Part 1 (can only upload up to 180 seconds)

Part 2.

Real talk: I know a lot of you guys thought the girl in the maneskin video was me, but it is not, so I thought last year why not start making my own compilation video full of my own paints! Since then gosh, we have had imgur flip turned upside down. I've been working on this throughout because I thought the imgur community would love to see it and was desperately trying so hard to get back on the website (UK) because I knew I was nearly finished with it and I HAD to post it here.

Recently there has been an influx of kindness in my comments after I expressed how sad and tired I was from all the gross incels, so thank you for turning up for me and making me feel like I'm more than a piece of sexual meat. To the men who still comment that stuff, literally go fuck yourself you genetic embarrassment.

I'll put the FAQ here for old times sake.

.............................................................................

I AM IN THE UK AND HAVE BEEN BLOCKED FROM USING IMGUR!!!

I managed to get on here with a VPN but Imgur doesn't like Vpns so I might lose access again soon. Basically, every time I post is a day I can get on here. Thank you so much to those people who want to try and help me with private VPNs but I have really bad tech aura and I break a lot of things so this is truly the best way forward, also I'm scared of being told off for spamming on here haha. IF you still want to follow me and see what I am doing please PLEASE find me on https://linktr.ee/mcroft07?utm_source=linktree_profile_share

I HATE THE GOVERNMENTS TOO
Faq:
I use body paint and do these in a mirror
No, it is not AI
I just looked at an anatomical drawing of a skeleton and copied it
I use professional body paint covers (pasties) this means I am not wearing a top but I am also not naked.
I paint myself, I make the props myself, I film myself, and I also edit.
This is my full time thing now (yayy)
I paint these by looking in a mirror, with brushes, and paint
It takes between 6-12 hours each
Body painting myself is my hobby/passion
I do own clothes
It doesn’t tickle
“Why don’t you just wear clothes” once again, body painting myself is my hobby/passion.
I am painting my skin, I am not wearing a suit - but that does not mean I am naked.
I know, even I think this is a ridiculous set of questions I have to constantly answer
I did not go to art school, I am self taught. Talent gets you so far, but this is a learned skill.
The paint isn’t edible (gross)
I've been painting myself for 16 years.
The 07 does not mean I was born in 2007, UK 7 is my shoe size
No, I don't need help painting my back, I don't want to paint my back, I don't need to paint my back. (also gross)
No, I don't need help washing it off. (also you are gross)
If you want to see more I am MCroft07 on IG, twitter, Tiktok, YouTube
I paint them live on twitch
I like doing the lip syncs, they're fun for me while I paint them. I couldn’t care less if you think they’re cringe.
I am cringe but I am free
My tattoos on my ribs are from Tomb Raider - I am a big TR fan
I do not have an OF but if you want to send me money THAT badly you can just tip my twitch account. Haha.
The shower afterwards takes about 15 minutes, I use a regular sponge and shower gel.
The reason why it can look different at the end is because I am wearing a wig, I promise you it is not a different person because the hair changed. While on this topic, if my eyes change colour it’s because I am wearing contact lenses. (Those with an IQ above 10… I know. Even I’m shocked the wig thing is a frequent comment).
I use body paint.
It doesn’t tickle, I am very ticklish and this is fine.
I don’t have an allergic reaction to the paint, but if you do it, you should always do a patch test first
I do not know where you can buy body paint in every country. I know in the UK it is available at FacePaintingshop.com. I use a plethora of different brands, it’s best to search for them yourself online.
I don’t work in Hollywood, I don’t want to. I just want to improve my body painting for myself.
I am English, not American.
I do not go outside like this to scare people. 1, that would be very cold. 2, in this current age, everyone would take photos without me knowing and it would likely dox me :))))))
I’m not a sweaty person, but if I was this would be a lot more difficult.
Thank you to those of you who came from Imgur to my Twitch channel!
“What’s the point in painting yourself when you can wear clothes?” all my clothes are in the laundry, had to resort to this, tough life
It would not be quicker to jump into a pool of paint - think of the drying time?!
Really proud of myself because I just bought a cheap top from Vinted and it was too small so I changed the back from a zipper to a corset style top to make it bigger to fit me and it worked! My secondary school textiles teacher would be proud of me!
I don’t care that I wash it off at the end, I get to reuse this canvas, we love a reduce, reuse, recycle queen.
I am not the lady who did the Maneskin video, it’s a cool video and she slayed, but it isn’t me.
I can promise you there is not *a man* painting these and I am pretending to paint myself. I am genuinely painting myself.
I know a lot of you don’t like reading this faq because it is horrid to see that I have to answer all of these. Unfortunately I have noticed that when I don’t put in all the icky things then I get more gross comments and I just have to spend more time blocking people so it’s better to call it out. I just copy and paste it each time anyway.

