When I did Romulan makeup for my sis, I just painted on the forehead ridges with shades of eyeshadow. Everyone thought they were sculpted, just shaded like a graphic art. Also HAVE FUN 😀 I wanna go too!!!!! That’s a really good idea! I might have to test that out later this evening (my eyeshadow/makeup stash in general is pretty limited — I powdered my face in green eyeshadow on Halloween while chanting I should’ve thought this through more — I maaaay be able to make it work though!)
AND I’LL TRYYY this is going to be my very first con ever and I’m pretty nervous*drags you to new mexico for the weekend*
If you can just shade the green or whatever your base makeup is slightly lighter and slightly darker, you’ve got it made 😀 Try mixing colors? I have a ton of different eyeshadows and makeups because I am slightly insane and I love doing alien makeup…but yeah it just takes three shades to make a ridge. One light, one dark, one medium.
AHHH I WISH I COULD GO. I’m a lot farther than Amarillo though. But yeee first cons are exciting! My first was a tiny con with no famous guests, and I only made it to one panel, but I loved it anyway.
Awwww yeahhhhh. I’m totally gonna try that then!
I really only have brown and purple to mix the green with LOL. I can still try and see, I’ve got all day tomorrow c:
(the brown might work pretty well actually hmm hmm)And LOL DUDE. Alien makeup tutorials! That would be so awesome omg
Either could work, but brown would probably be more subtle xD I would go with leaving the light/high part of the ridge less green and more your natural skin color, and then shading the underneath/shadow part with more green and brown, and kind of making the middle a gradient, if that makes sense? And yeah ugh, the ear matching was always the toughest part for me. I like to hide the ear seam with wig LOL.
Experiment I guess ^^ find what works. I would love to see pictures of what you come up with!
