"Previously on Face Off... 14 talented special-effects make up artists came to Los Angeles to compete to join the world's elite." "You're going to have to re-imagine and modernize four of the iconic main characters from the wonderful Wizard Of Oz." "Jerry has immunity, but I'm not gonna let him push me around." "The strongest makeup was Brea." "Who's going home tonight?" "Greg." "Now 13 artists remain." "And tonight..." "Your models will be completely submerged in a water tank." "Something's wrong." "He can't breathe." "But to make it to the top, they'll have to impress our award-winning panel of judges" "Ve Neill, three time Oscar-winning makeup artist whose work includes Beetlejuice and The Amazing Spiderman." "Patrick Tatopoulos, production designer on this summer's total recall, and director of Underworld:" "Rise Of The Lycans." "And Glenn Hetrick, cutting-edge makeup artist on The Hunger Games and custom designer for Lady Gaga." "Who will be the next great name in movie gic and earn $25,000 worth of makeup from Alcone, the reinvented 2012 Toyota camry hybrid, and $100,000?" "Get ready for Face Off." "I still feel down about everything." "Yeah." "I feel like I've let my team down..." "And I've helped send home a friend." "Since I'm still here, I feel like" "I definitely have to redeem myself." "I was pissed because at one point," "Jerry was sitting in the chair." "Hell, no." "Because if you and I were teamed up together, that'd be it." "What if I keep on getting second place because I'm helping other people look good?" "When I lost to Brea, I realized I allowed someone else to get that win by riding on my coattails." "And damn if that's gonna happen again." "Let's do this day, man." " We got this." " Yeah, we got it, man." "Good morning, everybody." "Good morning." "Welcome to the Aquarium of the Pacific." "This place features over 11,000 animals, including sharks, jellyfish, sea dragons, even giant crabs." "This truly is a world-class experience." "This spotlight challenge, you're gonna be working in teams of two." "You are going to search the aquarium to find fish or other creatures to inspire your very own sea creature makeup." "I actually went to college for marine biology." "So this is right up my alley." "I know my fish." "Your teams have been randomly selected and they are..." "Team one" " Sue and Rayce." "Yeah." "Dang." "Team two..." "Jerry and Nix." "Jerry is the last person I wanna be teamed up with, because him and I are gonna be bumping heads." "Team three is Miranda and Beki." "I'm paired up with the greenest person on the block." "This is gonna be interesting." "Team four..." "Ian and RJ." "Yes!" "Team five..." "Matt and Tara." "Team six..." "Heather and Athena." "All the teams are picked and I'm thinking, why is my name not getting called?" "Brea?" "Why don't you come and stand next to me for a minute?" "All right." "The rest of you can now go stand with your teammates." "Well, as the winner of last week's spotlight challenge, you get to choose which team you'd like to join." "Yes." "So your team will have three people." "Go ahead and make your choice." "Well, I feel pretty strong as a sculptor, and I was really impressed with Rayce's painting skills so I'm gonna have to choose Rayce and Sue." "Fantastic, go and join your teammates." "Well, I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with." "But there is one more thing you should know." " Yeah, yeah, yeah." " Of course." "On reveal day, your models will be completely submerged in a water tank." "So your makeups are now going to have to be waterproof." "Oh!" " That's hard-core." "I've done a body paint once, submerged in water for a few hours, and that was a big challenge." "But to do something with prosthetics?" "That's a whole nother ball game." "You all have 30 minutes to go find something that inspires you." "So, grab your cameras, your sketchpads, because your time starts now." "Oh, that's nice, that's nice." "Wow." "Looks like he's frontin'," " he's like..." " Yeah." "I really like the frog idea and I think it lets you paint like crazy" " I just don't think the frog is exactly the way to go, though." "Out of everyone in the group," "Nix and I are really the only two that don't really get along." "Texture is what we need." "At the same time, Nix knows I'm a great sculptor and I've heard Nix is a fantastic painter." "Because we're gonna butt heads on this," "I think the easiest way to do it is ultimately you'll be in