How to paint the jaws that bite, the claws that catch and maybe a mimsy Bandersnatch?

I stood awhile in thought,

Resting by my Tumtum tree so-

Sought I a way to lessen,

The longsome manxome for our un-foe,

Some sort of facepainting Halloween lesson?

Well, Grimas already has simple guides that will help lessen the great fear for our friends when painting basic Halloween designs!

Below are links to a wide range of step by steps for Halloween monstrous things like Zombies, Sculls, Witches, Werewolves and Devils, some go into a lot of details, others are just the step by step pictures. These are good guides to follow, while adding your own personal flair as you build up your confidence.

And of course, you don’t need to use Grimas, they are transferable to any good brand of face paint, it's mostly just Black and White paint ya'll need...

They even have a load of videos with even more elaborate facepainting ideas for Halloween here: https://www.grimas.nl/website/web2/index.php?onderwerp=002035aa
