The bodypaint worldchampionship is more then just bodypaint, its a show.
The theme for ady 1 was year 2250. My idear was this: We carryed the Scanner in to the judges. The painted model was behind the screen, and I had another, fully dressed model along with me. I explaned, that in the old days (like 2007) I would have to paint the mode, not now (in 2250) its was more easy.
So The model went behind the screen, we had placed a copy og her dress inside, as she trowed out, pertending to undres.
Then I showed the judges a bad little layout as how i would make my scanner paint the model, put a few drops of paint into a tube conected to the scanner and hit a switch.
And BAMM, a little lightshow goes off, and the fully painted model steps out.
Super fun to do and I got 1. place at day 1.

The Scanner was made og wood. Heavy as hell, and it had to be [...]transported in pices all the way to Austria and put together again. Here is before n after paint. 2m high. Læs mere...↑
For the headpice I used an old calender and a lot of latex. Molded [...]it around (Siri) my models head, and pre-painted it. At the festival I clued it tight to her forhead and neck. Læs mere...↑
So, 3 steps of the headpice and how it looked before attached to the model.
Then I started to paint. I made extra eyer on the eyelid, looked quite [...]cool when she was closing her eyes... You couldnt tell if she was asleep. Læs mere...↑
On her hands I had made some gloves out of latex and fanes. The [...]ware painted to fit her eyes on the front and matched also her headpice on the back. Quite a puzzle to work out! Læs mere...↑
The finish headpice.
This is the back of the headpice, all the parts and paints actually fits.
So, starting to paint the basis of the body.
More paint on... I had in total 7 hours.
Basic done, time for details.
And done!. 7 hours og hard work, both for me and the model.
