♥ 7 hours, two shoots, Venom and Marilyn
Whew! Am I beat or what! Today was a long day working on my family. I didn't have all the supplies I needed to make Gage's Venom fully come to life, but the basics are there. All you need is a good eye, and steady hand, and a patient model. I luckily had all three today. So without my bald cap, and latex appliance, I had to roll on and just do my best. So here he is in all his glory:

Next, was my gorgeous sister. I had the picture that I love and wanted to try and implicate. So it began with prepping a corset a week ago. After that, then it was hair extension time. After applying all of those and setting the hair into curls, it was time for makeup. Mind you, my sister decided to watch Trauma, Life in the ER the whole time I was working, so I was very distracted. I finally finished the face and now had to suit her up and style her hair. Next was time to shoot. We were going strong, then, BAM! Light bulb exploded, and sliced my hand. Nearly stabbing me in the chest with a shattered piece. HA! It was insanity! So after a few "holy shit I could have died" laughs, we went back to shooting. So now is the final image:

We will be posting some before and afters with this set, so stay tuned. Amazing what a good skeletal system can do with a little hair and makeup. ;)
