If you don't already have the first version of this great book by the fabulous Wolfe brothers, then put this one in your shopping cart immediately! It is a fabulous and highly comprehensive resource for anyone interested in learning or getting better at applying character face pain for Halloween, theater, or just for fun. HOWEVER - If you already own the Wolfe Brother's Extreme Face Painting book - the one with the bright pink cover - don't bother with this one, because with the exception of the revised cover, the contents are exactly the same, and there is no instructional DVD like the first one had. But it is a great book none the less, and would make an excellent gift choice for a makeup artist or face painter.
ummmmm i have to say i expected more. I meant its a good book and i finish it within a day. I feel like you can find these easily on the internet without have to buy a book. I also don't think that anything in it really impress.... Might be just me. I would buy it if you not an internet person but if you are, I would save this money and google it tho.
A brilliant guide to help assist making your cosplay role. who better than have a book written by the Wolfe brothers. Well known for their awesome creations in the face painting world and related arts.Gives a novice like me more confidence to make the whole effect better. like the Orc, cyborg, wolf and mummy all done with face paint too.Have fun with it :-)
Beautiful step-by-step illustrations that my (talented) 12 year old granddaughter could follow. Very clever and varied makeup design with description of techniques. Good for theatre design classes through high school. Very pleased with this purchase.
Great make up looks, specially for children, for a party or for halloween. Detailed instructions. As a make up artist, it is my favorite.
...but doesn't really help to broaden your skills or abilities beyond the basic "use sponges to apply face paint." The step by step instructions are basic and unimpressive. This book is little more than a face painting guide, instead of authentic costume makeup for stage, film, etc. There is nothing "extreme," "creepy," or "cool" about this makeup, it's just some pictures of simple face paint, like for carnivals or fairs.
Purchased for my daughter, she loves it!
As a make-up artist I was excited to get this book for both the little kiddie make-up and the Scary make-ups. The step by step directions make it a no brainer! Can't wait to paint on my lil one!
