Video Transcript

"Alright, the next obvious step in crafting the eyes of our villain characters are the eyebrows which are equally important as crafting the eyes themselves, because they will basically build on to the look we've already started on. And if anything, they will accentuate it and add extra levels of intensity or fright or harmlessness, depending on what we want to do, to the character themselves. So it's very careful to choose the right eyebrows for these characters, because you could potentially ruin what you've already started if you choose the wrong looks. So, starting with our man-villain, we're going to make his eyebrows kind of neat, a little bushy, but they're not going to be completely out of control. They're just going to be little white tufts. They're kind of big eyebrows too. But you'll see as we build off of this, it's not going to make him look quite as wild and unhinged as some of our other guys. For example beast-man. We are going to do the opposite for him. We're going to do quick little brush strokes and make his eyebrows thin and wild. By drawing them thin like that, we're giving them a lot of...we're making them basically not as prominent as our other guy's. They're a little more wild-looking, hairy-looking, unkept. And that's the character we're trying to portray, a little more of a wild, untamed monster character as opposed to our relatively harmless man-villain. Moving on over now to our scary-as-hell villain. We are going to give this guy an evil, yet serene look. So we're not going to make his eyebrows crazy at all. In fact, we're going to make them very neat and narrow. I know it doesn't really look like much now, but trust me, as we continue to build on this, it will just make this guy look all that much more sinister and threatening. You do not want to mess with this guy. So, we've got our three little eyes, complete with eyebrows now, so next we'll move on to the nose."
