Assessment Initial Plan


My initial plan for the assessment from looking at my photoshop designs is:

Prosthetic Nose:
I will be doing a prosthetic closed mold nose to extend and straighten Kizzy's nose. Anne Boleyn's nose is longer and more rounded at the bottom than Kizzy's so I will be doing a nose tip and as Kizzy's nose has a slight bend in it and is very slim I will be straightening in out with the prosthetic.

Prosthetic Chin
Anne Boleyn has a longer face than Kizzy's so I will be extending the chin slightly with a closed mold prosthetic chin. It will be a simple piece just to extend the jawline.

Prosthetic Eyebags
The portrait has much bigger more distinctive eyebags than Kizzy has so I will be making two flat piece eyebags. Again they will be relatively simple and small with the bumps that Anne Boleyn had in her eyebags.

Bald Cap
So that I can move the hairline back slightly I will be applying a bald cap. I will be making the bald cap out of bald cap plastic so it can be melted with acetone.

Re-Fronting A Wig
I will be putting a re-front on a cheap wig so that I can change the hairline to what I want. I will be creating a very square hairline to mimic Anne Boleyn's and dressing the hair to all sit at the back of the head

Lips
With foundations and lip colours I will be making the lips look thinner. I don't think I need to do any prosthetics for this as I can do it with basic makeup. I will put the skin colouring over the lips then drawing in new lips with lipsticks.

Texture
The portrait doesn't have much visible texture and is in fact very smooth. Therefore with makeup I will be making the face look as smooth and 2D as possible. I will also not be adding skin texture to the prosthetics as I want everything to look very smooth and slightly unnatural.

Colouring
Kizzy naturally has a pink undertone where Anne Boleyn has a more yellow undertone so along with making the face look very smooth I will be changing Kizzy's undertone to yellow to match the portrait. I will also be copying any highlight and shading areas on the face such as the highlighting on the forehead and the shading around the nose. This will make Kizzy look more like she's in the lighting of the portrait.
