Dan made a pretty convincing leg-wound on himself, but doing your own leg is easier than doing your own nipple. I'd suggest wearing a dust mask if your nipple is being painted, whether you do it or someone else does it, unless you're outside in a well-ventilated area. (Doing it under an easy-up, I'd still want the mask, but more ventilation/room above than that, you're probably OK, unless you're surrounded on too many sides by tarp walls.)
