Jgth Life-sized Costume - sirbrad - 03-13-2009
Thanks Wicked and Kreator. Yeah I always try to explain things as to avoid tons of questions via pm's. This was a lot of fun and not as high on the frustration scale as the part 7, but the second hardest so far. I really need a better camera, or actually better lighting would be great. I love making these they are so realistic looking in person, and HUGE. I use a muscle costume underneath as a base then add some bags and shirts in other areas. But like I said the shirt was made to fit me not 6'5" 260 lbs lol. Good luck on your modifications Wicked I am sure it will be great. I added my own touches to show more flesh and blood, and some rotting just beginning. I also love the hair on the mask and how it is embedded in the strap lines.

I really like what I am seeing so far. Especially the hands. Whatever gloves you used, they're working great.

That's good stuff right there! I love all the exposed skin parts, and the undermask looks totally gruesome. The eye works pretty good, especially with the Hockey Mask on. Will be great when it's nastied up a bit more and sunken in a bit.I just received an order of half-round glass eyes from VanDyke Taxidermy and they're beautiful. Installed a set in my XDFX Bastard Son and DMC Freddy Part 5. What a difference it makes!So do you just have one mannequin you work with, or do you have one for each of your main suits? That would be awesome to see a small legion of Jasons together. <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\"

Yeah the eye was a last minute idea, and it works great as is with the Hockey Mask. But yeah I am making a really nasty one for without the Hockey Mask as well, and a decayed and bloody eye socket on the other side. With the Hockey Mask on it is tough to see though due to shadows. I only have one mannequin unfortunately, and it sucks taking them down and putting new ones up. But it is fun. Someday I want a big house so I can keep them up, and make permanent display pieces even more weathered since I don't have to worry about wearing them. That eye looking at me still freaks me out. I can't believe I actually finished it on Friday the 13th! I did not even realize that.Yeah I put a lot of blood, sweat, and tears into this, mostly blood as you can see. <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":biggrin:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"biggrin.gif\" /> The real pain is all the fraying of every little rip and waiting for the paint coats to dry and then adding more paints etc. The hands turned out great, and like I said they were my old zombie hands that you can see in my first part 7 awhile back. There were grey and black mostly. I also painted the nails with a yellow paint (antique gold) and then a watered down black. The yellow came though nicely to give a really rotted/decaying look. I wish my camera and lighting could show all the intricate details, but it shows the big picture well. You can't appreciate it fully unless you see it in person. Here are some more pics with some sun coming in. I hope I can find a way to display my machete in his hands, but it it too heavy of course. Will have to take costume pics with it.I love how the undermask is so big, even on a bulked up 260 lb frame it's still big! Which makes the Hockey Mask look more embedded and nasty. Love it. The eye is coming off some and looks like a natural lazy eye now lol. Awesome. Next up should be Jason Lives. Here are some more pics with some sun coming in and darker. I will be adding finishing touches and weathering soon, then working on the eye sockets and eye. I like how the eye looks as though it is wide open and very intense, so I will not be adding an eyelid most likely.<a href=\"http://img9.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mar13168.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/6510/mar13168.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /></a><a href=\"http://img3.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mar13169.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/4363/mar13169.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /></a><a href=\"http://img26.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mar13171.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/3891/mar13171.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /></a><a href=\"http://img19.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mar13172.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/8962/mar13172.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /></a><a href=\"http://img13.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mar13173.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/3372/mar13173.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /></a><a href=\"http://img10.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mar13174.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/7964/mar13174.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /></a><a href=\"http://img5.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mar13175.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/6577/mar13175.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /></a>

You mean the hands you made out of those skeleton gloves?
