“It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. And sometimes you didn't want to know the end… because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing… this shadow. Even darkness must pass.”
- JRR Tolkien

Drafting and Planning/Organisation: Seven Deadly Sins Make-Up, Pride

This one was my favourite to do; it was incredibly tricky since you have to be so precise. But I think Pride turned out the best, in terms of both the make-up, poses and photography!
So, as you know, I've taken this as inspiration from Klaire de Lys' Seven Deadly Sins make-up series.
I'd think this look would be very tricky to do again on someone else's face; but when it comes to the actual production, I'll do a looser, easier version of these I think. Or do them as best I can at least. After Pride there's just Sloth and Wrath to have a go at!


Pride:











I couldn't pick which ones are the best so just posted a load of them on here. I just love the use of lighting and the angles in a lot of these pics, if I do say so myself. The idea with the chain is that, with the sin of pride, you're chained to thinking of how you're right and other's are wrong in every way possible; the chain idea could be used on all the Sins, but it looked most appropriate here. I think mine is rather different from the original; but I like that about it :)

Here's Klaire's original tutorial of Pride:
