'FISH'

Final Shot for 'Fish'
The 4th and Final design for 'Fish', is probably my favourite look out of all of my deigns. The outcome of the makeup is close to perfect, and i am very proud of the outcome. I made a few small changes to my Facechart; first of all changing the shape of the scales on the design. Originally I had planned to do diamond shaped scales on the face, but i changed the detail into oval shapes. That's because it was more realistic and gave a softer effect. In all honesty, I would only change a few aspects of the look. The first one being the hair; I should have applied an even coverage of the hairspray and water to the hair, as you can see that it is not slicked back evenly, and is very noticeable on the right side, The other thing i would improve is making the scales darker. Off camera the scale effect looks amazing, but they don't appear too strong on camera, and you cant actually see the detail too well.
I am really happy with the way the eyes, and lips came out, i feel that the pale blue tones i used on my model compliment my models complexion perfectly and look especially effective with the darkness of her brows and hair. 
One of the small additions i made to the design was applying scale- like sequins to design in the scales, i feel that this completes the overall look. It gives the look depth and authenticity, I feel that it is recognisable as fish inspired. I think that the aspects of pink that the sequins provide, give a vibrancy to design. 
I am also really happy with the contouring; the highlighting in particular. It doesn't really show up very well on camera, but the effect looked really nice. It conveyed the oily, wet, glossiness i had intended.


In this image you can see the detail of the scales alot better, but the detail is still really faint from the brightness of the lights. Her hair looks alot better too, you cant see the uneveness on the right side; it looks very sleek. 

I know that the lights in this shot are way too bright, but i really liked the angle; which i couldn't replicate, they just didn't look the same! 

I love this image, the makeup and her expression really gives the look character and feeling to it. The Hair, again is the only problem; which is a recurring theme i seem to possess throughout the entirety of this project. I need to focus more on my attention to detail, 



My Model, Halena Morgan, was also the perfect model for this look. She has a subtle, ethereal beauty to her appearance and i feel that it fits in really well with the direction i was aiming for. Other than a few alterations that were made and improvements that could have been i don't think that it matters. This is by far the best work I have produced, and am very proud of it. I feel that it conveys what i wanted exceedingly well.
