Practising with Collodion

I wanted to experiment with colouring the Collodion so I could create the look of a 'newer' scar on the skin. Initially I did just paint the Collodion onto the skin to create a scar, however I didn't think it looked that good so thought colouring it would be better for my version of the Creature. Below is the final result of my experiment. 

I used the SupraColour palette to add the colour to the scar- using the light and dark red colours. I think that the area around the scar needs  a bit of work to make sure that the edges are blended better and they look more seamless to the skin. I do like how 'angry' the scar looks, I think that just one of these going down the chest/across the neck of my model would look quite good for the Creature. However one element I am apprehensive about is whether it would be comfortable for my model to have this done as Collodion is not nice to remove in areas where there is hair. I will need to make sure in my practises that I cater to the comfort of my model along with not making it too difficult for myself so I can't complete the design in the allotted time.
