Creating Miss Havisham - Continuity; Part 2

Here are the images from my second Miss Havisham continuity assessment;


As you can clearly see, my images didn't turn out as good as the first half of the assessment. The left side of the face give me some slight trouble, I found it very difficult to blend it all together which lead to me adding on more make-up, I now know this was the wrong thing to do. Although it's all placed the same as the first half, because of that mistake, it's made it look very different I believe. I think that I did the hair well to recreate it as similar as possible, however, I didn't colour the hair enough as the time before so it does also look different. Overall though, I'm happy with how its turned out though.

These are my images from the first part of the Miss Havisham continuity assessment;


I'm really pleased with how my images turned out. They weren't too over the top with the make-up but I think I made it stand out enough to give the right effect.
