Digital makeup practice---drag queen-ing.

[nerdvain]

So, I sent out a plea to all my good friends asking for people to either allow me to take a picture of their face or use a picture they already had to practice my digital makeup skills. I got...nada.
Except one person--a male friend of mine. He's always been on the alternative side of society's general and sexuality roles, and he asked, "if you really wanna give yourself a challenge, why not glamourize me? Make me into a drag queen!"
I was a tad taken aback, but I, being an open minded guy, obliged. I researched drag style and makeup and gave it a whirl.
I thought I would document my efforts, and if all went well, I might as well (with his consent) upload a video for all to see.
Without further ado, here it is:



A before and after is at the end of the video.

That was fascinating nerdvain. I have no experience with colorization but I could learn a lot from this. I couldn't always tell what you were doing. I'd have to pause and review. But very professional from my POV. You could make a training tutorial from tihs process or one like it, but I suppose that would run about 3 times as long. Muy Bueno.
