As reported about a week ago, The International Make-Up Artist Trade Show was held at the Pasadena Convention Center in Los Angeles – June 21-22, 2008. Make-Up Artist Magazine and Stan Winston Studios assembled a large museum display of Stan Winston creations in tribute to the late Academy Award-winning special effects and make-up artist. Brandon Alinger of The Prop Store of London attended and sent me photos to share with OPB readers:
