Face Off Season 10 episode 10 has the artists selecting an eyeball to create a cyclops character. To complete the look of these characters, the show has arranged for 6-7 foot tall models.

Round 1 – create a captain character based on his signature ship in 2 hours. The catch with this is that they have to hand-lay a beard. So anyone hesitant about laying a beard […]
