The MUAs try their hand at special effects, creating alien characters for iconic sci-fi series Doctor Who, based around the Doctor鈥檚 recent nemeses Swarm and Azure.

The MUAs enter the world of special effects for 大象传媒鈥檚 iconic sci-fi show Doctor Who. Assisting the show鈥檚 prosthetic designer, Danny Marie Elias, the MUAs must create alien characters based around the Doctor鈥檚 recent nemeses Swarm and Azure.

Danny Marie wants to test the MUAs' prosthetics skills, so after a short demonstration, the MUAs must apply three prosthetic pieces to a model, ensuring it looks vibrant, bold, and intricately detailed. To impress Danny Marie, the prosthetics must have flawless application and perfect blending, creating an authentic-looking alien. The MUA who stands out wins the chance to join Danny Marie on set for a day, whereas those that fail to deliver run the risk of starting the Creative Brief in the red Face Off chairs.

This week鈥檚 Creative Brief is to create a character that is based on the idea of an extreme experiment gone wrong. The MUAs are encouraged to use their imagination and the skills they learnt the day before, as each final look must contain a minimum of two prosthetic pieces.

Then the bottom two MUAs go head-to-head in the Face Off elimination, where they are tasked with replicating a floating pearl eyeliner. The identical twins already have one eye completed that the MUAs must exactly copy, focusing on symmetry, balance, precision and clean application. One MUA packs their kit and leaves the competition.
