Human looking or not (not,) it was too clean and glossy to make for a convincing wastelander makeup. And don't get me wrong, I think Emily is awesome, but she seems to be falling back into that same issue she had in her first season, ie BIG hair.

Can't stand the guy, but Paul WS Anderson was right saying it looked like some Clive Barker poo poo. It was still the best makeup that week.

I thought it was the headdress and wig getting that attribution but now that I see the facepiece and forehead crown design, yeah, fair enough. I guess Mad Max needs some more inspiring radiated mutants.

Stone sailor. Hilarious, if anything it was apeing popeye a little too much but it looks fine. Robot body was cool, head looks like poo poo. Leather clown and felted ballerina were cool though.

Stone marionette/puppet is such a dumb idea however you cut it, it's not like they could have done an actual serious take on that concept. So of course it was going to be wacky and dumb. But that face was still really lovely. Also holy gently caress but Ben and Evan suck all the fun out if this show whenever they're on screen, they just don't seem like they want to be there at all. I can't believe they said "Thank god it's not an elimination challenge" at the very start of the episode, god drat.

I had much higher expectations for Ben and Evan. I may be remembering their seasons wrong but I thought they both had potential. Granted I'm not sure where I would have gone with a gold smith but I'm sure Cig/George or Emily/Tyler would have knocked it out of the park. I also get the vibe that Logan hates being on a team with Adam. A fun fact I learned from their twitter page, Cig has a corgi named Tupacshacorgi.

Oh man for real, as she was explaining "I thought this needed more but I've never seen anyone do it, so I invented my own technique" I was like  Really amazing, and I'm glad the judges recognized. "What, did you just make that up!?" "YEAH SHE DID  " "Unbelieveable!" sums it all up.THAT SAID, I do think Cig & George could have won this week due to the AWESOME leather texturing in their face. It was really, really, REALLY good. Plus the wise decisions on not going too goofy and ruining it. Knowing what not to do is half the battle.

Yeah, they need some serious design clarity that I don't think is going to happen for them. Also slightly disappointing me is Logan, I remember him as energetic and creative in his season, but he seems really passive this time, not sure why. Maybe he feels cramped working with hyperactive Adam?

I also get the vibe that Logan hates being on a team with Adam. They were finalists on on what I think was by far the least talented group of any season. Ben was on the bottom at least 3 times in the final few episodes(though I think he also had some of the strongest work from that season) and Evan was always just barely not bad enough to get eliminated. I'm honestly surprised they have lasted this long.

The rock sailor marionettes stroke face was just the worst. I'm all for doofy but that wasn't whimsical or amusing at all. Also those hands and forearm prosthetics looked pretty bad overall. Not an elimination week so like it even matters anyway.

I would love to see this show move to 'blind judging' format. That is, they don't know who did what. As it is, everything some folks do is "the very best" even when it's clear garbage. Like that leather clown. Come on - they did a face. That's all. Lots of time spent on that dumb-a hat (that cig just had to wear) and a barrel. That's all. Yet "because it's cig", it's in top looks. Safe, for sure but not top. The two lame dudes - the whole ep I kept thinking "these two need to go". I mean, it's a *contest*, so when you give up on camera, time to pack the bags and leave.

To be honest, I don't know what you can really do with a golden marionette. "Golden ballerina" works fine on paper, but Tyler and Emily did basically the same concept and knocked it out of the park while theirs was just sort of flat and middling.

So was it just luck that Tyler and Emily's model also happened to be a ballerina? I mean she was doing the pointe technique and poo poo, which is pretty difficult to fake.

I think for the goldsmith puppet, rather than trying to do straight gold which is obvious even IF it worked, they should have done like stone with gold ore sticking out. That way it wouldn't be all ....yellow. It would be broken up with the stone tones, and the story could be potentially more interesting, like part of the mine came alive one day or something. Really anything's better than "His daughter died so sad." Tyler and Emily are both so adorable.

The only real drama this season is who's going to end up in the finale with Tyler/Emily and Cig/George, right? I mean, there hasn't been a season this lopsided since Anthony. Unless they do some bullshit like split the teams up for the finale or something. As far as the third-place contenders are concerned, the stone guy just looks rough (the face is okay, but the rest of the body is terrible), but I didn't think the gold one was that bad. The iron giant just looks like it's all fabrication, was there any actual makeup involved?

I think the final four of the first returnee season were obviously waaaay better than their competition but, yeah pretty much. Having some people be obvious finalists doesn't really bother me in talent based reality shows unlike it would in Survivor.

Glancing at wikipedia, seasons 4, 5, and 6 are probably worthwhile. Season 3 was also Laura's first appearance, and Season 8 was Emily's first appearance. Season 7 was when Lois Burwell judged.

I am really split on Ben and Evan this season. I mean, they're personable enough, but it seems like they really only come through when it's an elimination challenge (though their skeleton girl in the Monster High challenge was really good). It's a little 'here we go again' when they got Jekyll/Hyde and gold puppet that they were like 'we have NO ideas' and just kind of muddle through it. I'm thinking Tyler and Emily are taking the whole thing, but it also seems like it can come down to luck of the draw with the topic.

I think my main issue with that face is that it would have been fine for a goofy rock troll that grew organically from natural stone formations but there's no way a stone mason would have carved something that lopsided and haphazard. The mission brief was to create something that looked like it was made by a stone mason and that face fell way outside the brief.

A gargoyle or a grotesque who was sick of watching everything from above and wanted to join in the fun. An inukshuk who felt abandoned and followed some travelers home. A statue who was built halfway and the commisssion fell through. A bunch of cool stone concepts that could exist and look like they were made for a purpose, but they decided to go with a goofy stone thing. Concept was flawed, but the stone was good at least.

So Emily & Tyler and Cig & George have been taking turns at first place now for six episodes now and neither team has been in bottom looks yet. They're outclassing the other teams so much it's ridiculous. Ben & Evan and Adam & Logan are basically facing off against each other to see who'll get to be the third wheel in the final and it really could go either way, they're both struggling at every element of the show. Not that it really matters which of those teams goes through, they're not really any threat. Ben & Evan had one good character this episode which put them into top looks which gives them a slight advantage but they could really easily stuff it up.

From the previews for next week it looked like they're split into two teams overall so I'm curious to see how it goes. But yeah it's basically two super teams and then those other guys. Regarding Michelle and Keaghlan (what a name), I felt like Michelle was the stronger half of that team. The petrification on the troll was a really neat touch and she was responsible for all the cool fabrications on their puppet, wasn't she?
