Its Only 365 Days
23/6366: DARTH MAUL
23 JAN 12
Okay before you start asking me or telling me about the movie...I am NOT a Star Wars fan. I know this make-up would suggest otherwise, but trust me, if the world were depending on me to answer a quiz question about what happened in this movie, we would be screwed.
My brother used to work as the manager of Borders (long before it went down) and as part of the perks of being the manager, they got to keep all the music you heard playing on the speakers in store and all the movie posters and stuff once they were done with whatever promotion. I loved him working there because not only did I get to use his discount which doubled at Christmas, but he would bring home cases of CDs and boxes of posters. One particular day, he came home with about 30 Star Wars mini posters and this was one of them.
I love face paint. Around Halloween each year, after it ends, I hit up the last minute bin sales and grab all the paint I can. I'm all about transforming my face into something different because having taken so many pictures of my normal face in my 365's past, it gets boring, so I have to find ways to make it interesting, and this is one of the ways.
This took about 20 minutes to apply. I used obviously red and black paint, and 2 paint brushes, one with a small tip, and the other with a flat tip. I probably could have smoothed this out a lot more than I did, but I do it more for fun and less about the fine details of perfecting the look.
