Splatter Fx/ Midnight Studios Mask Quality? - sirbrad - 03-12-2012
I got one so far and they are great, and great hairing. Quick shipping too about 4 weeks. I requested thinner pulls and they were perfect. Customer service is OK, although I kept calling and the girl/wife (Brianne) could never take my order as she was "out of the office" and was supposed to call me back twice and never did. So it got kind of annoying. But I paid through paypal and that was better although like $20 more. But the mask was certainly worth it. Will post pics of it in the future with my costume/life-sized. Definitely great quality and paint ups!

For me Kyle\'s work is hit or miss honestly.
I have some pieces in my collection that are fantastic, others come in with piss-poor finishing, and these were $225-300 pieces we\'re talkng here.
Just a word of caution, it can and will happen...

This doesn\'t have anything to do with his work, necessarily, but after I snapped those photos, I asked him if he sculpted all of his masks himself. I suppose he assumed I was a typical haunt owner and wouldn\'t know the difference, but he told me "yea, I sculpted everything you see here" while pointing at various masks.
I admit, I was kind of fishing for that answer, because I quickly shot back with "really? because I\'m pretty sure that Jon Fuller sculpted a lot of these pieces". He was shocked to hear I knew what I was talking about. I then went on to tell him I was apart of the forums and knew a lot about the indie mask world.
He tried to retract his statement and say "well, I meant I bought the mold and make them now...." blah blah. Kinda urked me a bit. Of course this was years ago, so it doesn\'t have much to do with anything now. But just shows something about his character I guess. Taking credit for work that isn\'t "technically" his.

Thanks for all the info guys, and thanks for taking time to post those pics puckface. I might order a couple of things from them. I\'m kind of torn between that and a more expencive piece from another company.

Not suprising. I have to clue why some people just don\'t figure that eventually there are going to be folks who cross your table that know whats what...
Shame really.
