I looked down on his desk and there was a human nose on it. A chopped off human nose. Of course I realized that it had to be fake but it was the most realistic looking prosthetic nose that I had ever seen. I asked the editor where he'd gotten it and he told me that Tom Savini had given it to him. Then he told me a story about how Savini was trying to stay awake to meet deadlines for a movie so he got into the shower and turned on the water and slapped some kind of clay on the wall of the shower so that he could sculpt while the water woke him up. The nose was sculpted during that moment and he made a cast of it but for some reason didn't like the results and gave it to the editor.<br /><br />He had to have been a crazy perfectionist at that time because--as I'd already said--it looked real to me!<br />James Robert Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17281049641681225389noreply@blogger.com
