putting my 1st design together...
so after researching deep into tribes, jewellery, makeup and hair design I have come up with a design idea that would fit into a catwalk show.
the face chart above shows the basic template that I am hoping to create. I have chosen dark eyes with a strong brow, contoured cheekbones and colour on the lips.
Development:
the gold dots on the face either side of the black stripe down the centre of the face are to incorporate the jewelling effect that the middle eastern/indian cultures tend to use. the black stripe down the center of the face is to add definition and mystery with out covering the actual face.
I haven't actually changed much to the facial makeup becuae I wanted to keep a strong, contoured face with out over powering the design.
I used bronzed colours over the whole of the face to contour the face
a very bronze colour on the lips
dark brown/black eye shadowing
dark brown eye colouring
gold/bronze gems either side of the black centred line
I used 'Fullers Earth' over the hair to add texture on to the hair where I bled the gold/bronze colours on too.
I then created a fish tail plait to the to tie in tribal effects but then keeping it simple again.
I used a lot of jewellery with in this image because as I have previously stated in my other posts jewellery has been a big part of tribes histories.
