Or how a werewolf bite is created? In this FX makeup class, we will explore all of the tricks of movie magic. Each class will be tailored specifically for a Vampire Diaries\/Originals\/Legacies effect from your favorite show. No supplies or experience needed. A volunteer will be selected each class to be our model (please note all allergies must be discussed before you may be selected). For one hour, you will learn a whole new skill for any cosplay or Halloween look. Come join us on SUNDAY! Meet your makeup artist:\u00a0My name is Victoria\u00a0Righthand! I am a licensed esthetician who has been working in beauty and special effects makeup for 10 years. From fun photoshoots to short films, and Halloween events, I have worked with a variety of mediums and people to give you all a well-rounded insight into the world of special effects. Some of my work with the Supernatural cast is photographed above. Hope to see you at a class!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>$50<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class='mb-center maxbutton-1-center'><span class='maxbutton-1-container mb-container'><a class=\"maxbutton-1 maxbutton maxbutton-checkavails\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/creationent.ticketspice.com\/vampire-fan-weekend-nashville-may-2-3-2026-autograph-photo-ops-misc\"><span class='mb-text'>CHECK AVAILABILITY<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1773258842403{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-right: 40px !important;margin-bottom: 50px !important;margin-left: 40px !important;padding-top: 27px !important;padding-right: 27px !important;padding-bottom: 27px !important;padding-left: 27px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;border-radius: 25px !important;}&#8221; el_id=&#8221;cosplay&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"cosplay\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong><span class=\"reallyred\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1611 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/creationent.com\/events\/vfw-nashville26\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/10\/VFW26_976x195-Cosplay-Contest.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"976\" height=\"195\" srcset=\"https:\/\/creationent.com\/events\/vfw-nashville26\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/10\/VFW26_976x195-Cosplay-Contest.jpg 976w, https:\/\/creationent.com\/events\/vfw-nashville26\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/10\/VFW26_976x195-Cosplay-Contest-300x60.jpg 300w, https:\/\/creationent.com\/events\/vfw-nashville26\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/10\/VFW26_976x195-Cosplay-Contest-768x153.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 976px) 100vw, 976px\" \/><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong><span class=\"reallyred\">COSPLAY CONTEST<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Show off those cosplay skills!
