Home Mixing Makeup Foundation and More! Classes #45-53 (Stan Winston School Diary #23)
Oh so sorry for neglecting everyone on this! 2021 for started out very untidy with my mind feeling all over the place. I had a goal of ordering stuff for sewing a moooostasche from some FX shops were pausing the mail with the big American snowstorm hitting Texas. That goal has returned and for now I wanted to share you what I have learned in these lessons I call “blockbuster film directing in a box.”
For my little self assigned “homework” I do with these lessons, I wanted to try something unique. In these classes, you learn how one looks older with makeup. How about looking younger? Makeup tends to make me scaly. What if…? Ah, yes!
I found a few ingredients in my kitchen, mixing them in a jar with some drugstore foundation for my skin coverage. My wearing this feels a little goofy. Hope you don’t mind my being a model for the skin stuff because it is so luminous in reality. Maybe someday, my secret recipe will get used in a mass produced makeup collection? Who knows!
I am working on a bunch of stuff and wearing myself thin lately mentally, not literally HAHA as I am still enjoying those breakfasts. Mmm, omelets! Catching up on my lessons here is a must but in the meantime, let’s discuss the classes I took!
Fake beard application, hair knotting, airbrush painting galore including on silicone skin, metallic paints!
The hair classes to me are always the most enjoyable with my love of learning about wigs and extensions pieces.
As far as digital art, I have really come a long way from around 2015-2016 when I began learning about it. My strength was always music learning and I felt rehearsing little drawings digitally and animating helped. I love getting extra lessons I can use reinforcing anything I do digitally from the airbrushing courses. Same techniques, different setup. You can never stop learning. The only way to go from here is up! With my having never before been familiar with airbrush painting, watching it is incredible.
Hopefully for my next entry, I will sew that ‘stashe for you friends out there.
