I didn't like Foxy & Co... too much staged bullshit. No one wants to take a chance on an honest reality show that's just awesome people making monsters and special effects. With Foxy & Co. and Monster Man they had to keep introducing all this crap that was obviously scripted by producers.

Modern American cable TV is such loving garbage and I can't wait for the whole thing to crash. Hillbillies! Ghosts! Amish! Pawnshops! Fishing! TLC? A&E? Sci-Fi (SyFy)? Discovery? I really liked Fox but I didn't have high hopes for them to make something remotely watchable. I'm assuming Face Off is going to start integrating Twitter more in the next season.

I think Cig tanked this one. I actually like Drew's makeup. Cake Boss just killed it. I hope she wins.

Yay Dina! Was always hoping, but to my eyes it could have gone multiple ways (even if Cig's life knight wasn't very well explained, that death knight was a-mah-zing.) I did love how she incorporated the squids, and extra points for that mouth. All three of them did great work, and of course in the final round it's also everything they did prior, etc. This was a really good season. Lots of fun people and minimal bullshit.

Yeah, Dina killed it. Cig tanked bad on his good guy. Drew was really good as well, but I think Dina's body of work this season put her over the top fairly easily.

Maxwell Lord posted:This is legit my favorite reality show now and of all the creative competition ones it has the best judging/editing of said judging. I never have any "wait, THAT wins?" Moments like on PR. Agreed. I'm so sad the season has to be over. There is something abut the cooperation and decency of the contestants and judges that is really uplifting.. nobody badmouthing or with that whole "I'm not here to make friends" quasi-combative bullshit.

YAY DINA!  I was rooting for Cig but his concept just didn't come through in the final pieces. Drew pulled out some great work but Dina totally nailed it. And we only have to wait a few months until the next season starts in January!

I think this was some of the weakest work Cig has done, i was cheering for him but Dina deserved the win.

Dina deserved the win, but all the work was superb. Cig and Drew shouldn't have any trouble getting work after this. Also I love the non-backstabbing-ness of this series. All the best participants want to make cool make-ups and see cool make-ups, so the least petty ones are the ones who do the best.

Been cheering for Dina since the first episode, she rocks. She had one bad week that I can remember, and even it (the reindeer) wasn't god-awful. It was nice seeing previous winners for the teams rather than just another contestant from the season.

Can't argue with that outcome. Dina 100% deserved the win. Cig's death knight was my favorite makeup from the finale by a fairly wide margin, he just totally blew it on the life knight. Rashaad's armor for the death knight was so rad.

Yep, quite pleased with the results. The top three were solid contenders. The winner had a great final makeup and the body of work she had in the season justified the win easily. I went back and looked at the standout looks from this season and I think Dina gave most of them. Dina killed anytime beauty makeup was applicable and delivered solid work every other time. I'm still blow away at how good her severed fish head was when it could have been a low-effort throwaway touch. Also agree that it was great seeing the returners and the excellent cooperation among everyone. No egos, just good ambassadors for their art.

I agree Cigs life knight was bad. Especially compared to his death knight, which was my favorite of the finale. Dina definitely deserved the win. Can't wait for next season.

Dina totally deserved the win, but I hated how she completely lifted the seashell shoulders on her Light Knight from the face mask of her Aphrodite right down the paint scheme. I was really hoping the judges would call her out on that but meh, whatever.

I thought Drew had the most cohesive pair of characters, but Dina's death knight was obviously the best thing on stage. Cig kind of whiffed it by going with a simple human makeup for his life knight.

I like how "Blue is the New Red" became so much more true when Nicole showed up with her long blue hair. I also loved when Sasha got on to stage and gave Dina a big hug and swung her around  .

Good finale. I'm really impressed all the makeups survived that stage fighting, I'm always afraid someone's creation is going to get torn up. Just like everbody else said, Cig's dark knight was baller but is light knight was weak, Drew's design was ok but didn't really stand out, and Cake Boss was way ahead. Even used her Cake Boss skillz in the design! Drew was pretty classy in losing, and he should feel good because all the finale designs were solid. I appreciated that they were helping each other clean out the molds even in the finale. Face Off: the reality show where you come to make friends? Also, nice to see Rashad again. How long until Face Off All Stars?

Cig (concepts & overall), Rashaad (sculpting), and Sasha (painting) should've been unstoppable but it just didn't come together at all. Cig and Dina were the most consistent overall so at least one of them won.

I have zero proof of this but between the team-building and the (usual) extra day to make the drat things, I'm pretty sure the producers go out of their way to ensure that nothing goes wrong with the costumes before they perform. If I had any I'd bet a small bit of money that after Last Looks on every finale the costumes have to go through a "final prep" and "stress test" to ensure that all the makeups are really stuck on there good and ready to perform. Like I don't think they go so far as to rig the probable outcome of the contest (unless they were rigging it beforehand, but I doubt that beyond some broad strokes), but they do make sure that there aren't any hastily glued-on prosthetics or loose-fitting costumes that wouldn't survive a tumble.

I've also noticed that the production staff run the latex molds overnight and remove the for the competitors now rather than having the competitors do all that themselves.

CeeCee posted:This is exactly why Face Off is pretty much the only competition show I watch. Most of them seem like good people you wouldn't mind having a drink with and the ones that don't are usually gone by mid-season. Can't agree more. I hate reality shows and competition shows, but have watched every season of Face/Off. The fact they stopped trying to shoehorn in drama after season 2 or so (and even then it was mild) is a huge draw. I want to watch creative people make cool things, the end. I honestly believe the few instances of drama they DID have they underplayed - like that one girl walking off the show the 2 episodes before the finale, instead of just going out in a highly respectable 4th place; or that one nutter that freaked out and stormed off after making a huge pile of poo poo on the first episode. They didn't even milk that stuff, and I think both of those things were really kind of unplanned hiccups, too. It also helps it feels like it always gets judged on actual merit and not a popularity contest.

Also there was that one guy who was a bit of a douchebag in an early season and they let him come back and redeem himself in a veterans vs newbies season and he turned out to be a nice guy.

On the Creature Workshop the contestants didn't even have to make a mold, it was all done for them. Which is fine, they were working with insane time limits for what they had to do.

It makes sense, because the Creature Shop contestants have to do more general work overall.

I would love it if production made the molds for Face Off. I know they get a lot of drama out of lovely molds locking, but good God. I make molds myself and the seams on some of these cowls makes me so sad.

It was a pretty decent episode, there's a good mix of the young and the middle aged like they do and I always love seeing Laura. I liked seeing a more open Mr. Westmore (though they may have just decided to edit it differently this season) as well. The team thing could end up being interesting, but does that mean all of the challenges will be teams this year or will we see individual challenges? That seems like it might get catty with people feeling their captains are helping their team mates more and such. I'm not a fan of splitting the episodes though and I hope that's not going to continue. I know 99% of people don't give a poo poo at all, but I really wish they'd leave the primates out of this because I know there's going to be some people using the wrong words next episode. Lemurs aren't simians.
