Catacomb Practical

Hype-man for practical effects, gore and goop. ⚠️Graphic media warning at all times⚠️
An oldie, but a goodie makeup from over a decade ago. A design that I manifested from sculpt to makeup application. This is all my work (minus sourcing someone to run the foam prosthetics). This makeup application won me a first place spot in the ONLY makeup competition I’ve ever tried out for.
I started curating a list of special make up artists and builders specialized in monsters and prosthetics. Drop me a line if you know an account that should be on here. #specialEffects #spfx #sfx #practicalFx #fxMakeUp #makeUpEffects #makeUpFx #specialMakeUpFx #monsterMaker #prosthetics

Some of my infection designs from the now all-broadcast Generation-Z. Info in alt text.
The last episode of Generation-Z airs tonight on Channel 4 (already available on their vod platform) so here’s a puppet I designed for a previous episode that featured some self-surgery. We also made matching prosthetic versions of different stages to edit between. Credits in alt text.
