Along with its gamer modeling services for events, motion capturing, voice acting, and more, Charisma+2 produces a magazine targeting female gamers. The online publication, which has already published a dozen issues, offers reviews, profiles on women working in the game industry (e.g. Brenda Brathwaite), and articles helping girls break into the business.

The latest issue of C+2 magazine includes a piece you won't see in traditional gaming magazines like Edge or Gamepro: a step-by-step guide for a make-up look inspired by Mass Effect 2's Miranda Lawson (pictured). The tutorial suggests products you can use and presents this "gamette make-up" as an
everyday look for girls wanting a "simple and sexy go-between".

I've included the video guide recorded by C+2 model Leigh Ann, an aspiring 3D game artist, after the break. She's also contributed an article in this month's issue discussing her first steps toward developing skills she'll need for that career. I've no idea where she finds time for these articles in between raising and maintaining seven World of Warcraft characters (leveled around 60-80).
