Anyone here have a link or two to instructions for making simulated (you are all brutes!) bruises and similar with really simple means?

Get punched?

Kick will work too, but easier to do whilst the subject is lying down. Try asking a ninja for specifics.

Purple, green and brown eyeshadow is best.

they key thing with bruises is to apply a tiny bit of make up (I find powders best) at a time, and smudge it into the next colour. No idea for links, but I can do them

pity then... *grin* I hope you do find something, but remember

1. bruises don't come in regular shapes - they are smudged and uneven

2. bruises come in red, black, blue, yellow, green and purple - but not all at once unless it's massive!

3. Even where the skin isn't properly "bruised" there will be redness spreading out

Yeah, pity.
Many thanks for your tips, though.

Brown, Red, and Purple felt-tip pens. Make a big brown smudge, then a slightly smaller red smudge, then a smaller yet purple smudge within that and smudge it all together.

I find using a good old bunch of fives does the trick.

Go to a fancy dress shop and ask for a Grimmas Bruise Wheel. It's what KD use onstage to create our gorier effects.
