Nolan has been asking me for while now to paint his face so with Halloween coming up and him wanting to be Iron Man I decided to let the creative juices fly and paint his face. Let me just say that this experience was a fun one. Painting a little man’s face is nowhere the same as painting your own. Keep that in mind when you give this a try.
The first thing I did was outline what I thought would be the face of Iron Man. Once again remember that his face was a lot smaller with little room to work with.
Then comes the yellow. With painting his face, I just bought the clown makeup set from Walmart.
Adding in the red and going over some small spots with black.
His eyes were the hardest. He was a little scared I was going to get it in his eyes. Of course with an adult you would be able to get much closer to the eyes and fill in the blanks a little better.
Finished off with little white outlines and I was done. I’m quite proud of the way it turned out, and Nolan cannot wait for Halloween to be here to get his face painted again. Overall, he did amazing and sat still the entire time I was painting his face.
