Often pet owners will dress up their dogs or cats for Halloween usually using an outfit, but this creative sugar skull design by Bryn Anderson paints the costume directly onto the dog's fur. The end result is a beautifully colorful and spooky costume that your canine friend won't feel bothered wearing since it'll feel like they're wearing nothing at all.
Anderson uses non-toxic face paints to create this look on her German Shepard dog Nixie. The tutorial features a skeleton body design painted using pink hues coupled with white for shading. The face features an elegant sugar skull design with pink, blue, yellow and white details to make up the skeletal face. The design is detailed and elegant and will come off easily with a quick bath. All you have to do is ensure your dog stands still enough for you to paint them!
