For the second practice session I've finally decided about the final hair and make-up design that I'm going to recreate at both timed assessments.
The make-up, even though it looks simple, took more time than I expected and to balace the time spent on the make-up and hair I had to re-think the way I do my character's hair.
I've opted for a very defined centre parting with sleek hair on the sides, following that the longer hairs at the front, like a fringe, to be curled with a medium-sized tong. This will be historically accurate for the period that the character "lived" in and also will take less time than a hairstyle full of small curls. Also, it is better for continuity and it works on my model's hair which is kinda short. It also helps to give the idea of a very polished man and the little curls on the forehead that this very beautiful man might be evil, because to me, the little curls look like little horns to me.
The make-up took longer to be applied perfectly, because I really wanted to make his skin look the best but without making it look over the top. This is my final idea and I really liked how it looked like, and I'm going to keep it this way and also draw the face ad hair chart for it. I've sorted out the eyeshadow and made it look better and not so feminine like before and now I'm satisfied with it.
I've also took continuity notes for both hair and make-up and I only need to finish drawing the facechart and we're done. The continuity notes will appear on another blog post.
