Stuart Bray has been playing with monsters and makeup since he was old enough to grab a paintbrush and never grew up.

He has racked up credits working on shows such as Game of Thrones, Dr Who and BBC SAS Rogue Heroes. Movies include Saving Private Ryan, Gladiator, Shaun of the Dead and The Marvels.

He produces the podcast Battles With Bits of Rubber with fellow FX artist and author Todd Debreceni and often teaches at makeup schools and colleges in between shows.
