Both mine and my partners designs went through drastic changes. This was Laynas first design. It focused on the veins that were visible in eliAbethan skin due to how pale they were. We knew we wanted the veins to look realistic so we tried two techniques. The first, shown above, was achieved by using supra colour over a normal base. We decided that this made the veins stand out too much and they looked painted on.
Next we used Aqua colour to draw the viens on whilst doing the base. We then went over this with face and body, a thin foundation and applied this using a sponge. It gave a much more natural appearance and the viens did appear to be under the skin however Layna still wasn't 100% with her design and so she wanted to go away and work on another face chart.
This is the final design Layna came up with. We tried this out in a practice session without the pearls and Layna was a lot happier with this look.
After practicing this look inside and out of class I felt confident that I would be able to achieve it in my final assessment. I loved this design and the sharp geometric shaping of the eyes.
