Hi Maria,

I have used purple, in this case Kryolan – it could be any purple though. I have also used Kryolan UV red, for all other UV colours I prefer Diamond FX colours, but this UV red is unique to Kryolan. also I have used black & white.

Hi Kathy,

I sue the detailz lots to paint fast dots, I don’t think they would work as well for outlining or other brushwork.
I generally use a # 2 or 4 round brush for outlining and a cake paint such as paradise black, TAG white….or one of the many others out there.
I’m not familiar with Violet moon? although there is a store called violet moon works ? they sell paradise paint.

I hope that helps.

Hi Ambah
With so many really good paint products out there now, which ones do you use and especially the outlining ones..? I’ve been using violent moon for painting and Detailz for outlining . The outling ones don’t go on very well and I end up using a separate brush for them anyway. Do you have any suggestions?
Cheers. Kathy

Hi Sylvia,

Many artists have come up with some great dinosour designs, its just a matter of looking. The places I mentioned in the blog above all feature steps by steps of many variaities including dinosaours.
I have seen some great variations of the T-Rex and other dinosaurs, Philladelphia may have some in her books, the wolfe brothers have fantastic boy designs in thier books, as does Mark Reid who has some great DVDs.
Alternately you can do a google image search for dinosaours and use these images to create your own designs.
The dino mask above satisifies many of my customer requests for a dinosaur, I adapt the design a little according to specific requests.
I hope that helps.

Illusions magazine is a UK based publication. there are some stores in Australia that sell Illusion, and American facepainter, including amygrigg.com.au I’m not sure who else stocks them – if anyone can share other links for Aussie stockists of face painting mags that would be great.
The publications that I listed in my post are the only ones I am currently aware of, if anyone else knows of others I would be interested in hearing about them.

Philadelphia, congratulations on your wedding this Sunday, my nephew is getting married on Saturday, so I hope the days are wonderful for you both. I got onto the http://www.brushstrokesmag.com site and subscribed, it’s great. Can you also let me know what printed Face & Body Painting magazines like Illusions (USA) are available here in Australia. Also a list of magazines available (worldwide) would be great too.

Hi
thanks Philadelphia for fixing the small glitches in my post!
I didn’t include written instructions for the step by step as I felt the steps were self explnatory.
Please ask questions, if any steps are not clear.

Happy Painting

Hi, I couldn’t find any written instructions either, just the 5 pics. But I think I can use the pics to help me paint the dinosaur face. Thanks. For Sylvia… You can use different colours and change the number and/or position of horns to make different dinosaur faces. They work well for boys at fairy/princess parties and I call them dragon faces. The boys love it! So do I! I love to paint different faces to suit their personalities.

I’m with the last two. I only see the 1st image and the Final one. The only thing that happens when you click on them is it brings up the enlarged image.
I even tried Ambah’s website to see if it was there…

Hi,
I’m signed up to receive e-mails from Face Painting Tips. I clicked on the link for Step By Step instructions for the dinosaur. I’m not sure if I’m missing something, but I only found two pictures to the step by step instructions..the first step then it jumps to the finished face. Is there another link to click on for the other steps?

Thanks!
Jo

went to look at the brushstrokes website and this is what i read ” Due to the economic downturn Brushstrokes® has temporarily ceased trading “, so this link is no longer viable….love the dinosaur mask, thanks Ambah
