Our expert's notes

A General “Bloodbath” McGrath (Ted Levine) paint test bust from Barry Sonnenfeld’s comedy Western Wild Wild West. This piece was created when designing the make-up appliances worn by Levine in the film. Created on a biscuit foam lifecast of Levin’s face, this test bust features foam latex appliances that have been glued down, blended, and painted just as though they would be if applied to the actor. Most of the bust is fully painted and features glued on hair appliances throughout. The latex megaphone fits in the scarred ear appliance by way of a small plastic attachment piece and completes the character’s look. The test bust features minor marks and scratches but remains in good condition. Dimensions: 9” x 20” x 17” (23 cm x 51 cm x 43 cm)
