I need resources for how to do b/w makeup.

Ms. nushustu and I are thinking about doing a Marx Bros. get-up for Halloween. We're considering trying to make it look like we're in black-and-white, including gray flesh tones. Does anyone know of resources that tell how to do that with makeup?

That sounds pretty interesting. You don't want what would have been the original make-up for filming in black and white as rather than being grey that had a color to best mate with the color sensitivity of the b&w film. Something grey that would be used for replicating zombies etc. would probably be best.
