Make up and Hair ideas for Quentin

Quentin has been hiding from the others for a long time he has a few scratches and scars from running and being attacked from the zombies he has very pale skin, his health is not very good due to the lack of food and water. His hair is not very neat and styled he lets it stay messy




Hair ideas for Claudia

Claudia is insane and a vampire, she is feeling like an outcast from the others, she does not care about her appearance and is more concerned about getting food, for her hairstyle I wanted to make something messy and carefree



Make up ideas for Claudia

I want to keep it simple for Claudia's make up, I want her to have very pale skin, big under eye circles, her skin looking almost blue and dead, as well as some blood and a few scars, I was researching few images to give me more ideas of how I want my character to look.




Claudia, Quentin - The Walking Dead

The Walking Dead

- Main character sheriff who woken up from the coma to find out the world is being rules by zombies

- The remaining people struggling to adapt to the world with zombies, they are afraid of the other people who are even more dangerous than them

- The first season revolves around quit and nice countryside

- Very intriguing, there is constant fear of being zombified, or killed by others

- The apocalypse and zombies coming to life appears very realistic and could happen in real life


Quentin 

- Quentin is one of the survivors from the apocalypse and is hiding constantly from the others, he is always with Claudia and has never been seen by others due to his fear of being attacked and becoming a zombie

- He is always in the countryside away from the others, in a small house that looks like a shed, he is becoming pessimistic and hopeless that he wont be able to survive as a human, however he has an urge to go outside and socialize with others

- He is wearing slightly ripped and dirty clothes because after apocalypse he did not go outside, however Claudia's imagination, makes him appear the way she wants him to look, Quentin has a few scars and scratches from running away from the other zombies, he looks very tasty to Claudia and soon may become her meal

Key word - Disguise 

- Quintin is never seen by anyone apart from Claudia, he is always with her hiding from others

- I was researching a lot of movies, TV series to find out more about other characters that always seemed to be hiding and using a disguise from other one of them is 'Vampire Diaries'

- Quintin can never be seen by others only Claudia in her imagination, so disguise is a perfect word to describe him because of his tendency to hide and not be seen by others.


Claudia

- Claudia is a zombie outcast, she does not seem to get along with the other zombies after the apocalypse the only friend that she has is Quentin, she calls him her boyfriend however she can not socialize with others so she slowly becomes more insane

- Claudia looks like insane hospital patient but as a zombie, her hair is messy and because shes an outcast she stops bothering about her appearance and is only concerned what Quentin thinks of her 

- She is becoming more weak and hungry as she is unable to feed on anyone because she never goes outside and is feeling depressed 

- Claudia is slowly starting to think that her only food can be Quentin


Key word - Black shadow

- She is always alone in her house, hated by everyone apart from Quentin, she feels like the outcast and develops depression

- She only goes out in the nights to see if she can find herself food, she is too afraid to go outside in the day because she feels like she is being judged by others

- She is very quite girl, but has evil side to her that will be discovered as her patience of being left out will come to an end

Recreating the make-up look

To recreate this look I started by applying Illamasqua foundation from the center of the face working outwards, because I wanted more of a luminous finish rather than matte as show in the picture I did not apply any powder on top of the foundation. For the cheeks I used kryolan blush palette in colour red, for the lips I used Kryolan super-colour in red and gold, placing the colour red in the middle of the lips and a little bit of gold colour on the cupids bow. Moving on to the eyes I started by applying illamasqua black eye shadow in the crease of the eye as well as under and blended it out. for the inner corner and the whole lid I used super colour in gold. Under the eyes I lightly dusted some shimmer from the Illamsqua pigment to create that very dewy look. Lastly I coated eye lashes with white supercolour using disposable wand and for the eye brows I used light brown shade from the palette.
