Below is the kit and progression pics through to finished pieces. There are some glaring errors like the eyebrows are shaggy but not grey like the hair and the ears aren't too visible and clumsily shaded to match the rest of the skin tone. It's ageing taken to the nth degree so i guess the next step is only ageing 10 years, then 20 etc.
This is me, sans makeup. All pics taken in my room using an angled lamp to help with the highlights and shadows.
The inspiration.
Kit used
Picking out highlights in white and mixing some of my foundation (slightly darker than the usual Ivory) with a tiny bit of soluble black to start building up the shadows occurring when I screw up my face.
Adding more black to the skin tones and deepening the shadows, paying attention not to forget the neck and ears.
With a little more black..and a headscarf. Spraying the front bit of my hair with dry shampoo made it look grey and brittle. Not forgetting to fleck the lips with white, adding some red eye liner to look more bloodshot and frail.

Turn the pics black and white for the finished product. Voila! Old Kerry!
