Well this Dougie Jones was tickled raw to have you carry my name for a minute, Kyle. Been a big fan of yours for decades. 💙🙌🏻💙

I've been thinking about him and how much of his life was spent in a makeup chair getting prosthetics glued onto his face.

NY Times profile

As lovely as the costume was, it was a bear to wear. For three hours a day, Mr. Jones sat while Mr. Hill and three other artists put the thing on: the foam latex suit and gloves, the fiberglass helmet with eyes he couldn’t see out of, the sharp fangs, the remote-control gizmos in his spine. The suit itself was so form-fitting that Mr. Jones had to use K-Y Jelly to squeeze inside; when wet, which it nearly always was, it soaked up pounds of water like a sponge. “He never complained once,” Mr. Hill said.
The cast and crew got a sense of what Mr. Jones endured every day when a professional dancer was brought in as a body double for a particularly challenging dance sequence. “He got into the suit, did one pirouette, and then proceeded to projectile vomit,” Mr. del Toro remembered.
