Funky Faceup time

I was bored and felt that Cel needed a new look, something that fit his character more. So just look at the photos below, since I have realized I'm not the best at explaining things. Might provide a sentence or two on trying to explain what I'm doing.


Started to remove the previous face up with rubbing alcohol. Work outside because the smell was just plain nasty strong. Also wear a mask and/ or gloves (if your skin is sensitive or you want to play it safe as the rubbing alcohol made my hand drier then the Sahara.)

This was my first attempt...

It didn't go too well as I ended up wiping it off.

After a one day, I got most, if not all of the basic blushing done.

Kept messing around with the head in all honestly and ended up getting to this point. The watercolor pencils failed me as none of it would show up, probably something went wrong with the sealing.

Morning shot of the next day.

Kept layering the colors, sealing inbetween. I tried using paints for the eyebrows and eyelashes. The eyes look messy, I can do better, but I'm not going to wipe it off as I am too lazy.

AND THAT'S ALL FOLKS! Sealed it twice, and waited for it to dry. I then glossed the lips and waterline.

The Wig Making Thing Part 2!

It didn't take two months this time. Alright, back to that wig making process that I documented. So, after combing out the wefts, I ironed them with a regular clothing iron on the wool setting. I also read that using a hair iron also works. Next, I began to glue on small sections of the hair so I was able to control the thickness and the length. I glue the top section of the wefts down to the wig cap.

Kept gluing the wefts around the the wig cap...

Gluing and gluing...

Till I reached the the hair part, and then started gluing the hair down by gluing it in the opposite directions and then folded the weft over. I used glue to hold down the wefts the stick up.

While making the wig, I get a little distracted and sorta impatient and began to style it....
