Estella Facecharts

This is a quick face chart i created for the look of Estella it isn't a very detailed face chart. I wanted to do a face chart referring back to the bruising on the face which i had previously done as a test for the look of Estella. I added a slight bit of grazing and bruising on the side of the face of the face chart to add to more than just the black eye. when looking back at this look with the bruising i decided not to go any further and run with it for a final look as i wanted to perceive Estella at a different time. i also felt that the beating of her husband played quite a small role in the book which wasn't so relevant to the end look and time period i wanted to have her in. The face chart has not come out very clear with my scanner and the paper of the face chart is a bit rubbish not allowing the colours to have there full pigment.


Here is a second face chart for Estella this is a face chart building up to a final look for my character. I had previously decided i wanted to set Estella within the book and the film at the point where she is in her late teens early 20s and when pip has just finished his black smiths apprenticeship and is called back to the house by Miss Havisham, and back into Estella's life again. This time in the book and film I think is an intense part because you as the audience are not sure of what is going to happen with pip being back in Estella's life. we also go from seeing Estella and both pip as young children to adults and its a big change which draws you further into the plot. With my face chart it didn't completely turn out how i wanted it to the eyebrows came out to strong i wanted them a lot softer as within the Victorian period as we know they didn't like to show they were wearing make up. Because Estella is still of such as young age i wanted to show the purity within her skin still and her underlining beauty. This face charts shows a natural eye with a hint of mascara and a light almost skin toned eyeshadow, also a light blush to the apples of the cheeks and slight pink/red pigment to the lips. This is the kind of make up look i want to go for with my final styling and look of Estella.
