I am a makeup effects artist for New York based I.A.T.S.E local 798 Makeup and Hair, which is the Union for the east coast. I Mentor and Assist under Special Makeup effects GURU Bill Johnson ( [link] ).
Bill has given me everything and has brought me in to work on such films as the new Ben 10 Alien Swarm, Halloween 2; and hired me to assist with specialty bodies for Zombieland, Book of Eli, and more. I owe a lot to people like Bill, Ben Armstrong and Billy Mecina, and Brian luallen. These people have opened the doors to places i never though i could get to. With out them and my Very supportive and understanding parents i would not have anything.

I run Penny Dreadful Productions based out of Atlanta as a fun way to kill time inbetween work. check it out at [link]
Thanks so much for checking out my stuff.

My name is Michaela Thunberg and I'm from Sweden. I'm organizing a steampunk LARP and I wonder if you'd let me borrow one or two pictures you have put up on DeviantArt for inspiration for our members and workshops. The pictures will be shown on our website which is right now under construction. [link]
Of course we will link to you website and deviantart page and put a copyright-logo with you name on it (either under the picture or on it).

Hope to hear from you soon!
