Penny (Grace Gummer)
Lucky for Grace Gummer — who is Meryl Streep’s daughter, FYI — she
didn’t have to sit through hours of temporary tattoo application to
bring her “Lizard Girl” to life. Instead, a prosthetic was used to
recreate the look that her father gave her as a punishment for her
disobedience.
“The tattoos were done by AFX Studio, which is
one of two companies that do the effects for the show,” Mekash said.
“All of the tattoos were custom fit to her face through a process of
casting. There was a full-face prosthetic and a full-neck prosthetic,
[and] it’s like a water transfer process, but it has to be glued
underneath to stay on all day. The pieces are put on with water
transfer, like a Bazooka Joe. Then there’s sealer that goes over, and
powder, a little bit of airbrushing done around her mouth, and some
beauty makeup done on her eyes.”
Pepper (Naomi Grossman)
Everyone’s favorite microcephalic, Pepper, also had some facial
prosthetics to create her signature “pinhead” look. However, the “AHS”
crew was not able to recreate their exact work from her first appearance
in the series.
