This week Robin McLeavy, who plays Eva on AMC's Hell on Wheels, dishes on the challenges of putting on her character's face tattoo and why she agreed to play a working girl on the show.
Q: What's the makeup process like for that tattoo?
A: It was quite tortuous at the beginning, because it was a three-phase process initially. We started out with a transfer, which would get messed up -- so when I had it I wouldn't want to speak to anybody on set so as not to ruin that tattoo! Everyone thought I was being snobby because I couldn't talk to anybody! It was not a good start. By the second week we had a stencil, that we would do one piece at a time. And then by the third week we just had a proper face cut, kind of like a Hannibal Lecter mask so we could just spray through the stencil and it happened in a minute.