Brilliantly talented!

Christ how much planning and choreography did it take to put this together? I assume you knew you were doing this montage well in advance and planned the parts of the song for each one or did you just sing "work bitch" every time?

It'd be cool as hell if you did a samantha carter paint (stargate SG1). Blonde short wig and blue US air-force military uniform paint.

My brain can’t process how on earth body paint artists can be this accurate while using a mirror. I can sorta draw and create art and I cannot imagine trying to translate what I intend to draw mirrored so it looks correct when looked at. Also they gatta be ambidextrous when drawing to do both sides. Such massive talent. Mega props

Absolutely amazing! I wanted to do a shout out of my favorites, but the list came out basically "every. single. one.", so nevermind that.

Happy to see you're getting a real boost of supportive comments. Really wish incels would just...go away. Really dig the iron spider, incredible stuff.

I love her videos, I can't fathom the amount of work (and creativity) that goes into her body paint (and costumes)!

Mad respect to the amount of work in making this video. You had to choreograph everything out first, then after every painting act out the scene, then splice it all together.... Just ... Wow. Do you do your own video editing or do you farm that out?

everything is me, my bf helps me with the videos in addition to me editing them simply so we can get more out to appease the dreaded algorithms

My favourites are the ones with the body paint

Wait, you must have been planning this vid for months? Years? Because you lip synched to this song in all of them. That's dedication. Also, is it funny that I occasionally forgot it was body paint? Also also skeleton is still my favorite - there's just something extra pleasing about the artistry on that one that I can't quite put my finger on but it just looks really cool.

People deserve the ability to upvote this more than once. Amazing work and amazing planning ahead.

wow 🙀
Lady you're an artist in every sense of the word. So you really don't need to give a damn about someone complaining about spamming, gatekeepers are boring.

And "made me feel like i'm more...", of course you are and sadly it was the other way around, they made you feel as if you aren't. Let's bring more awareness again how words affect us all.

Dude I'm glad the in els didn't chase you off. I downvote motherfuckers every time I see them. I appreciate your talent!

First of all, you are an INCREDIBLE artist. Second of all, boys are gross. I'm sorry the internet is full of douchecanoes. I highly recommend checking out refashionedhippie on youtube, etc. She has a great way of making fun of the incels. In the meantime, try your best to frame those messages in a way that allows you to feel complimented by a mentally ill person. This helps me frame their comments in a positive way for myself, and allows me to feel pity instead of anger. I hope this helps! Xoxo

Holy crap, the level of planning at the start of all of your body paints to plan this huge compilation video. Very well done!

All of your work is just impressive, but that My Hero Academia one was next level. I hope to see you on Imgur until the Great Server Hamster takes their last turn on the wheel powering this place.

How much preplanning goes into a new skin (for lack of a better term)? Do you do drafts, trial runs, or just set up a reference and dive in?

just start painting and wing it

I have a question I would like to add to your FAQs. Before asking, let me say that your video is impressive. I like your skills (painting and acting) and I can see your passion as well. You write in the FAQs that's it's your full time thing. Does it mean you manage to earn enough money from this to making a living? I don't care about your finances :-), I will just be happy to know you live of this :-)

yeah! I do them live on twitch and people are so kind and subscribe to me even though i express it's not necessary, then I also work with companies to do commissions for them. the paints in the reel above that have a (£) on the name along the bottom were ones I was hired to do :) example of an ad https://www.instagram.com/p/DPvt7rvDbUM/

Actually, at this point, I don't think I'd be surprised if it turned out that was her superpower. She's an amazing talent.

"genetic embarrassment." is a great insult. I'm stealing that one.

Considering your talent for changing your appearance, if you were so inclined, you could pretend to be different people at the same job and get several salaries or something. If you were allowed to work remotely at least.

Great job as always! Thank you for sharing your hard work and talent with us!
