Face Off (2011) s06e12 Episode Script

This makeup doesn't really work.
It's really quite beautiful.
You have to turn your game up at this point.
Previously, onFace Off Tyler's wall-crawling mutant brought him an astounding fourth victory.
Oh, my God.
And Graham was sent home.
With only five artists remaining, tonight, they face a challenge of bionic extremes.
It's the future that brings us here today.
This is right up my alley.
And the competition explodes with a dramatic fight to the finish.
- It's gonna come apart.
- Fuck.
I'm really worried, because if I don't have this, I'm not gonna have anything.
I'm looking around, everybody seems to be going larger.
This challenge is so far out of my league.
- You have blown me away.
- I'm not really a big fan.
This is the best thing that you have showed us.
In the end, only one will win a VIP trip from Kryolan Professional Make-Up to one of their a brand new 2014 Fiat 500, and $100,000.
Who'll be the next great name in movie magic? Face Off! Welcome toFace Off.
- Five of us, man.
- Final five.
You can almost taste the final.
We're that much closer to the finale, and everyone remaining has wins, and I don't.
So I just need to get into that zone and focus on the goal.
All right, guys, let's see what our next challenge is.
Everybody's on their A game, so I can't make anymore mistakes because that'll be my ticket home.
Where are we today? - Union Station.
- Oh, nice.
Whoa.
Oh, this is big.
We are at Union Station, and it's just beautiful.
I can smell the old furniture and the wood.
It's like history.
I'm smelling history here.
Hey, guys.
Welcome to Union Station in downtown Los Angeles, known as the last of the great railway stations.
This historic transportation hub continues to serve over 60,000 passengers a day.
- Mm.
- It's also been a popular filming location for movies like Drag Me To Hell, The Dark Knight Rises, and the futuristic sci-fi thriller, Blade Runner.
And it is the future that brings us here today.
- Nice.
- Okay.
This is the old ticketing room, and once upon a time, it was the station's bustling nerve center, but its ticketing agents have since been replaced with machines.
Now, with the onslaught of machines handling tasks that were once exclusively done by humans, one can't help but wonder, how long until we're all replaced? Now, next to me are props representing various occupations.
We have a surgeon, photographer, hairdresser, firefighter, chef, and construction worker.
You're spotlight challenge is to select one of them and create the robot that has taken that professional's place - in the workforce.
- Nice.
Awesome.
We get to do futuristic robots.
This is right up my alley.
Tyler, you're up first.
Surgeon.
Photographer.
Firefighter.
The construction worker.
Hairdresser.
Before you begin your designs, there's just one more thing I need to tell you.
Each of your robots must display an extreme functional advantage over their human counterparts.
_ I'm slightly terrified, because I know a robot that has multiple functions is gonna be a lot of work, and this is not my thing.
It's time to start working on your designs, and I want to remind you, do not go for the obvious.
Make bold choices that will surprise and impress our judges.
Good luck.
- Thank you.
- See you later.
I have firefighter.
It's actually something I thought about being for a long time.
I want this character to be very big and be able to save the day.
I also want to incorporate the eagle on the helmet.
There's no truck, because this robot can put out a fire by himself.
I'll be taking a chance on doing a lot of fabrication and hardly any makeup.
I plan on making the head a camera, fabricated chest, which is gonna be a huge light on the front because it needs to shine light on whatever subject that the camera's gonna be taking a picture of.
You need a lot of time to fabricate a robot, and I'm not a big fabricator, so I'm gonna sculpt everything.
I want to make my hairdresser robot very cool and elegant and something pleasant to the eye.
So the concept for my hairdresser is a female robot.
She's gonna be stylish and modern looking and hip.
The special feature that my robot is gonna have is two blowers coming out of her breasts, and her hands are gonna have different fingers with the scissors and the nose clipper.
Each hand will have utility.
All right, guys, let's head back to the lab.
- This is gonna be fun.
- Oh, yeah.
It's day one of our robot challenge.
We get six hours in the lab.
We have an extra day for this challenge.
That means I get more time to work with the fabrication, which tends to take a little extra time anyway, but the first thing I do is sculpt the face.
I decided to cover one eye with wires, put two lenses in the forehead and one over the nose so it looks like it has three eyes that can rotate and see different things.
Holy fuck, man.
What the fuck is that? Nice.
