Here are a few pictures of a character I worked on for The Force Awakens, which celebrates its 10th anniversary this week. Originally referred to as The Hauler, he came to be called Crusher Roodown, one of the inhabitants of the Nima settlement on Jakku. I was given the big yellow arms to build, following a concept by @jakeluntdavies ,and they were built from Vacform shapes pulled off of carved foam forms & assembled on a wooden frame, to keep the weight down. After I painted & weathered them they were attached to the bodysuit built by @tahrazafarltd and the whole thing finished off with the head, sculpted by @martin_rezard and painted by @hensvensson . Final pic of Ian Whyte who was an absolute trooper and performed inside the suit in 50 degree heat at the location in Abu Dhabi, dragging a sled of droid parts! #theforceawakens #starwars #maytheforcebewithyou🌌⭐️ #jjabrams #daisyridley
Some of our work for “The Red Sowing”, from Season 2 of House Of The Dragon.
As well as the progressive healing of Aegon’s burns over the course of the season, this particular episode also called for lots of prospective dragon riders to be burned. This clip shows some of the protective silicone makeups we applied to the stunt team for partial & back burns in the episode.
This and our other work on this instalment has earned us a Creative Arts Emmy nomination in the Prosthetic Makeup category, so please consider us, along with @amandaknightmonger for Makeup and @rosalia_culora for hairstyling, if you’re voting!

More from Jason Statham’s #aworkingmanmovie, this is a makeup we created for David Harbour, who played Gunny, a blind veteran who helps Jason’s character, Levon, out.
Originally planned to be more extensive, this reduced version was also intended to work with a set of clouded contact lenses but the decision was made to go with VFX eye cataracts in the end, with David wearing dark glasses for the majority of his scenes. Scars sculpted by me, moulded by @jamieiovino , run by @mattfinchsfx and applied by @stuartjrichards01 and @veeveeveeeee . With thanks to makeup designer @catherine_heys for getting us involved and @fairyfancyfoot for coordinating the job. #sfxmakeup #prosthetics #platgel10 #skinillustratorofficial #scars #wounds #trauma #jasonstatham #davidharbour
Turkey season seems like an appropriate time to post this photo I found from the early 2000’s, a silicone plucked chicken (from a cast) I painted at @animatedextras for a Sarah Lucas installation. A fun job and nice challenge!

In 2022 we were asked to provide a few items for @alicelowespaceoddity ’s Timestalker, by it’s fantastic makeup designer @nikb . The film centres around Agnes, a woman pursuing an ill fated romance through many historical periods, often causing her to part company with her head…
We made a head lifecast of the lovely Alice, who plays Agnes, and produced a Monster Clay positive from it. Once it was tidied up & the eyes opened we moulded it again in fibreglass, from which we produced the silicone head. After the paint job was finished it was fitted with resin eyes and finished off with eyebrows, eyelashes and a partial hairpiece, with hand punched hair around the sides & front hairline.
This was a really fun project to be involved in with some great things to make. Many thanks to Nik and Alice for having us along for the ride and check out this brilliant independent film while it’s in theatres!

House Of The Dragon
Season 2 Ep8: The Queen That Ever Was
*SPOILERS AHEAD*
During Daemon’s stay at Harrenhal he has been plagued by visions from his past, but in this episode he has a vision of things to come, involving some key events that took place in A Game Of Thrones. Included in these is a glimpse of a White Walker leading an army of the dead.
As well as several undead makeups, we were given the task of creating a prosthetic makeup of a White Walker (NOT the Night King) that would fit within the visual aesthetic of the later series’ of GOT, as established by the talented folks over at BGFX. Working over a lifecast of movement performer Paul Kasey, a plastiline sculpt was produced and after being approved was split up and moulded in sections. We only dealt with the face as the high collar of the costume made a neck piece unnecessary. Once the silicone pieces were run from the moulds they were prepainted before being applied and the makeup was finished off with a wig and costume from GOT assets and VFX reference contact lenses. These photos are from our initial test with eye enhancement & colour grade added in photoshop to illustrate the intended final look.
Thanks to Paul Kasey for his patience, @sarakramer_makeup for her hair help and our talented team :
