makeup, creatures and miniatures, produced several prosthetic ears,
noses and heads for the deal. Over 40 seamstresses were hired to lead the

costumes based on the time. It had to do ten versions of each outfit, and
then 30 more for maneuvers, and other persons to scale double, so all
designs have 40 versions.
