Description
Alright, here is the first application of my Grendel prosthetics for my Multi-piece Appliance class. I did the application on myself, which was rough, even with the considerable help of my talented girlfriend Redqueen2112, aka Jessi.The makeup consists of a baldcap, a face and neck piece, a lower lip piece and eye pieces. This is derfinitely the most extreme makeup I've done, and although I'm happy with it, I know I can do better.
I used a rubber latex baldcap, foam latex appliances and PETG vacu-formed eye pieces. It's all painted with a combination of PAX and RMGP. It took about 5 hours to apply, which was rough becuse I was practically blind and forced to breath through my mouth.
Even though I did the application 2 days ago, I'm still picking prosaide of me. Yuck.
Despite all this, it was a rewarding experience to finally see my vision come to life after spending 6 months on this project.

Thank you so much.
You have no idea how much I would love to. (As if I needed an excuse to want to come to Scotland in the first place)
If there is any way we can collaborate, PLEASE let me know.

If you ever have any photographs of your prosthetics/make-up work that you want touched up, like having backgrounds removed, colours enhanced, or anything like that, just give me a shout. As long as there's plenty of space to work with around the subject of the image, it's easy enough to make it look like it was part of a professional shoot.

Nice job. I think it really did come out nicely. Were you able to get more than this basic expression from it?

Thanks, but unfortunately the make-up has little movement to it. To distort my face to this extreme I had to make the foam real thick, so its pretty hard to move. I'm happy with the design, but I'm getting sick of its impracticality. Well, lesson learned.
