Face-up #3

Mar 12, 2013

Watch Thread
    1. Here's the face-up I recently did for my Soom Ace, Tuulikki, who is a fox girl. I'm pleased with the way the colors came out, though I definitely think I need some more precise brushes as there's quite a bit of slop, imo.

      Comments and critiques are greatly appreciated. If anyone has advice on how to clean up acrylics without scrubbing off the layers below it I'd love to hear it~ I had a heck of a time with her lip line and I'm still not pleased with it.

    2. Great work! :) The only thing I could see to improve is the colour used to shadow the lip mabey? Look at other pictures of mouths in faceup and use lighter colours and as you said, more precise brushes :)

    5. Great job! I find that the eyes are pretty nice, but the black line between the lips is too strong, and the dots on the side of the mouth are to dark and too big. Maybe you can try the mouth again, without the line and the dots. Besides that, the lips are fine, well achieved.

      Another thing, I believe the eyelashes are too long. But that is more something of personal preference.

      The eyes are cool, I really like the orange/red shadow, and the two spots... are those the eyebrows? They look great to me.

    6. If you wanted to keep the lip line, I think just reducing it to a lighter brown instead of black would help. You might also want to darken the eyelid line just a tad. Overall I enjoy the foxiness of the face-up - it looks like you definitely put some thought into what you wanted this girl to look like.

    7. Very cool design. Like others have said the black is a little stark. Brown might work better, and against the orange and red it might still give the dark effect your looking for. Maybe just a tad more blending at the eye edges too. It looks really cool though-great work :)

    8. She looks really cute! I love how the eyes turned out. The only thing I think you need to fix is the black lip line. Use a very dark reddish orange instead, so it looks more natural, as if it is part of the lips. The black is out of place.

    9. I overall like the look of your girl, I'd suggest thinner, more precise brushes like you said and tweaking the lip line just a bit if you want to keep it. I usually use just a darker shape of whatever color I'm using in the crease of the lips instead of lining them, but that's me. ^_^

    11. Super cute! I love the eyebrows and how her face up really brings out her eyes's
      Like PuffyPuffers said, delicate lines on her brows eyes and lips would really look good.