charge of paint and I'll be in charge of sculpture." "If we don't do it that way," "I guarantee we don't win, I guarantee it." "Wait, look at the stingray." "Mm-hmm." "I'm pretty much immediately thinking a lionfish because they're one of my favorite fish." "There's lots of appendages." "Oh, that's what-- That's what we want." "Yes, this is the one I was talking about." "I love it, I love the sculpture of it." "I'm so glad that you're a pro at fishes." "Awesome." "Looks like plants." " I like this one, you know why?" " You do?" "'Cause they look like a dragon." "Leafy sea dragon." "I like the colors of this but I also like this fin." "It looks like an antenna or something on top." " Yeah." " Lyretail fairy basslet." "It changes color, behavior and sex." "Oh, yeah, it's androgynous." "It starts out as a female and then morphs into a male." "I think he or she will be fierce." "No doubt." "Yeah." "Fierce." "Beki, look how cool they are." "Yeah, those two look beautiful." "This thing would all flow in the water in a really interesting way." "Yeah." "Do you think this might be the one?" "Yeah." "Are you guys picking this thing?" "Yeah." "Don't pick what we're picking 'cause you don't wanna be next to us." "Well, all right." "Beki and Miranda are doing the same fish as us." "But I don't want our fish coming out looking the same." "So I'm ready to bring it on, man." "Wow, that's cool, look at that shark." "I like the ridges down the back." "And then they have an easy texture to sculpt." "I" " I think the zebra shark is a good choice for us." "Turtle." "We see this turtle and he's floating past us, and at that point, we looked at each other, and we knew that that was gonna be our animal." "I mean, it's got great texture, it's got great color." " I think it'll be good." " I think it'll be awesome." "We get back to the lab." "We get to choose our model for the makeup." "On each of our stations, there's an aquarium so that we can test different materials, see how things move in the water, see if they float or if they sink." "We can't build a really big head piece, unfortunately, but we're just gonna keep that mohawk going on." "We have three and a half hours in the lab to figure out the design that we're going to do." "What do you wanna do?" "I'm really nervous about it, actually." "Well, let's talk about it, what are you worried" "I mean, we gotta get started." "Having it hold up underwater is a huge twist." "We don't even know where to begin." "I think we should have, like..." "Something okay, well lawyers are known as sharks, right?" "Well what if he's a lawyer?" "We'll take a risk and we'll say, if this works, awesome, and if it doesn't send me home." " Cowl first?" " Cowl first." "We'll work on the face tomorrow." "All right." "Do we wanna cover her eyes or do we wanna keep her real eyes?" "We should keep her real eyes." "I've never done something under the water before." "To me, the challenge then became it has to be a beautiful creature in the water, you know?" "We have to use fabrics and things that are going to float and be beautiful in the water." "So, we've got a head." "One arm, one sheet with texture." "These are the things for sure we're sculpting." "I'm feeling really great about today." "We both agree foam latex is the best for this." "Silicone doesn't breathe underwater." "We know that if we glue it on well, it's not gonna come off." "My greatest strengths lie in conceptualizing and sculpting." "I believe that you need that base sculpt to really wow those judges." "Apparently, Matt likes to slip these sex symbolism things into all of his makeup, which is fine by me." "For this character, I'll be working primarily on the face sculpture." "Sue is working on the chest piece and the back piece." "And Brea is working on the arm pieces as well as the appendages that come off of the character." "Mine looks a little more delicate." " Yeah." " And this just looks like" ""I'm gonna kick your ass right now."" "Totally." "The concept is going to be about this sea goddess has come out, and instead of camouflaging with the water, she's going to be just embodied with anger and fire and passion." "Should I make him a little more meaner or something, or..." "I think stay away from the mean because I think a lot of people tend to go that way." " So just kinda leave him?" " Yeah." "We're working surprisingly well together." "We have some molds to make and some latex arms to pull." "I mean, it's, you know, it's high school stuff." "The lionfish that we chose has a very, very, very broad mouth." "So we tried to capture that." "While I'm sculpting, Athena is making long spines that are going to work almost like a glove." "Gonna make a really big impact in the display tank." "I'm worried if we have too much of, like, the lip thing going on, it's bent out like that." "The sea dragon has a really long snout, or nose, or whatever, and she starts putting on this really short little stubby thing that looks like a duck and it's just a big sloppy mess." "Can I" " Can I just do one thing?" " Go ahead." " I just think maybe" " Go ahead." " Like, if we just..." "So she wants to come over and sculpt on it." "Instantly, she wipes the face off and starts doing this little tiny chicken nose on it." "You don't think it looked like a duck before?" "Nope." "I think it looks like a chicken now." "Becky and Miranda are having some intense..." "Dialogue." "Okay, then I'm gonna leave the snout up to you." "'Cause the way that you're responding to me is stressing me out a little bit, like, so I just" "I'd rather just leave it to you." "I'm over here sculpting, waiting for you to show me something that doesn't look like a chicken or a duck." "Maybe you could help me out rather than just yelling at me that you don't like it." "She definitely underestimating me, so it's kind of gonna bite her in the ass if we can't get something out that works." "You gotta show me what's going on in your brain." "Oh, my God, this is gonna be a disaster." "You just have bad things to say, but you don't wanna help me out." "Well, maybe you could help me out rather than just yelling at me that you don't like it." "The end of day one, Miranda starts basically shutting down." "So, I had a front and a back piece, a chicken staring at us." "I guess I'm 20% of the way where I wanna be." "The start of the day is very nerve-wracking." "We'd have to take into consideration, is this gonna float?" "Is the paint gonna bleed into the water?" "Really makes me nervous." "I like the white one to be honest." "I haven't done a latex skin like this before." "What jobs have you worked on?" "I sculpted for this guy's film." " What was the name of the film?" " And I helped around" "I don't remember." "Did you go on set for that at all?" "No." "And how long did it take you to do" "Why are you, like, drilling me right now?" "I'm trying to figure out what you've done." "I don't know you." "She obviously doesn't respect me, and she doesn't really give me a chance." "I don't understand why it was such a big deal in what I was doing." "You-- you became defensive when" "I started asking you what your credentials were, okay?" "Because it seemed like you were asking me in a way that was indicating, "oh, you haven't done anything."" " Hey, guys." " Hello." "Patrick and I are here to check out your work." "So here comes McKenzie and Patrick." "I'm a little nervous because he's a great artist, and anything he says, you've gotta listen to it." "Hey!" "So our team of three." "I am so excited to see Patrick in the lab." "I love his work, I love underworld." "We wanted this dragon to be a representative of the sea and a guardian of the sea." "You guys have a plan for the legs?" "We have" " Already have molding the arms," " the whole texture on the arms." " Uh-huh." "What we're gonna do is maybe just do a brush-up with the latex" " and..." " And use some of those pieces?" "Yes, and use some of the pieces on the legs." " Hey, Matt and Tara." " Hey." " Hi, guys." " How you doing?" "Great." "Something about the water that makes things move, are you planning that as well?" "We're running around those ideas, but we're, uh, we're kinda iffy on the material to use right now." " Right, right." " And we just need to hammer down on the-- the exact concept of the certain fins and the shape." "So you're basically conceptualizing as you're moving forward." "Yeah." " All right." " Thank you very much." "Thank you." " How are you doing?" " Hi." "It's coming along." "He's gonna be wearing a three-piece suit, actually." " Yeah." " Really?" "He's a lawyer." "Looking good." "Good luck, guys." " Good luck." " Awesome." " Hey, Nix, hey, Jerry." " How's it going?" "We're doing a Ridley's sea turtle." "It's an interesting choice." "The turtle is a pretty streamlined shape." "It's underwater." "The same sort of the appeal of all the things that are flowing just sell the water better." "We did talk about that." "One of the benefits of water is undulating, trailing" " Mm-hmm, right, right." " Materials." "But then we thought, everyone's gonna do that." "We're not putting too many twists and turns into our pieces." "There's just gonna be cool textures and paint job." "It looks to me like you paid attention to the fish quite, and I think it's important that there definitely is a fish face." "I know some people were going kinda more of a character, but we-we've decided to take a more literal approach." "Those pieces are what?" "They're gonna be those little, uh" "This is where we're gonna anchor the big fin." "That's it, got you." "So you guys are working well together?" "Feel it's all happening?" "I think we sat down, kind of talked about exactly what we wanted to get done, so we're on the same page." "You feel you're on the same page." " Very good." " Well, good." "It's funny because Miranda just instantly lies." "She's like, "oh, everything's great."" "You can't just say something that's not true." " All right, good luck." " Thank you." "So, let's start with Sue, Brea and Rayce, who are doing the leafy sea dragon." "Um, what are your thoughts?" "Those are guys are creating something that to me looks absolutely great." "Who are you most concerned about?" "Matt and Tara," "I think are the one that would concern me." " Why?" " Because they don't have a full-blown plan." "They have a lot of things that they haven't resolved yet." "Okay, so Nix and Jerry's sea turtle?" "I'm not crazy about the sculpt on the face of the turtle." "It's a little cartoony." "What are your thoughts on Athena and Heather's lion fish?" "I'm a little bit concerned about how much we're gonna see that mouth opening." "You don't want this thing to look like a big pull-on mask for Halloween." "Right." "All right, guys." "Can't wait to see what you come up with." " Thank you, guys." " Thank you." "Take care, bye." "I think the only way this isn't gonna work is if we don't get finished." "Yeah." "Um..." "Yeah." "I don't wanna have them say it looks like three people doing it." "To make this a cohesive character, all of our sculptures have to have some kind of element that's relatable." "As long as there's none that bend back in, so that if they're underwater, they can have like, a flow off of them, kinda that aerodynamic..." "Okay." "After I finish the sculpture," "I make a mold of it." "So that you're left with a negative impression of your original sculpture." "Once you pour foam latex in, it has to bake for quite a few hours." "We wanna have that baking by the time we leave tonight." "All right, what do you want me to do now?" "Uh, mold that arm." "I can sculpt." "Plan was to have the head totally finished and I'm willing to let him run the paint job." "I've heard how good he is, but I haven't seen it." " Hey, Beki?" " Yeah?" "I have a question." "Should I, like, build a wall?" "I'm just worried it'll-- It won't be able to stay." "I start getting very concerned." "I'm realizing how very little experience she really has." "You think you could help me open this?" "I can't figure out how to open it." "She's just killing me." "Are you guys feeling confident?" "No, because time is the only thing that will make her" " Me feel comfortable with her." "I'm frustrated." "I feel like I've been working as fast as I possibly can." "Also, coaching Miranda is making me a little bit anxiety-ridden simply because I can't hold the whole boat on my own." "The way Beki is saying everything to me is just rude and mean, and it's kind of a nightmare." "This is not finished yet here." "I put that in and you called me over to help you with that, so I did." "Then I'll blow dry them and they'll be ready to pop out." "You're sure there's nothing else you'd rather me be doing that this?" "Because if so, speak now." "Miranda is getting really aggressive with me." "And honestly, I don't feel like" "I need to prove myself to you, like..." "You don't need to prove yourself to me." "You need to prove yourself to the nation because you're on Face Off." "Beki and Miranda aren't gelling together very well at this point." "Communication isn't quite there." "Just, ugh!" "If you feel I'm being so inadequate with my time, then I'll do something else." " I think you should pre-paint because it might take you a little while to get what you want." "Miranda's pretty adamant about doing the painting, and if she paints as fast as she sculpts, that thing's never gonna get painted." "Day two's almost done." "Got the face molded, ready for foam." "Got a lot of our fins cast up." "Should be doing pretty good for tomorrow." "All right, guys, time's up." "Come on, peeps, let's go!" "Look at Athena, skipping in like she doesn't even have a ten-hour day." "That's cute." "So it looked like you were stressing a little." "Uh, just a little." "Miranda and I had a fight, and I feel like that showed some of the worst parts of both of us." "She's still new, though, isn't she?" "Today I'm asking her what her credentials are, and she started just, immediately getting defensive." "It's just like, she's so threatened by me." "Beki told Miranda to her face that she was incompetent and that she should not be here." "I caught Beki scolding Miranda like a child, and..." "You just" " You should never do that to someone." "And if something takes you longer than so and so hours," " you shouldn't be here." " Look at you." "If you didn't have me on your team doing the work, you would have nothing done, homegirl." "Hoo!" "She's jealous 'cause she didn't win." "She's walking around saying, "I let you win because I wanted you to redeem yourself."" "You're not letting me win anything." "I'm dope." "That's why I'm here." "For your information, that's why I have my own company." "Because I'm dope." "So application day-- We have four hours to apply our prosthetics, get it painted, have everything finished, with an hour to do final touch-ups." "I'll tell you what, dude," "I cannot wait to paint this turtle." "Beautiful." "Beautiful, beautiful." "Hi, how are you doing?" " Good, I'm Sara." " I'm Beki." "It's so nice to meet you." "Are you our model?" " I think so." " Perfect." "Four hours seems like a long time to do a makeup application, but when you're doing a full body with multiple pieces it-- it goes by in a flash." "There'll be a-- One prosthetic piece, and this will go all the way down to your..." "Crotch area." "This part goes here, okay." " My hoo-hah." " Yes, and then..." "If it's cool with you, it'd be awesome" " if you could shave your legs." " Yeah, yeah." "So you're-- you're a lawyer." " Shark lawyer." " That's clever, dude." "We really have to bring something extra with this leafy sea dragon." "Being that a team of two picked it as well." "Now it's a duel of whose leafy sea dragon's gonna be better?" "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6." "We have over 15 appliances, plus the paint job." "Holy crap, half of that would have sufficed for a team of three." "I'm getting a little worried now." "I'm gonna glue it in the side of the foam." "Gonna have you grab and hold onto this kind of a little bit." "We have to apply bald cap." "We have to apply facial prosthetic, two arm pieces, and two leg pieces." "It's a lot of stuff to apply, and I hope that I'll be able to get the paint job done on time." "So our model, Ethan, he keeps kind of nodding off." "Wake up." ""Huh?"" "I can't believe he, like, passes out in, like, three seconds." "We have a narcoleptic lionfish man today." "I'm gonna kill you right now." "I don't know what happened." "There's so many chunks missing from the edges." "First thing the judges are gonna look at is the edges." "When you have a nice blended edge, you shouldn't see it at all." "And it just makes the character more real." "I'm really stressing that we're not gonna be able to get these edges down." "How are we gonna hide these?" "So we're feeling a little nervous that we're not gonna be able to pull off this makeup." "Look at that, dude, custom color, bro." "What do you think, dude?" "It's a little cartoony." "So you don't like the paint job, or you just think it needs to be tweaked?" "I don't actually like it, but, you know..." "I'm starting to get that queasy feeling in my stomach, thinking that I just knocked out some really cool sculpts in a short amount of time, and now, they're going to get saddled with an awful paint job." "I mean, because of time, would you mind if I just kinda wrapped up the back?" "Yeah, that's fine." "One hour left." "So we're just doing a..." "I don't know yet." "My whole mantra with makeup is if you can't hide it, flaunt it." "So, my brilliant plan is to cover these massive edges with fabric." "I don't wanna cover up your sculpt too much, 'cause it's pretty, but I" "We just have to do the edge that way." "Since we don't have much time, the fabric has to be applied at the last looks." "It'll be okay, Matt, it'll be okay." "All right, all right." "I'm really thinking she's out of her mind." "Coming up..." "Let's put your makeups to the test in our water tank." "We're in big trouble." "This is an incredible look." "The paintjob was amazing." "I did not like this makeup." "It's last looks." "Whoo, the last hour." "We got a lot of detailing to do and finishing stuff." "Shell is on, baby." "That ain't going anywhere." "We should start fabric-ing I guess." "We're scrapping blending the seams, which is a big no-no in my book." "And Tara's trying to reassure me that we can hide those with the fabric." "How lo2 would you say till you're ready to help me with the paint?" "'Cause I can't paint the whole thing alone." "I will help you paint as soon as I get these fins on." "Just like I said I would." "You think we should lose the fins?" "Yeah." "They just turned out to look like." "We have no choice, we have to do it." "And pose with your fists." "Hey, guys, time's up." "I was really disappointed." "It was definitely one of the key parts of our makeup, and we had to take it off." "It's not a finished work." "Welcome to the Face Off reveal stage." "Now, tonight, one of you will be eliminated." "But let's say hello to your judges." "Owner of optic nerve makeup effects studio," " Glenn Hetrick." " Hello." "Three-time Oscar-winning makeup artist," " Ve Neill." " Welcome back." "And creature designer and director," "Patrick Tatopoulos." "Hi, guys." "So, guys, this week, your spotlight challenge was to work in teams." "And to find a sea creature from the aquarium of the pacific to use as inspiration for your unique makeups." "You were also asked to make them waterproof." "I'm standing there, and I'm looking over at this huge tank, and I'm getting a little nervous." "Let's take a look at your makeups before they go in our water tank." "I'm glad we decided to go with the fabric and hide the edges, because it looks like colorful scales." "It doesn't look good." "As soon as his back faces us," "I notice that there's skin showing." "We feel like our character's execution is a little lacking right now." "But she's gonna be going out in the water in a few minutes, and we're really gonna see that ethereal look." "I know he's still really visually striking, but I'm a little nervous that maybe now we don't have enough pieces." "Despite all of the shenanigans between Miranda and I, we actually created an amazing creature." "And I can visualize what it's gonna look like in the water." "It will be beautiful." "I see big grins on people's faces when they see our shark dude." "I think we might have this." "So let's put your makeups to the test by submerging your models in our water tank." "First up is Tara and Matt's creation." "Judges, why don't you take a closer look?" "We're a little worried, because..." "We never even tested the makeup that we used." "It may crack." "I'm also a little worried how well the model will do in the water." "She may freak out and rip off the prosthetic." "This is it, guys, sink or swim." "Wow." "Everybody gasped when she got in the water." "That looks really cool in the water." "Everything's staying on, she's sparkling, you can't see the edges--they're all disguised by the fabric." "Yeah, it looks terrific." "Well, this was a really clever way to hide all their edges." "Next up is Nix and Jerry's creation." "When our turtle gets into the water, it's already kind of awkward." "You can see the back part of the shell starting to lift up." "He goes underwater for a moment and comes right back up." "The water is just caving in on him." "He can't breathe." "We're in big trouble." "Next up is Nix and Jerry's creation." "Something's wrong." "He goes underwater for a moment, and he comes right back up." "Gee, he's having some major blowouts." "A cloud starts forming around him of paint." "Everything but the shoulders is up." "We're in big trouble." "The shell is completely floating off." "I don't enjoy doing mediocre work." "Hey!" "I'm pretty good." "But you're as strong as your weakest link." "Next, we have Sue, Rayce, and Brea's creation." "I think that if those weren't made with such thick, stiff wire, they'd be lighter and they'd be moving a lot." "Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah." "The model is selling the makeup." "It's beautiful." "All right, let's look at Heather and Athena's creation." "Okay." " Nice." " Whoo hoo, yes." "As soon as he jumps into that water tank, he, like, becomes like a fish in the water." "The mouth is actually really fantastic." "Oh, look at the little things around him, all moving." " Right." " Good." "Oh, yes." "Now we need to applaud." "Yeah, this is good." "Now, let's see Ian and RJ's." "He gets into the water, and immediately his clothes pop up." "All right, let's see Beki and Miranda's." "This looks way better underwater than it did out." "Totally, totally." "Well, the judges have scored your creations, so..." "Let's see what they thought." "Beki and Miranda..." "Brea, Rayce, and Sue..." "Your teams are safe." "You can head back to the makeup room." " Thank you." " Thank you." "Thank you." "Me and Beki worked horribly as a team, so I'm excited that we were called safe." "All right, the rest of you were the best and the worst of this week." "So the judges would like to speak with each of you to learn more about your work." "Heather and Athena, would you please step forward?" "I did not like this makeup." "I actually loved it." "I thought it was really cool." "Oh, my God, thank you." "You made some really, really brave decisions." "Could you tell us a little bit about who did what on this makeup?" "I sculpted the face and the backs of the legs, and" "And I did the whole paint job, from head to toes." "I think it came out really well." "All in all, it was really successful as far as, you know, holding up in the water, which was one of the challenges, so good job, ladies." " Thank you." " I love it." "I walk yesterday in the shop, and I saw your work, and I thought those were the only two that decided to do something that's very much of a fish, and not some kind of hybrid man-fish face." "And I thought that was a very bold choice." " Great work." " Thank you." "Thank you." "You can both step back." "Jerry and Nix, if you would please step forward." "Okay, who did what on this fiasco, guys?" "I led sculpturally, then Nix led painting." "I gotta tell you, your turtle was a turd, I'm sorry." "I think the best thing on your turtle was his shoulders, and unfortunately, the minute he got in the water, everything blew off, which was kind of a bummer." "I mean, was it glued on at all?" " Yeah." " And it all blew off anyway?" "Damn!" "One of the key thing about this sculpt is it looks very, very cartoonish, which is actually very dangerous because the paint job using green and brown together on the same character was very risky." "If one of you is the person who ends up hanging tonight, which do you think it should be?" "Just for application, I would say Jerry." "He threw me under the bus." "I can't believe you just did that, dude." " Jerry?" " Uh..." "I'm not gonna throw Nix under the bus." "You know, I'm gonna say we're equally responsible." "I will agree with that." "We are both equally responsible." "Thank you, guys." "You can step back." "Tara and Matt, you're next." "Tell me who did what on this makeup." "Uh, I handled the sculpting of the prosthetic, the chest and the fins." "Um, I headed up the paint job, and I also wanna say he came up with the creature idea." "I'll tell you right away that this is an incredible work." "I'm very impressed with it." "I think your color scheme, the way you played with the appliance, the way this functions in the water, it's a gorgeous piece." "Thank you." "I agree, and I think this is an absolutely fantastic makeup." "The little filigree work that's in the sculpture absolutely thrilled me." "Well done." "The idea that you took that iridescent fabric and put it around the edges of all your appliances was a very clever way to hide your edges, and it did nothing but enhance the makeup." "Yeah." "All right, thank you." "You can step back." "Rj and Ian, please come to the center." "Glenn, let's start with you." "Please start by telling us a little bit about the concept." "It's a zebra shark." "Uh, he's a lawyer." "And a shark lawyer." "In your opinions, how well do you feel you did with this makeup?" "I actually was really happy with how it turned out." "I think that the hands could have been executed a little bit better." "I'll go so far as to agree with you on that wholeheartedly." "If you're gonna put clothes on somebody that's going into the water, you should have sewn him into those things because the minute he hit the water, everything covered up your makeup job." "Uh, I think that kind of blew it for you." "If I go home over a terrible wardrobe choice and having a clean makeup, I'm gonna be pretty upset." "All right, guys, can you please step back?" "Thank you." "Okay, the judges have heard what you've all had to say." "If you'd please head back to the makeup room while they make their decision." "All right, judges." "Okay, let's talk about some of the best and the worst looks of the night." "Let's start with Heather and Athena." "What are you thoughts?" "I really liked that lionfish." "I thought it was really well-done." "Heather was a very big driver." "She was the one in charge of the sculpt of the face." "Kudos to her for being able to let go of the wheel when it came to the body painting, because it was the right choice." "Athena killed that paintjob." "Matt and Tara's?" "It was Matt's design and direction." "Where do we bring Tara into this as far as her contributions?" "Well, I think she's mainly responsible for the coloring." "As beautiful as the sculpt is and the design..." "Yeah." "A bad paint job could have sank that thing." "Yeah, it could have." "And the paint job was amazing." "Jerry and Nix." "It was a turd-le." "They were the guys that said that they wanted to play safe, and I don't know they realize that they played the opposite." "They played very risky to me." "Why would they paint it that bright green when they had everything else in the beige tones?" "That" " It didn't go." "Ultimately, the result shows you that there was a complete disconnection between both sides of the work, and it's just terrible." "Okay, so any thoughts on Ian and RJ, then?" "It was just kind of a mess." "They didn't glue his clothes down, they didn't put the fins in the right place." "That idea seems like one of those first ideas that you blurt out." "Yeah, yeah, I couldn't agree more." "So, judges, have you reached your decision yet?" "I think we did." " Yeah, we have." " Yep." "Okay, let's bring them back out." "All right, Glenn, why don't you tell us about the top looks tonight?" "Our top teams are..." "Heather and Athena, with the lionfish." "Really bold decisions and an extremely even collaboration between the two of you." "And Matt and Tara with the basslet." "A unique concept and extremely clean execution." "So then, which team came out on top?" "The top team tonight is..." "The top team tonight is..." "Matt and Tara with the basslet." " Congratulations, Matt, Tara." " Thank you." "But we can only have one winner, so, Glenn, who would that be?" "Tonight's winner is..." "Matt." "Thank you." "We felt that you contributed the defining conceptual element that really drove the piece to its final form." " Congratulations, Matt." " Thank you." "You and Tara can head back to the makeup room." "I can't believe it." "This is my first win." "To me, it's like a dream come true." "Yay, we knew it." "He the" " He's the ultimate winner though." "Just to hear the judges comment positively on my work and praise it is all I really wanted." "Athena, Heather, you are also safe." "You can head back to the makeup room." " Thank you." " Thank you." " Hell of a job." " Good luck, guys." "Thanks." "Unfortunately, this means you are bottom looks this week." "So, one of you will be eliminated." "Please step to the center." "Glenn?" "Ian and RJ, the random fin placement and inadequate anatomy of your creation, combined with the fact that you blew the opportunity to work with the entire body" "We had a guy in a suit getting into a tank of water" "Didn't really add up for us." "Jerry and Nix, with your sea turtle..." "Poor decision-making, I think, from the beginning, and an overall lack of quality in the work in its final form." "So who's going home tonight?" "The person going home tonight is..." "Nix." "It just felt like you had this huge opportunity to show us your body painting skills tonight, and it wasn't there." "It just didn't happen for you." "It's definitely, uh, a lot" " A lot harder than I thought it was gonna be." "Nix, I have seen your work, and I know you're amazing." "I'm sorry to see you go, honey." "I really am." "That means a lot coming from you." "Thank you." "Nix, I'm sorry, but you have been eliminated." "It's been great having you here with us." "But if you would please head back to the makeup room, and pack up your kit." "It's been an honor." "Sorry." "Aww..." "Yeah, I'm" " I'm going home, guys." "Really, I'm not ready to go home." "I don't feel like I've had the chance to really show people what I'm capable of." "I'm an artist established for body painting, and I'm just gonna have to work a little harder to show" "I'm capable of doing special effects as well."
