Creating Contemporary Character

These are the final images of my contemporary character, the Emcee. I am really pleased with the outcome, the design photos really well against a black background. I made a last minute amendment to my design... whilst I created my character, my course leader, Sharon, suggested I extend the brow to follow the contour of the cheek so I rounded off my model's brow into a spiral. 
I'm glad I worked the look around my model because I was able to achieve better results this way. As for room for improvement... if I were to start over, I would perhaps try and keep the curls really bouncy, securing them better with hairspray. Also, working in a warm studio and the heat of the photography light meant the supra colours were warm on the face and extra greasy to work with. I know setting them with powder is difficult (I've tried many a time) but I could look into other methods of setting supra colours.
