Trying to make fake wounds

We tried to make realistic looking wounds for something to do in our short films.

He is first really anxious to leave the bridge but when he agrees to leave he has a great time with his newly made friend. he is looked at with disgust and people are pointing and laughing at him which is a shot that I could do from the trolls perspective to add to the mise en scene.
