Claudia Final Look

Claudia she is a loner who isolates herself from the outside world. She gets inspiration for her look from magazines and films and also has an imaginary boyfriend called Quentin. She is very possessive of Quentin and will sometimes keep him prisoner and can be quite abusive towards him.

After playing around with a few ideas and creating some face charts i decided to go with a doll inspired character. I mentioned before that creepy dolls coming to life in movies has always been something that scared me and that's sometimes where you draw inspiration for great creations. 



I went for a typical white porcelain face as that is an obvious trademark for a doll, as for the blush i didn't want to focus on the apples as it made the look a little more clownish along with the style of lip i chose. I previously blogged about a fashion story called Japanese Noveau Glam Goth that included a really harshly applied contour so i attempted this kind of effect which unfortunately softened up A LOT on camera and it wasn't until i looked at the pictures later on that day that i noticed! I applied bottom lashes as well as top lashes to give a wide eye effect which also gives it that creepy look. 

For the hair i stuck with tight girly curls that i was planning on brushing out to give more of a wave but after seeing the finished results i decided to stick with it. I also made an over sized bow using black lace to accessorize the hair which you can see more clearly in the image below.