My robot can see the structure of a building as well as things that might be harmful to people.
That way, he could replace a human.
I've worked in a hospital setting before, so the surgeon one kind of screamed to me.
This surgical robot has these little arms that come out on both sides, and I want it to have a human-looking face.
So I vacuformed my model's life cast to create a face shield.
So when it talks to people, they're not looking at a creepy-looking machine.
I selected a construction worker, and I know that I have to do something big.
This robot is from the future, but it's the first generation of this kind of machine, but he can still do the work.
I want it to have all the cables and everything coming on the face, and then everything else is just gonna be fabricated around it.
I immediately get to work building a face for my futuristic photographer robot.
I'm basically sculpting with wood instead of clay, and I'll be using a router and a dremel and a hand saw and everything else to make this face look like a camera.
I've been a carpenter since I've been 16.
I'm used to working with wood, but I've never actually used wood to do a makeup or make a robot.
- Hey, guys.
- Hey.
- Here for a walkthrough.
- How are you? You left this lower jaw open, and so it's gonna look like a human who's wearing it.
- Mm-hmm.
- You're gonna have to keep adding pieces to cover anything that is skin.
Mm-hmm.
This is gonna be the face here.
- Okay.
- Is it gonna be all basically gadgets? Or are you working any type of makeup in there with it? I was playing with the idea of a silicone face that goes over my model.
If you do that, I would make sure you kind of square things off a bit as opposed to making it flow like a human in there or something.
Right, right.
How are you gonna incorporate the aspects of hairdressing? Her boobies are gonna be like hairdryers, and they suck also the hairs that fall from the person.
- It goes-- - Okay.
Sucks it in and throws it out in the back.
You know, the thing is, I don't know if this is going to sell as a hairdryer.
You might rethink that design a little bit.
Might be able to combine this all into one or something so it comes down-- Like a blow dryer or something-- And actually maybe take a piece of plastic, and then mount it in there so you know that's a dryer.
You need to do something to-- And it's similar to a dryer of our time, exactly.
Exactly.
Are you planning on covering it all with this type of wiring? No, the wire is gonna be in this bottom part and around the eyes.
To me, it looks like a face that you put worms over the top of it in these areas here.
I think you need to be a little bit more powerful in your bridge across here and in your nose.
What you want to do is make planes as opposed to rounding off.
Otherwise, I'm afraid it's gonna look like a person.
What you can do to maybe get away from this human look with the eyes and the mouth is do a lower lip in a separate piece, just so you get a whole mechanical mouth, or that's gonna look like a person.
Okay.
All right, gentlemen, we're heading out.
- Good luck to everybody.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
- Bye.
I take Mr.
Westmore's advice by taking away human form.
I distort the face.
I make it look very mechanical.
And I'm back on track.
Now it's time to mold.
I always try to get the face first because that's the most important element in a makeup.
At this point, everyone is in the mold room, but I'm gonna spend more time working on the changes that Mr.
Westmore told me to do.
But after I finish, I only have a less than an hour, and I still have to mold it.
I'm molding as fast as I can, but I don't think I'm gonna be able to open and clean this by the end of the day.
Since we have an extra day, I think it will be worth it to just open it tomorrow.
All right, everyone.
That's time.
My sculpture is ready for opening tomorrow.
I feel pretty good with my face, and I'm excited to start working on the other pieces.
Whoo! Ah! It's day two.
We have nine hours in the lab today.
The first thing I need to do is check the silicone to make sure it set up so I can pull the wood out of that and then pour resin into it for the face on the robotic camera.
But right now, I need to get sculpting on a face so I can have a base to attach all this stuff to.
As soon as my face piece is ready for foam latex, I start sculpting the chest piece for my construction worker.
I'm taking my time to do a really good sculpture so it doesn't look too similar as last challenge.
And because we have an extra day, maybe tomorrow I can spend my whole day just working on the robot suit.
I'm sculpting this chest piece that I'm gonna incorporate these little helping hands coming out that spread open the tissue during surgery.
I'm gonna vacuform it, so I can use this same piece as my back.
This challenge is all about the really smart, quick decision, and this is gonna help me save time.
I'm following Mr.
Westmore's advice, and my robot is gonna have a hair blower coming out from her chest.
Everybody's doing all this L200 and gluing, but the last time I fabricated pieces, I almost got eliminated.
