As with the first look I produced, I am also extremely happy with the outcome of the second, and final, makeup look. Though I like how the hair is rough and bunched up, I do look back and think it is possible I could have done something more dramatic, though was scared I'd make the look too busy and ruin it, saying this, I don't think the hair is all that important and isn't the main focus of the image so don't feel this is something I should dwell on.
Regarding the rest of the look, it turned out better than I could have hoped, I tried to focus on the small details to get it as perfect as possible, such as the arrangement of the scars, the eyeliner and red paint markings. The model I chose was the perfect choice, the look complimented her face well and she was more than happy to let me continue the makeup down onto her back. She also posed perfectly for the photos and I got so many beautiful photos.
I am also overjoyed with my makeup application, though the scarring took a while, it was all worthwhile, following her bone structure and styling the face chart around her face shape than the base I'd drawn. The foundation also matched well with her skin and helped blend the scarring whilst still keeping the pink colour, the brick red markings and lips also complimenting her natural skin tone very well.
Overall, I wouldn't feel the need to reshoot, I feel I have gotten some amazing and dramatic photos of the look, making the idea of scarification and tribal culture appeal from a fashion shoot point of view.
