WARNING: If you don't want to know what happened in this episode, don't read this photo recap!
Monster time! Sea monsters, that is - and they'll have to perform UNDERWATER. That's the scary part.

Exhibit A: Mel and Derek's "oh $&^*" faces
392928
Jordan gets into character, trying to see the monster from the monster's perspective.
392932
Mel has a clear vision - it's just not landing the way she sees it yet.
392934
Walter focuses on the aquadynamics of his monster.
392937
As Mel reaches the final stages of her paint job, she realizes she applied the colors in the wrong order, meaning her metallics won't pop. Curses!
392938
Derek can't get his chest appliance to lie flat (read: keep water from seeping in). Fortunately, he sculpted extra blender pieces for just such a contingency.
392939
Mel couldn't save her paint job. That, and her choice to use a sea horse as inspiration, dropped her to bottom looks.
392940
Walter and Matt had a spirited competition. Who will be the victor of this battle?
392941
Friend vs. Friend on this battle.
392942
Walter is super proud of his paint job, and the judges appreciate the way he used fins in the anatomy.
392943
Matt won the water challenge on his season, and he wins this battle - but not without a hearty fight from Walter!
392944
Jordan used the angler fish as a model, and produced a truly frightening sea monster. This makeup brings him his first win!
392945
Damien was ambitious, and wasn't able to get everything finished. His paint AND appliances come off in the water.
392946
The judges love the way the tendrils and fins on Derek's makeup flow in unison.

This is not an elimination week, so no one's going home - but that doesn't mean that Mel and Damien feel "safe"!
