Thank you SO much for the feedback! I like the idea of the fluid leaking. I had not thought of that at the time. I also had not considered VARIED bruising. I did the reddish-color for a sort of "inflammation" look. I looked for some product to use for the coloring, but was fairly limited. I have recently relocated to a MUCH larger city and may be able to find some special effects supplies locally. I LOVE Ben Nye. I plan to continue practicing to refine technique. I loved doing this!
I can definitely see the inflammation look you were intending - it makes the "injury" look very fresh, if that makes sense. And I'm glad you loved doing this because it really does look like you have a talent for it, so I hope we'll be seeing more of your work. If you don't find a supplier locally for Ben Nye products, I've found Camera Ready Cosmetics to be reliable and quick as far as online suppliers go.
Thank you again. Also, thanks for the link. I am always willing to order online if I have to. This model was a girl I was in school with. She loved modelling for this. I need to get more models, and I will definitely be doing some more. I was in the military, so I am also interested in moulage. Will be doing more soon!