At the same time, it's kind of hard to make foam look like metal, and I would hate to go home now.
At least, I want to go to the finale.
So I'm afraid sculpting this robot is a big mistake.
Coming up This is so far out of my league.
Maybe I didn't do enough.
He won't be able to move.
It's gonna come apart.
I don't have time to do another bodysuit.
I think you really missed the mark on this one.
You hit the right notes.
It's the second day of the robot challenge, and I'm sculpting the chest piece and the cowl.
My strength is sculpting, not really fabrication.
But foam moves like foam.
It doesn't move like metals.
So there's a big risk, but I'll have to do what I do best.
It's got a blow dryer on the front.
Oh, you got a blow dryer.
I hope I made a good decision on doing this, so hopefully, the judges won't send me home.
With this fireman suit, I'm using L200, a very flexible material.
It can also be very rigid.
This fireman has vents on his chest that are gonna be taking in the smoke and putting out fresh oxygen through the back, and a water tank on his back with an arm that goes over the shoulder with a hose on it.
I really want to get my two arms and chest done so that all I really have to focus on the third day is the legs.
So to create these extremities coming off of my robot and the headpiece with the vacuform face in the front, I take PVC pipe, cut several different sections, and I velcro every piece to a black spandex suit.
It's gonna be so much easier in application, where the models can just slip into the suits and pull everything on.
I'm hoping the bright, white pieces will help your eye get rid of that black suit, and all you see is the form of the robot.
I'm creating, for my robot construction worker, an arm piece that will hold a lot of different tools.
There you go.
So I got this idea to fabricate quick slots for each one of the tools.
I vacuform all these tools.
I have a drill, a wrench, screwdrivers.
It's starting to look really cool.
I finished the mold, and honestly I think it looks beautiful.
It's gonna be foam.
It's not fabricating a robot.
But I'm liking the way it's looking.
The only thing that's worrying me is that tomorrow I've got to fabricate some arms, and I'm not sure how they'll come out.
By end of day two, I have all these pieces laid out and everything pretty much is almost covered.
And then I realize that the mannequin I'm using is 6' tall, and my model's 5'.
All right, guys, that's time.
I hope I didn't waste all this time doing this suit because I don't even know if it's gonna fit my model.
Robot.
I don't know what to do.
I know a mistake like this can send you home.
Yeah! It's the third day of the robot challenge, and I'm gonna concentrate now on the arm pieces and the hands.
The tools that I got for my hairdresser, they're very stylized combs and scissors, and they're actually very cool tools.
I'm taking all the tools, and I'm casting them in resin, which is plastic that's gonna be lighter so that it won't weigh down my model's fingers.
- Oh, nice.
- Really lightweight.
As soon as I get to the lab, I start working with my full-bodysuit robot.
Where is that paper that you said that you used? I get some advice from Rashaad because he's the king of fabrication.
You draw it, you cut it, and then you put it-- - draw two.
- Okay.
It's gonna be a little bit challenging because it's the first fabrication that I do for a whole suit, so it's very important for me to take my time and make sure that I can put all the pieces together in a way that looks cool and it has movement.
And I want to make it really big.
What you makin'? I'm makin' a robot! I'm taking advantage of this extra day because I have a lot to do.
I start getting everything on the spandex suit, start to tie in tubing and wires to really give the robot feel.
And I want to give the sense that this thing has a functioning brain, so to create this illusion, I glue LED light strips to the top of the spandex cap.
So it almost looks like a circuit board computer on the inside, and it looks cool.
Today, I've got to get a helmet made for this robot, and I've also got to get a chest piece made, which will reflect light on whatever the camera's gonna be taking pictures of.
The first thing I do is I vacuform over a styrofoam head so I can get a shape of a helmet.
I cut that out, and now I need to move on to the chest piece.
I hope I can just get it right.
Today, I need to finish the legs, the feet, and an arm that goes over the shoulder.
- Is that like a hose? - Yeah, for-- to feed the water through.
My time management is where I need it to be, and I need to get this armor latexed down so I can paint it.
I'm gluing L200 onto the bodysuit.
Is that gonna be able to bend? - Yeah.
- You sure? - I think so.
- But you glued it all together.
So now he won't be able to move his arms.
And Rashaad's telling me that I kind of, like, screwed myself.
