Looks like a muppet puppet? Miss Piggy?

So does this (From ST: V):

So, what's your point?

Repeating what I said in the other thread.

They need to work on the skin texturing so her face doesn't look so artificial.

And then add in some shading to thin out her face, because the prosthetics along side her natural head shape makes her head way too fat for her body.

Honestly kind of surprised the guys let her on screen with those problems given if anyone put forward a makeup that on Face//Off they would have sent them home..

I have to confess, that when I first saw this pic, Miss Piggy was my first association too. I just didn't want to say it, as it seemed mean. Then again, we're not talking about anyone's real appearance here, but the quality of the make up work. The whole thing just looks highly unnatural. Maybe it looks better in the actual show, they have a weird habit of over aggressively retouching these publicity photos to the point they look really plasticy. I remember that Isaac's face looked really weird in one pic too.

To add to the Miss Piggy analogy, i do hope we get a a scene of L'rell yelling 'HI-YA' and karate chopping Ash.

I do think it's the photography/lighting, L'rell looked fine in the second trailer.

That is one tiny picture.

 

[Terok Nor]

That is one ugly motherfucker.

Zooming in and examining, I think one reason she looks odd is because of how the decided to go lighter on the makeup.

Essentially, we know Cheiffo has been asking them to put less makeup on her - probably in part for less time in the chair, partly to help with performance (she apparently had issues with drooling due to the prosthetic lips last season). It looks to me as if she might be completely unencumbered around the mouth - that that's just her natural lips with some makeup added on. However, they are still putting significant latex over her cheekbones and chin, which are already pretty big and angular for a woman, which results in her mouth seeming sunken in and small.

From Klingorc to Rocky Dennis. What a step up...

Who are you?

 

[Terok Nor]

No

Sorry. I didn't know you had the hots for her.

 

[Attentiveluke]

Who are you?

A man who doesn’t believe the lies...

They’re not lies.

The only lies here are the ones you’re telling yourself.

She looks fine. The male equivalent of Miss Piggy wouldn't have been posted if she were a man. And everyone here knows it.

That having been said, Miss Piggy looks good dressed up as a Disco Klingon.

 

[Refuge]

I don't care what she looks like, it still annoys me she has all that power.

 

[WarpFactorZ]

I don't get the Miss Piggy comparisons (nor the other offensive ones some posters have spewed). She looks like a TMP/TNG Klingon women to me. Isn't this what everyone wanted last season?
