| Producer Michael Prescott | Lep makeup artist Gabe Bartalos (right) | With the overhead lights off and the door half-closed, the Leprechaun makeup room has an eerie look. A stunt mask sits on a stand next to the mirror. Warwick Davis wears 7-piece prosthetic makeup that's glued to his face in a 3-hour process, but the Leprechaun stunt doubles wear a slip-on mask that can be removed quickly in case of an accident. |

| Before there can be a Leprechaun, there has to be Leprechaun makeup. Partial body casting is necessary before the custom-fitted prosthetic makeup pieces can be produced. It's a nasty ordeal, but the end result is fantastic. | Leprechaun maintenance. In the first picture, the Lep gets a shoeshine; in the second picture, it looks like fingernail damage is being repaired. The Lep loses a lot of fingernails, but they can be glued back on. | Set construction for the movie's first scene. | ||

| Getting ready to unleash the rainbow. It's not clear what the crew member is holding in the second picture, but it's apparently related to the colored light. | Although it's not too noticeable in the movie, the rainbow doesn't begin until the lid is removed from the pot of gold. | The original concept was to use something similar to this as the key art (posters, etc), so a lot of attention was paid to the rainbow effect. There's also a wonderful reflection in the water. This idea was later rejected as not scary enough, and the Lep in the doorway drawing was adopted instead. | ||

| Dan O'Grady comes home. The scene was originally shot with a white limo, because it would show up well at night and was thought to say "wealth" better than a black one. The scene was reshot later after they decided to use a black limo instead. | No fear of heights here. | Sometimes the homecoming proceeded without the car. | ||