- It's gonna come apart.
- You think so? Yeah because you glued it all straight.
I left some spaces so he can move, but I glued the joints together.
I put a screw and a washer so it could bend.
But you glued it all straight, so it's not gonna be able to bend now.
I don't have time to do another bodysuit.
You got to leave that open, and then I hope you do the same thing for the legs.
I'm really worried because, if I don't get this bodysuit done the right way, I'm gonna be in trouble.
I need to fix this or I'm going home.
Fuck.
It's day three from our robot challenge.
He won't be able to move his arms.
Okay.
I mistakenly glued the robot's joints together.
Don't glue nothing there.
Don't glue nothing in the back.
Leave this all open.
And Rashaad starts giving really good advice, so I make sure that I unglue all these parts and make sure that all his joints are free of glue so he can actually have some movement.
I need to fix this so I can move on to fabricating the helmet.
I'm making vacuform pieces for the robot arms.
The arms are not perfect.
They're not super pristine like I wanted it to be.
It's kind of rough on the edges.
They're looking like vacuform pieces, but with a good paint job, I'll make it work.
I'll make it happen.
A lot of times in doing armor, people make it bright and shiny, but a firefighter breaking through buildings and knocking down doors and having smoke constantly on them, it's going to be dirty.
It's gonna have scratches where you can see the silver metallic paint under it.
Exactly how I was as a little kid playing with toys, this is how I feel doing this robot.
So I'm in a good place.
Feeling very good today.
I've got everything done that I wanted to do.
I've got all of the lenses and plastic parts and metal pieces for my futuristic robotic camera.
Everybody else seems to be going really large, but all I'm doing is a robot face, and I'm okay with that.
This is so far out of my league.
I don't do robots, so we'll see what happens.
All right, guys, it's time.
I feel pretty good about application day tomorrow.
All's I need to do is get these things glued to the foam and start putting everything together.
Maybe I didn't do enough.
I could be going home or I could be a winner.
I just don't know.
That's right.
So we get back to the house.
We're all completely worn out.
Oh, my God.
How do you guys feel? - Worn out.
- Me too.
I'm tired.
With the stress of the challenge and the competition, I'm feeling mentally tired.
I'm definitely missing my motorcycle, my girlfriend.
Daran, happy birthday.
Hey, buddy! Happy birthday to you! Red velvet.
Thank you, thank you.
To my surprise, my roommates know it's my birthday.
I basically forgot about it myself, and they bring out my favorite, red velvet cupcakes.
- Thank you, gents.
- Whoo-hoo! - Final five.
- Final five.
We made it this far.
There's only five of us left.
So the pressure is really on now to get to the finale, and I'm hopin' I can make it.
- Good luck.
- Oh, definitely good luck.
So it's application day.
We have four hours in the lab, and one hour at last looks.
I start taking the robot apart, knowing that it's all gonna go back on really well if everything fits.
But I'm also nervous that this thing may not fit my model.
I obviously do not know how everything's gonna turn out until my model tries this thing on.
So on this application, I really need to make sure the face piece is glued down perfectly because it will be holding a lot of weight.
So I'm gonna have to put some latex in it, which will help the bond of the glue, and this should work out great.
Here they come.
You're gonna be a hairdresser from the future.
Okay.
I'm nervous that it's not gonna fit you 'cause it's so tall, but we'll have to see.
So this is what you got.
I try all the armor on my model to make sure everything fits.
Little kid's dreams.
That's exactly how I design.
Every time I design a character, I always think to myself, "Would my son want to play with it?" And I think this robot looks like a superhero.
He looks amazing.
Oh, yeah.
This is gonna have a light.
For my construction worker, the first thing that I want to do is finish that helmet.
Almost there.
Almost there.
I need to work as fast as I can so I can start painting the whole robot suit.
It's big, so it's gonna take me a little bit of time.
Oh, that's a big gap here.
Let me see.
I don't want the judges to be seeing any human form.
Otherwise, it won't sell as a robot.
So I'm taking this windshield tint, put it on the surface of the face.
Perfect.
And you just see metallic reflection, but my model can actually see through it.
It's very good stuff.
I start zipping everything up, popping everything on, and everything actually fits great.
Ah! This thing looks like it can actually operate.
It's amazing.
Yeah, it's perfect.
Ten minutes, guys, ten minutes! Coming around.
