Aesthetics Male practice face up

I see a big improvement for him this time! All your colors are working in good harmony together and I think the lighter blushing on the rosy cheeks and forehead look great with the more dark/ colorful eyelids, lips, brows.
How are you feeling about how he's coming together?

 

That's excellent! I'm definitely cheering for you! I still love this sculpt very much. So handsome! Will you put him together soon with body, eyes and wig and everything?

 

First of all it's resin. You sand so much off these bad boys of you're really messing it up THAT bad.

I like the softness around the lips, I like how you're adding the blues like at the eye lids. I too am trying to add cools to give some realism to the blushing.

 

Love the colors especially the purple! So much improvement! What color eyes are you planning for him?

 

Yup! The magic eraser is basically that, an eraser and anything worse comes off even with like 3000 grit sand paper if it is truly awful. Not to mention isopropyl alcohol. People have taken dye out with that kind of stuff, so don't be afraid.

Any art where you take risks you'll learn a a bit faster because you make the mistake and learn how to avoid it.

 

I've used magic eraser very very lightly on a face up. It great for pre face up but at the end of the day it's an abrasive and takes a fraction of a layer of as you go. if I can just wipe it with a damp cloth I won't use the magic eraser. But I'm paranoid. Part of why I'm sticking with gouache for now so I don't have to get desperate to remove paint. Not masterful enough to trust myself with acrylics.

Also give the little kneaded erasers a shot! You can shape the ends to what ever size or shape you need. It feels like a life hack once you get the hang of it.
