Recalling the prosthetics for the part, Kenny Myers – who designed Star Trek Vs special make-up effects – stated, "Jim Cale made a brow piece to cover Holman's eyebrows, and I made him a set of really stunted teeth that almost looked like they'd been gnawed down to the gum, which made him look really pathetic. I designed the character but it was [makeup artists] Wes and Jeff Dawn who applied the make-up on the set each day." (The Making of the Trek Films, 3rd ed., p. 87)
