TL9 is more like guesswork, but is TL8's +2 really all we get for the new toys that the motion picture SFX and make-up artists use compared to TL5? Basically, a TL5 make-up artist can spend 2 hours instead of the normal 30 minutes, and gain +2 to skill. Which is exactly as good as the Advanced Disguise Kit (+2 to skill, default use time 2-6 hours, plus a day to prepare the disguise).
