet paper (or a paper towel) two-ply, tear so that it follows an approximate outline of the cheeks (you could get two more or less oval) and paste to the face, one cheek, using PVA glue as a bonding agent diluted in a bit’ d’acqua, being careful to apply the glue to the side of oval, and not in the middle.

When finished you can proceed to slightly whiten his face, as the most preferred white forehead, the nose and cheekbones.

Apply now some’ black eyes: over the entire upper eyelid and lower eyelid, surrounding the whole eye.
Wait for it to dry out a bit’ (in case you're using water colors) then mix it with a bit’ sfumatelo on lipstick and white: the objective is to achieve a dark purple.

Now, with a pencil or black color on the cheeks create a chiaroscuro: the goal is to give an idea of emptying, then you can proceed to break the latex or toilet paper in vertical strips, coloring the underlying skin with red lipstick, To give an idea of the flesh.

Finally, color the tip of the nose and lips with black.
If you're using a pencil ol'eyeliner can score some interesting cross line, thin lips, not too long, giving the idea of ​​a lip that is breaking.

The concealer or the foundation may be useful at this point if we realize that we have exaggerated with the white or black and white will fade further (apply it to lighten the black, then fade to white).

If we want to add some more details, We can draw two parallel lines on the forehead and round, by then fade out, to give an idea of the passage of a large vein or the skin is breaking.

A red halo around the mouth and stains like blood spatter made will make it more gruesome and terrifying your creation..

Neck and hand colored the same color of the face , and uncombed hair properly and fixed with a bit’ spray or foam to make you worthy of revival from death …

Here is the backstage for the construction of a denture (it is actually a crown) realism of undisputed, highly effective in making short films, live events, cosplay or just for a change’ their look depending on the mode.

L’ need is available in all stores for dentists or dental, possibly also at a good price online.

Materials needed:

• An impression tray top of the desired size
• Alginate per imprint, slow.
  
• Gypsum powder.
• Disposable latex gloves.
• Dough or put.
• Vaseline.
• Resin for provisional.
• Pre-vulcanized liquid latex
• Bototalco
• Silicone Impression (it only takes a small amount)
  
• any water-based acrylic colors
  

The first step is to take an impression of the teeth. This is done using the special tray and a fair mixture of water and alginate (I use Neocolloid, which is also excellent for making the cast of the face or any part of the body).

Once the slurry has been stabilized and hardened (by 3 to 5 minutes) you can clean the mouth and fill with a mixture of water and gypsum. Council to do this in two stages: the first with a very liquid mixture that is stratified throughout the footprint, It need operation during which tap the table, is to remove small air bubbles present, that in order to enable the plaster to make every detail present on the mold.

The second, every few minutes from the first, a little more dense, as a filler.

After a period ranging from 20 minutes 2 hours, depending on the plaster you have chosen, Your positive is ready.

If you have a latex liquid, I recommend using it to coat the stamp with a light film, Dab with talcum powder: This will make it much easier to loose the prosthesis as well as give a slight 'game’ made to the crown, that make it more comfortable and durable.

On the positive thus created and covered by a layer of latex, it is now possible to model your new teeth with the plasticine or clay.

After work cover everything with a thin layer of vaseline, that, as well as allow the posting of the counter that we will achieve, is also useful to give a good polish to the whole tooth.

The prototype so grossed must be placed in the freezer for a couple of hours, so that the plasticine or clay to take a good consistency.

After such an interval may be made to make the mold with key (that is, with a detail, such as a small pin located on the palate) allowing for the repositioning of the same counter.

To accomplish the latter you can use different types of materials, but I have experimentally verified that the best is the silicone impression (Flexitime EasyPutty), that breaks away from the plaster once catalyzed, is flexible and allows slight undercuts, separating the resin and is reusable !

Wait until the counter that you cast or molded on the model is hard, and disconnect it from your work again. Make sure that the work done so far has managed well and remove the dough from the positive (and if present in trace, also from the negative).

Now comes the most delicate moment, the realization of the real prosthesis molding.

Given the nature of the used substances near, I suggest you work in a well ventilated place and using latex gloves.

Liquid and powder (I used a medium color Duralay clear) be blended in appropriate quantities (about 1:1) and then poured into the mold, closed immediately with good positioning with the key you created earlier. Obviously a soft mold will make it much easier being removed.

After a variable time between half an hour and 2 hours depending on the resin used can be removed to cut the crown, remove small imperfections, lucidarla, and colored end.

In some of the attached pictures you can see how he left a large area of coverage on the gums. This is not always necessary, rather, often the most realistic prosthesis cover only the teeth. A skilful use of color and a couple of coats of clear gloss will give your life to finally sighed work.
