Simple green base layer and pre-painted ears added, the mask would prove to be a nightmare in blending past this point, but thankfully I was saved by a little help from my friends, and you can see the results in the next pic!
Things I learned from this whole affair; Well, for starters, I'm pretty sure I'm done with applying masks to myself. Not only was it incredibly difficult to apply a pre-painted mask in the mirror (I was peeling large chunks off it with sticky spirit-gum fingers!), but the blending later was ultimately stressful too!
From now on, i'll only be applying masks with all of my time and ability to other people, and I won't be rushing. :)
BAM! How do you like the Goblin Trade Prince?
The whole look was aiming for an almost ridiculous wedge-shaped silhouette of the head, with a small body, bedecked in as much false gold as possible, as if this little goblin had just come into ridiculous wealth, and was going to show everyone!
This pic was taken near the end of the night, and despite some wear and tear, the whole thing held up a lot better than I thought it would under alcoholic conditions! :p
Thanks to awesome LED blacklights, my blacklight sensitive contact lenses shone like a corrupted sun! The mask blending turned out fantastic, and the whole outfit really pulled together better than I thought it would, all the way from the fence chain wrapped round one arm, to the mask itself.
