SPOILER ALERT: Do not read unless you’ve seen the first nine episodes of “House of the Dragon” on HBO. Well before he died in Episode 8 of “House of the Dragon,” Paddy…

Well before he died in Episode 8 of “House of the Dragon,” Paddy Considine’s King Viserys Targaryen was falling apart. Literally — his body and face were crumbling.

.” Plus, he won an Emmy this year for his making Vecna on “Stranger Things.” He’s also worked on “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness,” “Chernobyl,” “The Witcher” and more.“We researched various flesh-eating disorders,” Gower says. “Necrosis, leprosy, all kinds of horrible references. Lots of interesting shapes, colors and ulcers. They could give us a good indication for textures, colors, glosses, how dry things would be. It’s very grounded in the real world of horrible diseases.

“For one or two scenes, we had a body double who was very slender and had a very pronounced bone structure,” he said. “We shot some of the scenes with sores on his back, necrosis on his collarbone and shoulders. Then we shot the same scene with Paddy, and VFX were able to manipulate Paddy’s face onto the double’s body.”

The first time we see Viserys in Episode 8, a golden half-mask hides the destroyed parts of his face. During a tense dinner, he removes the mask so his family can see him as he truly is — a decrepit king with not much time left to live. A combination of practical and visual effects helped create open cavities in his eye socket, cheek and jaw.

Gower’s next HBO project, however, is intended to horrify audiences. He’s making the terrifying, zombie-like clickers from “,” HBO’s upcoming adaptation of the post-apocalyptic video game series. In “The Last of Us,” an airborne fungus has ravaged society, and those who are infected begin to sprout mushroom-like growths from their bodies. The fungus takes over victims’ nervous systems, rips through their eyes, and they’re forced to use echolocation to feast on human flesh.
