In an article in Entertainment Weekly about the make-up used for this movie, R.G. Armstrong said his face was covered with a gelatinous material called alginate, which is similar to the stuff dentists use for impressions of teeth, to make a life mask for Pruneface. Then the make-up artists sculpted Pruneface's wrinkled mug over the life mask to form a second mold, from which foam-latex facial parts, also known as appliances, were cast. The appliances were attached to Armstrong's face in several sections, and the make-up session could take up to three hours. When asked what he'd do when the make-up artists would put on his Pruneface make-up, Armstrong said, "I'd go to sleep."
