I was very happy with the wound I
created on the face. By using
cotton wool pads I was able to
create texture for the base of the
open wound. I had never used this
technique before so it was fun
learning new tricks that I can
further use in my film opening.
I decided that the
forehead was looking a
bit bare so I added a
small, simple wound to
add to the zombie effect.
Although it doesn’t look
very good close up, it
looks a lot more realistic
in the head shots later
Here is a close up of the nose
area. It didn’t go exactly how
I wanted it to however I'm
sure over time I can perfect
my method and source
YouTube videos to make it
come out more how I’d like.
Here are some more high quality flash shots of the open wound mouth
Overall I was very
happy with how this
makeup turned out.
Obviously for the
real film opening I
will do both sides of
the face however I
just wanted a
comparison to see
the difference.
