Ep 9. Mummy Mayhem

In Face Off season 4 episode 9, titled "Mummy Mayhem," the remaining contestants are tasked with creating their own version of a mummy character inspired by the Egyptian lore. The judges, including guest judge Kevin Grevioux, who played Raze in the Underworld film series, are looking for innovative twists on the classic mummy design.

The contestants have to work with various materials, including fabric, clay, and prosthetics, to create their mummy characters. They have to consider factors such as texture, color, and the overall look of their mummy. Some contestants choose to focus on the bandages, while others concentrate on making their mummies look more decayed and grotesque.

As the artists work on their mummies, they face a few challenges. One of the main problems is the time constraint. They only have a limited amount of time to work on their creations, and some struggle to get everything done in time. In addition, some of the materials are difficult to work with, causing frustration for a few of the contestants.

Despite the challenges, the artists manage to come up with some impressive mummies. Some of the highlights include a mummy with a scorpion tail and another with a cobra hood. One artist even incorporates real beetles into their mummy design.

Once the mummies are completed, the judges examine each one closely. They look at the overall look of each mummy, as well as the attention to detail and creativity. They also listen to the artists explain their thought processes and the inspiration behind their designs.

At the end of the episode, one artist is named the winner, while another is sent home. The judges explain their reasoning for their decision, and the remaining contestants move on to the next challenge.

Overall, "Mummy Mayhem" is an exciting episode of Face Off that showcases the artists' creativity and skill. The challenge of creating a new take on the classic mummy design is a fun one, and the contestants rise to the occasion with some impressive designs. Fans of the show will definitely enjoy this episode and the unique mummies that the artists come up with.
