Crimson Nanxa Demon

I finally got to do a proper shoot using a new prosthetic yesterday, the makeup was pretty straightforward and the shoot itself was just a wandering about town sort or deal.

Blue Hoana Demon

My last shoot for some time using this particular prosthetic - I absolutely love how the piece turned out and so far the two other shoots I've done with it turned out great. This shoot reminded me that some shoots are very much a "lightning in a bottle" moment, using this particular shade of blue with this prosthetic, with a red dress and using this particular model, even down to the choice in the dark blue lines in the makeup, seemed to have worked absolutely perfectly in my eyes.

Golden Hoana Demon.

With how expensive this cowl is to produce I like to make sure I'm using it for a shoot I know is going to turn out good. I'd had the idea for a golden Demon for some time, I just never got around to it until now.

I wasn't sure it was actually going to work once I started pre-painting the cowl. I used the gold body paint on skin before - worked great, but once I start on the foam latex it looked totally watery and thin with nearly no color. Once it dried though it looked awesome - I know body paint does alter it's colour a little from wet to dry, but this was night and day different.

And then once I started in on the pictures, the gold look totally washed out and almost an weird off beige, luckily a little tweak in post and the gold popped right out.

The cowl worked really well with this shoot as it almost has a bit of a crown-like feel to it. I didn't want to mess it up with any other colours either, it's just straight gold body paint.
