So you have proof he did not say this and just calling the designer a liar just for giggles? I am really curious here. Everyone has went out of their way to not insult Fuller, as ya know they may have to work with him again. So why on earth would a well known FX artiest lie?

That pretty much ends the idea that the Torchbearer is CGI. And the level of Detail there is crazy. Somewhere a cosplayer is looking at this as a personal challenge

Because it must be a conspiracy to ruin Fuller's vision for this new Star Trek.

This is how it comes off. I mean Page is well known, he would have no reason to lie about it and as our poll here shows, the make up is not as hated as some people want it to be. We still have folks upset over TMP changes to Klingons, so eh whatever.

You mean other then CBS ordering him to and him having no choice due to being under contract.
 
maybe they can grow hair but they shave it all off to go with their new Egyptian style.

You know, Egyptians shaved off all their hair....everything...daily.

If I had a Klingin shaped skull, I would never try to shave it. And you know they aren't using Mr. Mott's special laser shaver.

I think they may shave, however with the new idea of anatomy, they may not grow it at all. Or some ethnic groups may not grow it , while others do. I really, do not mind the lack of hair anymore, at first it bugged me a bit, but really they still look klingon and as a man with a shaved head, eh whatever on hair.
 
IF they weren't being totally honest, it wouldn't be lying in a conspiracy to smear fuller, it would be more like stretching the truth to deflect criticism, which is pretty standard PR.
 
I kind of doubt Fuller had anything to do with this particular choice.

It's much more likely CBS is just throwing him under the buss to deflect the blame for the horribleness away from the people currently making the show.

Yes. Yes, this is a completely reasonable hypothesis. Les Moonves, Chairman and CEO of the CBS Corporation, is sooooo embarrassed that the Klingons are bald that he has decided to order a well-regarded make-up designer to blame on the well-regarded prior showrunner. He's terrified that if he doesn't, the Board of Directors will oust him for plummeting stock prices!

:guffaw::guffaw::guffaw::guffaw::guffaw::guffaw::guffaw:

Jesus, dude, the Klingons are bald. It was Fuller's idea and it's really not that big a deal either way. Chill out.
 
Cool design. I like this better than the other STD Klingons so far.

But of course he's blue, just like everything else on this show. :lol:

Everything must be blue! Really, though I kinda dig we are getting a wider range of skin tones. In humans you can actually get a purple like skin tone. Not this color, but it does not look real either.

Actually it kind of destroys the entire Voyager series because of Belanna Torres.

But if you are happy with Stargate Universe, er sorry I mean Star Trek Discovery more power to you. But don't for a moment thing I am going to give CBS and the shows producers a pass.

Your loss. I doubt CBS is going to think 'dear God, a infinitesimal small amount of fans have issues, we should redesign it all to please them'.
