With the face charts for the character of Miss Havisham, I wanted to use the same idea I did with Estella and show a progression in character between the two images almost like a before and after. Miss Havisham's decline is a key subject in Dickens novel therefore I feel it would be appropriate for me to include this into my work. With the first image, it is sometime after Miss Havisham was jilted at the alter, therefore her hairstyle is still fresh and her make-up has only slightly aged due to her anguish. For the hair, two soft ringlets frame the face with the rest up in a typical Victorian wedding hairstyle. The hair will be decorated with pearls and wedding ornaments to suit the theme. The face is only softly started to decline, heavy bags and grey skin vaguely appear in Miss Havisham's face and her lips stained from the pink from the wedding. There is a visible progress between two images as the second one shows Miss Havisham with severely stressed skin and hair. The cheeks have been made to look hollow as if there has been a lack of food and care, there are purple bags under the eyes and cuts and grazes due to cracking of skin. The hair is the same hairstyle as the previous image just disheveled over time.
