Technical Post - Scarification

Following Kierons lecture we had a similar practical to last weeks where we used different materials to create patterns on the skin. I had the idea to do raised circles using string and latex but the results didn't come out as I wanted them to. I had difficulty blending the edges into the skin to make it look more realistic and the string was a little too frayed in texture to look like raised skin. 

I used tuplast to create lines across the arm to look like scars which I'm semi pleased about. The colouring needs a lot of work which is something I usually find difficult to do especially when using products like latex and tuplast. I will continue to try out other materials and work on my blending and colour matching skills!
