Show and Tell #3 March - May 2013

Ooooh, I'm first! This is my thread now :p



He's my little brother. He's almost as enthusiastic about me facepainting as I am! He turns 13 this month and asked me to do some gorefest for him and two friends :p

I love how the painting combined with his hoodie completely warps his face :p

Wow, Shiranshoku, that is really creepy And a great job! It's nice you have a willing "victim," eeerrrr, brother to paint on.

omg it scared me ! haha

So here are my roses. what do you think?

Love that skull!!

And those roses?! Amazing!!

Skulls and roses! Both are awesome!!

Beautiful roses, SweetIllusions! Love that top you are wearing too!

Was just reading Valerie's comment saying our safe corner when i scrolled down to see the skull AHHHHH that was scarily good!! great job Shiranshoku!!

SweetIllusions love your roses!!

Yeah, a cozy corner with a monster in it!!!



(Shiranshoku, you did a marvelous job! just teasing about the monster in the cozy corner!)

Ah ah ah that was my thought precisely Valerie! hi hi hi no offence to your good work Shiranshoku!!

I did practice on my arm last week...









My daugther as a clown...

Great designs Sneezle that's one beautiful butterfly and I love your flowers! You're lucky to have someone to practice on!

Sneezle, those are all so nice. Love those dots around the butterfly, so perfect. Your daughter is so cute with the clown face. I love the gecko with stencil and that fish is just perfect too!

Thanks. My daugther doesn't always want me to paint her face so i use my arm very often
Sweet Illusions i just love your roses. Gorgeous!!!

I'd also practice with my new (neon) rainbowcake & rose splitcake. My flowers arn't so good yet but i keep practicing. And hold on tigh, i'm going to share a lot of pictures....







My first roses...








Butterfly's...




Rainbow's...

Thanks everybody for all the nice words. I have to say that I just love those one stroke roses (now that I can do that a bit better) I just bought the paradise prisma "fleur" those colors make such beautiful roses. It's my first paradise face paint and I like it, the paint is very colorful but doesnt stain that much and I love the smell!! It smells much better than other paint!!
O this sounds so wierd... Hi my name is Carmen and i'm such an pain-to-holic!

Wow Sneezle, those are all so pretty. I just love your seashorse!

Thanks. I also use the Prisma fleur, love it. I would really like to buy more of the prisma splitcakes, te colours are so bright and lovely. But they are really expensive. The yellow & pink roses are made with my new splitcake roses, love the colours. Your roses are stunning!!!

You're right Sneezle, I also would love some more paradise paint, but they are very expensive. I am thinking about buying the "wild orchid". I hear so much about that color so that would be the first one I would buy. But i'm gonna wait. I just spend alot on some beautiful mama clown glitter and glittertattoo glitter.

Thanks everyone! He was even scarier in real life, lol.

Sweet Illusions, looooove those roses! Are you happy with the Prisma cakes? I'm considering buying one when my teeny rose cake is empty...

Sneezie, I those hearts! I'm such a girl, LOL

Shiranshoku, great job on your skull, scary Never tried one myself.

Maybe i'm posting to much but i really practiced a lot the last 2 weaks. I saw beautiful daisy's on daisy design, i love her work so i tried a few myself. And i practiced on a pearl chain with shadow. First time i used shadow, quite difficult...











And my first dragon....

Great job everyone! I worked a kid's expo with an awesome painter Valery and my daughter only took a few pics. This one was a very popular design that I was asked to paint off her banner. I had my own designs but, you know kids! These girls were all together and HAD to have the same design... all the boys had either skulls,spidey man or ninja turtles. The girls were this pretty mask, hello kitty and butterflies all night! I literally could have brought 3 designs for boys and 3 for girls.

(I started my comments below and left to eat dinner...came back and a bunch more are posted...so my comments here lag behind, and don't cover all the great work I'm seeing in this thread)

Some great work there, Sneezle! Beautiful flowers, despite what you seem to think I especially like the 2nd one (at the top of page 2) What kind of brush did you use and how did you make the center of the flower look 3D-ish? Liquid bling?

Carmen, you are in good company with the rest of us paint-aholics!
