Dp Deluxe Myers - Devilstar2k2 - 09-03-2008
Hey, guys... I had a hard time finding a real life pic of this mask before I ordered it. I just thought I'd toss one up in case anyone was wondering if the $50 is worth it. I was pretty worried that I wasted the cash, but I think its worth it until I get something better. All I did to this was fluff up the hair and add a bit more paint to the eye brows.<img src=\"http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v105/xdm41/dpdeluxemyers.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />EDIT-Heres what it looks like without the hair eyebrows:<img src=\"http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v105/xdm41/014-1.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />EDIT2-Still having a bit of trouble getting it to look right, but I think I'm almost there. I screened the eyes to darken the look up a bit, and refit it with some 1/2" foam. I also trimmed a 1/2" from the neckline. I guess all thats left to do is some weathering, then thats pretty much all that can be done.<img src=\"http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v105/xdm41/020.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />

It looks good. The DP Myers masks at my local Halloween shop look different this year. Are they changing them on a yearly basis now?

That looks like a pretty big mask, what is the size ?

It is pretty big... Not sure what the size is, but my head is 23 inches, and I'm gonna need to add 1/2 inch of padding to the back/top to make it fit right.

wow i'm very impressed and love the hair on it . that's gotta be the 1st myers i've seen with really good hair that's not hand made . maybe some slight weathering to the mask could bring it to life a bit instead of being so bright white but it's up to you on that . mike,

Its not as stark white as it looks... It does have some light brownish/pinkish spray on it. I would like to dirty it up a bit though. If I brush some black chalk pastel on it, what could I use to seal it? I've never painted latex before.Yeah, I like the hair too. It was totally matted down when I opened it. It has bee's wax on it, or something. Makes it stay the way the you want it though.

Its been bugging me, so I looked at the inside of the mask and there are molded eyebrows underneath the hair ones. I took a green kitchen scratchy to them, and the adhesive came off with no problem. Didn't even mess up the paint.<img src=\"http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v105/xdm41/014-1.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />

You guys sick of seeing my cheapo mask yet? lol... I added another pic with screened eyes to the top post. Just refresh to see it. Next pic with be with it weathered and in costume. With the few simple mods that were done to it, I think it came a long way from this:<img src=\"http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v105/xdm41/11a2_1.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />
