I've been thinking...

as I do...

makeup artists are rather unsung - are they not? I mean... these guys/gals are artists like actors and set designers etc, so I'm considering a (spn) makeup artist appreciation post. (yeah I know... too much time on my hands.../o\) Possibly not enthralling viewing but these guys deserve some lovin'!

So, if you can rec me some makeup highlights over the last 7 years I'd appreciate it (and no I'm not talking about the time SamnDean have made up... sheesh...). Off the top of my head I'm thinking Dean after Lucifer!Sam beat him to a pulp in Swan Song. Even Sam in Born Again Idenity. Maybe some of the monsters...? I think Dean's transformation in Skin has to be up there... that was pretty amazing.

In other news... I ordered the Vote Winchester & Winchester T shirt. I ordered large cause I wanted it nice and baggy. It arrived today and seriously? That's a large? I would hate to see medium or small. I reckon it would be about an Aus size 8. I guess returning it isn't possible. Looks like it might be an incentive to start jogging again...

What a great idea. I got hooked into Syfy's Face Off last year and now have a higher appreciation of their work. Especially when its subtle. I don't know about the other SPN make-up artists (mainly because I haven't looked) but I came across Tamar Ouziel page. I love the close ups the small cuts/bruises - it just impresses me more than some of the more obvious and elaborate fx makeup. It also means you really can't go wrong as every episode has awesome makeup, and fx ingenuity ;)

Oh that link to Tamar's page is simply wonderful!! Thank you.

And that TV show looks very cool.

I think it's the subtle work that I love best also.

I think I'll look up the other makeup artists and see what I can find out them. :))

Thanks <3