I'm looking around the room and noticing that there are some really strong makeups.
Beautiful.
Everybody's robots is just lookin' amazing.
All right, guys.
It's time.
Brushes down.
There's only five of us left, and everybody else has wins, and I don't.
I really have to get a win, or else there's no way I can make it to the finale.
Coming up Paint job is still not there.
It's gonna look like a silver spoon.
I don't have a clue where I stand.
He's amazing.
I couldn't believe it when he walked out.
He's clumsy.
His proportions are a little wacky.
That is one of the strangest shapes I've ever seen.
Yay, I get my corner! We get to last looks.
We have one hour left.
The most important thing is getting this mouthpiece glued on and gettin' all of these lenses and plastic parts put on so this can look like a camera.
I've got a hot glue gun.
I've got some five-minute epoxy, and it's just all about attaching things now.
This little piece I found attaches right to the top of that.
The paint job is still not there, and everything's gonna look like a silver spoon.
So I decided to go with a faint gold wash.
I think it's working.
It's looking very stylish.
I'm getting the face shield on, getting everything adjusted.
I'm building this thing not knowing how it's gonna turn out.
I really hope it's enough for the judges.
It's pretty intense.
I'm trying to apply everything as fast as I can, but I'm worried if I can get all the pieces painted and done.
I forgot the box cutter.
I got one.
Here.
I've pre-painted so much, all I have to do is touch up some weathering and yellow highlights on his back, and he's ready to go.
Ten minutes, guys! That's it, everybody.
That's time.
I've been pretty steady throughout this whole competition, but I really have to get a win because I definitely want to be in the finale.
Welcome to theFace Off reveal stage.
Tonight, one of you will be eliminated.
First, let's say hello to our talented panel of judges.
Owner of Optic Nerve Makeup Effects Studio, Glenn Hetrick.
- Good evening.
- Hello.
Three-time Oscar-winning makeup artist, Ve Neill.
- Hi, guys.
- Hi, Ve.
Creature and concept designer Neville Page.
- Hello.
- Hello.
All right, this week, your spotlight challenge was to select a professional and create a robot that has replaced them in the workforce.
Now, I also asked that your robots display an extreme functional or articulating advantage over their human counterparts.
So let's take a look at your creations.
From a distance, all you see is this exoskeleton, and it just looks like this thing is really operating in front of my eyes.
It looks so cool.
Everything I envisioned has come to life.
This is my first robot that I've ever attempted to make.
Kept it nice and clean and robotic looking.
I'm very satisfied with it.
She's looking very slick and beautiful.
She's looking like a freaking robot from The Jetsons.
It looks pretty cool.
He has a good presence.
It's looking really big and massive, and I just want to hear what the judges have to say.
Judges, why don't you take a closer look at the robotic replacements? It makes sense functionally.
Smart thing too about just doing the spandex bodysuit.
Just let it disappear.
Love the layers.
This is really cool.
And it's cool that he put work under it for us to see too.
- Yeah.
- Good.
Thank you.
This dude is killer.
It's actually even better close up, huh? Yeah.
Look at all this detail.
- Yeah.
- Wow.
I absolutely love this flourish, just to break it up a little bit.
Can you turn to the side? Look at how tight that profile is on his head.
Can you turn all the way around? Plus his choice of weathering, it gives it history.
Okay.
Thank you.
I think heartbeeps have more complexity in the chest piece than this thing does.
Like a lampshade.
Is it possible that something didn't come out? I don't have a clue where I stand.
I'm still feeling like I didn't do enough on this makeup, so I'm really worried about what the judges are gonna say.
I mean, we really have just this face.
- This is so minimal.
- It is.
I don't do robots, so it could very well be me going home.
Who made your favorite robot? Tell us on Twitter using #FaceOff.
This is so minimal.
We really have just this face.
Maybe I didn't do enough.
It could very well be me going home.
This is wood.
Hmm.
Thanks.
It feels so retro accurate, it could step off of original Battlestar Galactica-- - Biddy, biddy, biddy.
- Mm-hmm.
It's an interesting choice.
I kind of like it there.
I think it's an attachment for her hand.
- Yeah.
- Thank you.
There's a ton of work.
All scruffy, mind you, but every single region has been addressed.
I love whatever this is.
