That queue along with the application of the makeup on actual models' faces further emphasizes the uncanny humanity still lingering in the Darkseekers' eyes. Gillis and Woodruff also say that Scott advised them to look at 17th-century wax sculptures for inspiration. The artists explain that they covered the Darkseekers with a silicone membrane, making them appear scrawny to the point of translucence. In the images, one can see the attention that Gillis and Woodruff put into the Darkseekers' decaying teeth, pale veins, and rotting skin. However, the physical sculptures offer additional depth and texture to the beings. Like Scott and Despretz's sketches, the prosthetic Darkseekers appear as walking, bony corpses. In 2012, ADI released a video with Gillis and Woodruff sharing pictures of their designs, and the results are appropriately terrifying.
