Emaciation On My Face

Some basic pictures of emaciated individuals as research:




I also found this nifty little chart that shows where to place highlights and shadows.  Obviously my face is not the same as the picture, so I couldn't copy it anyway, but the reasoning behind putting lines and shadows in certain places was very helpful to back up the primary research:

Now comes the part where I put it on my face!
The lines denoting where things need protrude or disappear the most

The shadow to sink the skin

The highlight to raise the bones

The finished product
I think I ended up looking more like a street urchin, but hey, now I can be in costume when one of my friends drags me to see the new "Les Miserables" movie.