I just wish he would've explored this more.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
Okay, the judges would now like to speak with each of you to learn more about your work.
- Tyler, step forward.
- Okay.
Tyler, tell us how the profession that you selected inspired your robot design this week.
I wanted to do something like the surgeon of the future, a robot that can really take on the job of several surgeons at once.
I think you did a fantastic job, particularly the construction out of very rudimentary elements, of the harness that holds that face piece out from the face.
I think that's your great triumph this week.
It's really cool, and it's fun to look at.
Thank you.
She doesn't seem to be too futuristic, which is kind of a nice thing in a weird kind of way because it makes her look a little bit more familiar.
I think she's pretty sweet, honey.
- Nice job.
- Thank you.
What's great is you've hit all the right notes of what implies this being a medical product, and it all kind of stacks up to being a nice, solid character.
Thank you.
Tyler, thank you very much.
Please step back.
Daran, if you'd please step to the center.
Can you tell us how your profession inspired your robot? I chose the futuristic photographer.
I wanted to make a robotic head that was nothing but a camera.
Definitely out of my element.
I don't make robots.
I can tell.
I'm disappointed in this.
It just doesn't have the vavoom that all the rest of them have.
This looks like a guy with just, like, a little rubber vest on with a big plate in the middle of it.
I think you really missed the mark on this one this week.
Yeah, I don't do robots.
I'm sorry.
That right there is your main problem this week.
Even though the robot thing is not your bag, focusing on the fundamental ideas of proportion and functionality would've helped go a long way.
What I struggle with is the overall silhouette and the codpiece thing.
It turns it from a potentially sophisticated concept into a cartoon-like character.
Yeah.
Daran, thank you very much.
Please step back.
Rashaad, you're up.
So tell us about the profession and how it inspired this guy.
I always think of a firefighter as heroic and cool, so that's what inspired my design.
Definitely heroic.
You sculpted and fabricated an entire costume, which is astonishing.
Thank you.
I think this is the best thing that you have showed us so far this season.
- Thank you.
- It's all about function, what the thing does.
And that's exciting, because that makes you really believe that the thing was built for a specific task, which is exactly what we asked you to do.
Thank you.
- He's amazing.
- Thank you.
I couldn't believe it when he walked out.
He looks like he's been through hell.
He looks like he's been through a blowtorch about 40 times.
And the fact that you spray-painted that yellow is awesome.
You have blown me away this week.
Thank you.
Rashaad, you can step back.
You were lookin' for that win.
You got it.
Finally.
I hope so.
Niko, please step to the center.
Niko, tell us how your profession inspired your robot.
I think about construction workers, like, big and bulky, and I wanted to create a big machine that is in the future, but it's, like, the first series.
You certainly did a lot of work this week, but it's a bit clunky, isn't it? Yeah.
Could've been proportioned a little bit more elegantly and still looked rough industrial.
Okay.
He does have that kind of clunky feel, but he's kind of fun.
I particularly like those-- what are they called, Neville? - Hydraulic cylinders? - Yes.
- Oh, this? - Yes, the hydraulic cylinders.
It's a really neat little touch that you put on him, and I think he's kind of sweet.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
His proportions are a little wacky.
He's got this big beluga head.
He's clumsy.
There's, like, all sorts of weird stuff goin' on with this.
I'm not really a big fan of it, but it's cohesive.
Okay.
Niko, thank you.
George, please step forward.
Oh, there you go.
All right, can you tell us how your profession inspired your robot? Her name is V-3000.
It stands for Venus, for the goddess of beauty.
I got inspired by high fashion.
I would go to this salon in a minute.
- I think she's quite beautiful.
- Thank you.
I think she does a little crossover, 'cause I see she also has some makeup tools on the end of her fingers.
- Oh, yeah.
- Very well done, George.
Thanks.
There's some very elegant line work that divides up the planes either for access panels or just for the sake of making it pretty.
It's a beautiful piece.
That is one of the strangest and most bizarre chest shapes I've ever seen.
Using those planes to create something that suggests female, that's the high point for me.
The form ideas are near perfection.
Thanks, man.
George, thank you very much.
If you'd please step back.
Thank you.
Thank you, guys.
All right, guys, the judges have heard what you have to say.
If you'd please head back to the makeup room while they deliberate.
- Thank you, guys.
- Thank you.
All right, judges, let's talk about tonight's looks.
