Description Started off Obsidian Tear, changed the colors and I liked the dark red better, I may upload the other one too idk.

Painted eyebrow, eyelashes, makeup and blood, except for the splat. Also did some painting on the eye itself and Iris. Brushing up on my painting ^.^

Thank you so much! At first I wanted it to look like tar, but idk the shades of black and grey were against me lol. So I made it a deep red It looked sooo much better.

Killer job, dear.

You know what I find works best for blood? Try making a separate layer. Paint the blood on with your brush at 100% opactiy so that you don't have a hundred different levels of crimson. Once you've got all of the blood added, change the blending mode of the layer to "Linear Burn" at about 75% opacity. The opacity level will depend on the skin color and darkness/lightness of the pic, but that's worked best for me so far.

Awesome! Thx for the Tip! The Blood is actually 3 diff layers, 2 for the drip one is a dup layer and one for the overflow in the eye itself. The top layer of the drip has some blending and opacity change. I really didn't have a tecnique, not that I can remember, I just kinda messed around with it till it looked ok.

I have a prob with the splat, Since that was a brush in itself, I wish i would have messed with it a lil more to make it look like it was on the skin better.

But hey, we learn and do better next time

You know I love your tips and I can't thank you enough, I will defiantly try that technique next time!!
