Ambassador leatheroo Posted March 24, 2010 Ambassador Report Posted March 24, 2010 (edited) I havent made a mask in a long time, so i pulled out the 1mm veg tanned calf skin and set to molding. It was formed over my trusty hairdresser head 'Derryn". After it was dry i thought i would try something new and went about trying to create a marble effect. I first airbrushed with black dye and then gave it some soft white streaks. I then grabbed a fine brush and started squiggling some lines. Next i put some blobs of white and used the airbrush with no paint and blew the white blobs around until they were very fine squiggles. I sprayed the mask after the photo was taken with a high gloss sealer, but i can never get a good photo after i put the gloss on. Let me know if you like it!!!

Drac Posted March 24, 2010 Report Posted March 24, 2010 mighty snazzy as usual! Quote frissenfrassenmussafrussen...
Members TTcustom Posted March 24, 2010 Members Report Posted March 24, 2010 Very cool, I especially like the marble effect very much! I have used a feather to do faux painting of marble but not an air brush/gun. Great tip!
