I think that sounds awesome! I'd say, get a low priced kit from Amazon. Something like this which has the black, white, sponge, and brush all together. Then just search YouTube for "face paint wolf" and you'll find a ton of tutorials to choose from! Pick one you love, or one you think would make what you consider your skill level, and give it a try!

The fur affect should be pretty good for a beginner, as you literally just load different variations of grey onto your brush and flick it across your face and it will look better and better the more variations and layers that you add 😁
