THE ARTISAN SUMMER 2023 • 55 she went undercover throughout the show, we decided the platinum blonde wig was best. Chava (make-up) Chava, played by Jennifer Jason Leigh, is Jonah's long-lost great-aunt. She's been secretly hunting Nazis by herself for years and joins Jonah and the Hunters on their quest in Argentina. Mascara and lipstick are her idea of make-up. She doesn't think it's important. The design was a realistic "no make-up" look with sheer foundations, sheer peach blush, and lips. Her Holocaust survivor tattoo was made by Tinsley Transfers. THE HUNTED Eva (make-up) Lena Olin plays an older Eva Braun. Gitte executed the look of simple, refined beauty. Armani Luminous foundations gave her skin the glow of someone living in a warm climate. Neutral shadows, smudged liner, and natural look lashes defined her eyes. Full strong brows added a slight hardness. Corrective shading and highlighting are used where necessary. Hitler (make-up) In the storyline, 92-year-old Hitler, played by Udo Kier, has been hiding in Argentina all these years. Key make-up artist Chloe Sens worked on a limited budget and stock pieces to create this make-up. I ordered custom brows and mustaches for his character from Zoe Hay. Chloe Sens: I started by finding photos of Udo and Hitler. Lawrence Mercado did a digital rendering overlaying the photos, so I had an idea of the differences between their facial structures. Udo has piercing blue eyes, as did Hitler. There is a misconception that they are brown. I imagined heavy under- eye bags, broken capillaries, redness from years of drinking, and very tanned skin as he lived in Argentina. I met with Christian Tinsley and picked molds that could run as transfers, silicone, or both. A high percentage of deadened silicone was our best option for movement. Lawrence and I did a test with Udo and landed on seven pieces of prosthetic make-up. The skin was prepped with Khiels, PPI Dry, and PPI Top Guard. I stacked a small set of Pros-Aide transfer eye bags under the built-in eye bags in the cheeks. We applied the first set of eye bags, then the upper eyelids and crow's feet. Next, the silicone cheeks/ eye bags were overlapped onto the first set of Pros-Aide eye bags, the forehead was applied, and all pieces were locked in. Multiple layers of Bluebird old-age stipple were applied to the neck, upper lip, chin, jowls, and hands while Lawrence stretched the skin. We used Skin Illustrator colors to spatter and mottle his face, neck, and hands to hand-paint details. We used a red pencil on his water line. Finally, custom lace eyebrows and a mustache were applied. This make-up was done here in Los Angeles and Prague. Thank you, Aneta Janickova for assisting me in Prague. A Hitler stunt double wore the same appliances created in the Pros- Aide transfer form. Barney Burman, Sue Laprelle, Christopher Osorio (also helped on Udo), and Heather Galipo helped on the double. Hitler (hair) We thinned Udo Kier's hair for Adolf Hitler and provided a high- top fade. We aimed to give him a late 80-year-old haircut that tailors to Hitler in his prime. We used clippers, shears, and various hair products. • EVA BRAUN (Lena Olin) Artisans Chloe Sens and Lawrence Mercado with actor Udo Kier with added mustache and eyebrows.