Why don't we start with Tyler? Tyler did an excellent job with the colors and the shapes conveying a piece of medical equipment.
It feels very much like a logical progression from conventional robotic attempts that we're working with now into the future where it actually works and walks around like a person, and I think that's a really intelligent way to have approached this.
Yeah, and I liked the way that he had the human facial piece over the top so the patient would have something to refer to.
All right, let's move on to Rashaad.
This is awesome.
I couldn't believe all the detail.
You could put that thing in a movie right now.
There are some really gorgeous design choices, and as a character, all those layers of paint gives us a sense of history.
It's an impressive amount of work.
All right, let's move on to George.
George's is very well done.
For me, this was an exercise in form.
Even though he had the utility in the hand, our focus was on the head and the chest, and it ended up being beautiful.
I like that he used different techniques for the metal process.
There's silver and gold bronzes.
There's hammered, there's smooth, and he made them all go together.
What did you think of the name V-3000? Ah, he named it after me, of course.
All right, let's move on to Niko.
It felt disproportionate.
It looked like an old boxing helmet on top of a face that made no sense to me.
It's so clunky, particularly the proportion of the head and the proportion of the legs and pelvis.
But I loved the chest and the detail-- those little wires that were embedded in the design.
I think it was very successful.
Do I think it's as successful as the other makeups this week? I-- I don't.
I like this robot.
I don't know.
You guys are bein' really hard on him.
You know what was a cool detail? He made animated hydraulic actuators.
That was the one element that really did say construction equipment.
All right, let's move on to Daran.
So disappointing.
He decides to just focus on the head, throw, like, a sheet of foam over the body, and even the head wasn't stellar.
It's convoluted.
It's huge.
It's massive.
It makes no sense.
Even when he was defending it, if you want to call it that, he kind of just kept repeating a simple sentence-- "I don't do robots.
" Maybe he's not interested in doing anything other than what he feels comfortable doing.
That makes you very unemployable.
Yeah, exactly.
All right, judges.
Have you made your decisions? - Yeah, we have.
- We have.
Okay.
Let's bring 'em back out.
Glenn, tell us about tonight's top looks.
Tyler, there were such cool and clever solutions in your design that it was really hard to believe that this is the first time you've tackled this level of fabrication.
Rashaad, your robotic firefighter really felt like a hero, and we loved the decision to place that crest around his neck.
And, George, your robot's flowing lines and gold paint job really made her quite elegant.
All right, Glenn, who is the winner of this challenge? The winner of tonight's challenge is Glenn, who is the winner of this challenge? The winner of tonight's challenge is Rashaad.
Your choices were all so spot on this week.
This is the perfect time to raise your game.
Thank you guys so much.
Finally got a W.
I can join the winners' circle.
And gettin' a win now definitely gives me that extra push and lets me know that I do have what it takes.
- Rashaad, congratulations.
- Thank you.
You, Tyler, and George can head back to the makeup room.
Thank you, guys.
Glenn, tell us about tonight's bottom looks.
Actually, there was only one bottom look for us this week.
Daran.
It was really obvious that you were out of your element, and you were a bit resigned because, as you put it, you don't do robots.
That sentiment really worked against you this week.
That means Niko, you are safe and can head back to the makeup room.
Thank you, guys.
All right, brother.
It's been fun.
Daran, it is obvious that you are truly a huge talent.
You've shown us some beautiful and unique designs.
We all look forward very much to seeing what you do next.
I appreciate it.
Daran, I'm so sorry, but you have been eliminated.
It's really been great having you here with us, but please head back to the makeup room and pack up your kit.
- Thank you, guys.
- Good luck, Daran.
I'm a little bit sad I didn't make it to the end.
I was right there.
I definitely wanted to go on and win this competition.
What do you think, boys? What do you think? - Don't do that.
- Don't do that, bro.
- It's you, Daran? - Yeah.
- What? - Aw, dude.
Ah, brother.
This competition is no joke, and I'm truly amazed at the stuff I came up with in the amount of time I did.
- Whoo! - Fierce hug.
Fierce hug.
Bein' here was a blast, and if this is feelin' like a loser, then I'm very confused 'cause I feel like a winner.
I'll always be a makeup artist.
I'm definitely gonna design more.
I've got a lot of ideas.
This is not the end for me, of course.
