ELAINE MONTGOMERY

This was my final for my 2 week intensive special effects makeup course. We learned how to create life casts, sculpt and cast for prosthetics, and how to paint and apply makeups that would be durable for multiple theatrical performances. I wore 9 separate prosthetics for this makeup. I was able to speak and articulate well while wearing this.

​

I was inspired by lizards and dragons, deciding to take a more natural approach to fantasy makeup. I was able to play with form, texture, and negative vs positive spaces to create the silhouette I wanted.

​

For a class demonstration, I recast the main prosthetics and applied them to a model, modifying them slightly to fit the new face. Wig and horns provided by the student.
