Evaluation

These two images show the gelatine piece applied and also after it had been took off. I am really disappointed with how this went because I believe it could have looked a lot better, I only managed to blend away one side as the others were too thick and I also think my colouring is poor, as when I was applying the colour it was sliding straight off the gelatine. To improve this in the future I think I would have tried melting down the edges of the gelatine to make it thinner before applying it to the model then blend it with witch hazel.
