Below are some initial face charts that I have done with my ideas for how I want Quentin to look. The top chart shows the idea that I had of his eyes bleeding as a result of being thrown into the thorns like the Prince in the story. I wanted to add in the element of bruising and a cut lip to show that he is being affected by Mrs Laderman's abuse alongside Claudia. I did wonder about investing in some contacts that make the eyes look clouded and like he has gone blind, however I need to talk to my model about whether he can wear contacts and the logistics of using blood with them.
The middle chart again shows the idea of him being thrown into the thorns in the story, with his eyes being scratched and bruised as a result of it. I think that using a pin to drag some fake blood across the eye area would look really effective to create the scratches from the thorns, I think with bruised eyes it would look really good. Again I was thinking about using the clouded contact lenses to give the illusion of blindness.
The bottom chart takes out the element of the blindness and just focuses on the abuse of Mrs Laderman on Claudia. I thought that just having his face bruised would make him seem vulnerable and like he is the victim alongside Claudia. If I was to do both Claudia and Quentin then I would have them with identical bruising to show that he is being affected by what is happening to her.
