This was an unplanned look, but I hope you guys still enjoy! Be sure to check out my youtube page! I will be entering the NYX Face Awards and I could use your help! Thanks! <3
Sketch It Out

I, as always, used a white eyeliner to sketch out my look. This is REALLY important if your look is not planned such as mine was in this moment.
Black

Using black from Mehron I filled in that first section.
Gray

Using Gray from Mehron I filled in that bottom section.

I used silver from Mehron to outline the black. Then I grabbed some matte black eye shadow to shadow under the silver. After that I grabbed black from Mehron again and added lines into the gray, curving them around the jawline. After that I went on one side of all the black lines with white from Mehron and then re-added shadows I may have lost with that same eye shadow.
Green

I filled in the eye section with green from Mehron.

Using white I highlighted inside the black, this will help it have a leatherish look. I used my fingers to smear it out.

Using matte black and green eye shadow from ULTA I added wrinkles and texture to his eyes, and I also used white body paint to highlight.

Using green and black I filled in the chest plate, then I used a gold eye shadow from NYX over the green to make it stand out from the green body.

Using green from Mehron I filled in the rest of the body and used black matte eye shadow from ULTA to shadow around the straps and chest plate.
