To all who entered our 2019 Character Makeup Contest, thanks for sharing your creativity with us!  Your entries were so amazing it took us a couple extra days to pick a winner, so thank you for your patience!

We were excited by the huge variety of makeups that came in from all around the world, from demons to dwarves, monsters to spirit guides. You showed us your foam makeups, bodypainting, silicone prosthetics, and even build-up techniques.

As always, choosing a Grand Prize winner was a challenge, but we're delighted to announce that 1st place goes to 
Dean Garner for his extraterrestrial entry: Ernie the Alien, "an et inspired makeup with animatronic blinking eyes for The Prosthetics Event in the UK."

With his snaggle-toothed grin, gracefully twisting horns, and plethora of interesting facial orifices, there's something irresistible about Ernie. In addition to the overall impact of the makeup, we were impressed by Garner's incorporation of animatronic eyes, his organic paintwork, and his elegant approach to the hand makeup.

Congratulations Dean on creating a truly memorable character. We hope you enjoy the Grand Prize package below, sponsored by our friends at Skin Illustrator & PPI Premiere Products, Inc.!
