This bat design is both for boys and girls. It is very quick and easy to do but still has a wow effect.
Step 1
We sponge a pearl blue base on forehead, eyelids and sides of the eyes
Step 2
With a chisel brush we paint a black round shape in the centre of the forehead and the two wings. With a round brush we paint the black “fingers” and fill in the triangle shapes in between with dark blue
Step 3
With a round brush and white we paint two different size circles on the bat’s head to suggest a “crazy” look and two tiny horns. Then, we outline with a number 1 brush the horns and paint black in the centre of the eyes.
Step 4
Now we paint two small white dots on each eye to make them more lively and two small fangs. With watery white and a round brush we highlight the top of head and wings.
As a final touch, if we have time, we paint some small dots and stars around to fill in the background and we can add some stars with a stencil too.
Painting lips with and adding glitter are always a plus!
