3-I play with STRENGHT and SIZE brush parame-ters to perform the paint of the mask of character.

I dont want a clean paint because the mask is dirt and paint on face as a make up.

Check the paint without cage mode.

5-Zoom on face to make a red eyes detail.I use the SMUDGE tool to do the make up too much uniform and like an artistic-natural paint.

Finally i have work on the bump map and in realtime, directly on the model i softness some areas.
