When he was filming Star Trek: Enterprise, he had the distinct pleasure of having his make-up done by Academy & Emmy Award winner Michael Westmore, who created some of the most iconic make-up ever. Mr. Westmore came out of retirement for 5 weeks, often starting at 4am to work on Tilford's make-up, which included recreating the original concept of the Klingons, the hybrid half-Klingon, half-human, Marab.
