Face Templates!

This face template is inspired by the Dulong Women where they tattoo these amazing designs onto their faces. The story behind these tattoos are very important to know about as these tattoos are not just put onto the face to make the women prettier but to make them less attractive to prevent the women from being captured and taken as slaves and from being harmed by men from neighboring groups. 

Instead of creating a design in the center if the face as shown in the photo below, i have taken the designs and interpreted them in my own way and drawn tattoo like designs on and around the eyes. I also thought it would be interesting to see what the tattoos would look like on the lips and so the design above is what i have come up with, however i do not know if the eyes and lips are too much together and should maybe be done as two separate looks.
