Most of you don't have an inside window to the makeup special effects world but at one time there was an extremely talented shop buzzing around town. It was helmed by a gentleman named Steve Johnson who was this artistic genius savant. The studio was XFX. I never had the luck to work there but I always wished to. I did tour there with makeup grandfather Dick Smith. They were working two projects at the time, "Monkeybone", and "Bicentenial Man". The "Bicentennial Man" creations were technological and artistic works of art. I now wish I could go back in time and had the ability to merge 3D printing and 3D scanning with XFX.
