Creating Quentin....
Face charts...
Products used;
Blue, Body Shop hair chalk.
Shaping hair wax.
Pintail comb.
Hairspray- to prolong colour stay and hold shape of hair.
My hair design for Quentin is quite simple like Claudia's. I created quite theatrical, outgoing make-up designs for them both so I thought a simple, sleek, wet look hair design would be the most effective due to its simpleness. I also added a blue chalk to the hair as I thought it was really effective against the red themed facial colour.
Applying the look....
I chose my devil inspired look for for Quentin. It was difficult to decide on a final look as I thought the more simple looks on the males I researched were much more effective. However I thought I would take advantage of this particular brief as I defiantly prefer the more theatrical, over dramatic looks compared to the perfected well groomed ones.
I was aiming for a messy, unkept, boisterous effect when applying the make-up. This was difficult to portray through the face chart but I decided that my version of Quentin would be the stereotypical 'bad boy'. An archetype that is always attracting attention due to his handsome, good looks but is more or less always told not be trusted! This aspect also linked well with Claudia's paranoid side as she always suspects he's up to no good.
My Kryolan stipple sponge coarse-pore was very effective and useful when applying the look. I used it to apply the the red tear like marks under the eyes (using red MAC lipmix) and also added some just under the eyebrow to. I also used it to colour the nails and fingers, it helped create an upperclass dirt effect where the hand and arm look intentionally dirty/dark but it all ties in with the overall devil/careless/rough persona.

Model: Lucas Creighton
Lucas has light combination skin with no shown contradictions.
He is a little younger so I ensured I used more gentle, sensitive skin products to avoid any irritation of the skin.
