Second Character: Two Face

Prior to doing a survey of who people thought I should do, Two Face was one of the characters that first came to mind when thinking of who to do. This is due to the fact that his appearance is not only very iconic but has a lot of things that I would be able to work with when recreating the look in the second part of the video. There are many different portrayals of this character, one being in one of the most recent Batman films 'The Dark Knight' played by Aaron Eckhart. In this film, two face is presented in a very realistic, gruesome way. (Picture below)

Although I wanted to look into many different representations of Harvey Dent\Two Face, this particular one wasn't something that I wanted to achieve as my project does not involve prosthetics and focuses more on body paint. Even though I did not want the piece to appear realistic, I did want it to have a very harsh, clear line down the middle, making the two halves completely separate from each other.

I then discovered the comic 'Dark Victory' which showed Two face in the exact way I wanted my makeup to appear. (pictures below)

My Interpretation:

 When designing what my own interpretation would be, I thought about creating the feeling of something that had been split or broken without presenting this in an obvious way much like the conventional version. I thought that it would be quite effective to incorporate a broken/cracked aspect that would create the illusion that there was some kind of face or different level beneath the cracked surface.
