Mottled and Demonic!
Mottled!
What I applied in this attempt was lessons I've learned aligning left and right side stencils, this was composed of 4 different stencils on each side blended to look like one piece.
Another lesson learned from this one; I should have maintained a sharp edge with the black mottling, but I allowed it to bleed into the neighbouring stencil space on the forehead, which still looks good, but probably better sharper.
Final lesson, under-painting a coat of white is great for bringing out of the colour vibrancy, but when laying stencils over the top, some had a tendency to get stuck and peel a bit of the make-up off. Another problem to solve for the near future.

Next up was Fire/Lava with a touch of demonic. More colour experimentation here. Perhaps adapt this for a larger scale demon in future.
She had some cogs at the jaw base and down her neck (not shown properly here) for a mechanical touch. Wish I had got a shot of her with her eyes closed, because the zig-zag continued across it. :)
Lessons applied with this attempt; Very fine gentle spraying with the red, built up with layers, resulted in a fantastic look around the eyes, then followed with mottling of different colours on extreme ends of the face for contrasting.
Lessons learned; Black is an overpowering colour! The bar on the mouth should probably have been a gradient line, rather than a solid block. Ah well!
