A captivating story coupled with amazing visuals. I highly suggest checking it out 
The tale begins here: [link]
But yes, my first red/yellow/orange facepainting ordeal! 
D'acryl acrylics, blue no-name glitter, leftover facepaints from halloween, and lots of free time/photofiltre. 
The result was a Marvelesque-bodyart-photo(manipulation). 
This was super hard to put into a category. It wasn't all digital, it wasn't all traditional. 
So I opted out of the cheese-fest and instead went for a sense of realism. After all, Hikastia has dark hair in human form
Is the contrast/intensity of the colours overkill, or a good stylized approach?Keeping in mind the inspiration behind this: [link] is there anything that could have been done to make the image more effective? i.e. a background, more of the shoulders/ body showing, less negative space, etc.
This is a photomanipulation?! Just... wow! I would never have thought! 
I've gotten lots of handy feedback, so I'm sure it would come out loads better

I hate how there isn't a mixed media category for a mix of traditional and digital art ;( It's really annoying. Nevertheless, this is amazing body art, I really like it. I think the colours and the intensity of the worked out fine, especially considering the inspiration.
However, I do think more could have been done to make the image a bit more interesting, and a bit more of your own depiction of the character. I quite like the hair the way it is, but I think you should have done something with the background - I'd suggest a flame but that might be a bit generic. I think the amount of body you've shown is fine although maybe you could add into the picture whatever the character is looking up at - that might make it a bit more interesting.
The only thing i dislike is the fact you gutted the eye out or didn't draw the eye. I think you should of because i see that as a major distraction.
All in all, good work.
