yeah those are his generic $50. dollar gloves. They look like this today.<a href=\"http://www.topshelfcollections.com/g33.htm\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.topshelfcollections.com/g33.htm</a>not a huge change, but some change. His gloves were the best deal on eBay for a long time if you wanted a cheap costume glove and weren't picky about accuracy.

Long story. I got divorced and had to move suddenly. When I was able to start setting up an art studio again I focused more on masks then on metal working. Whole different set of tools, supplies, and way of doing things.Chris at TSC offered to finish up the last few orders I had that I wasn't able to finish. All the armatures were done, but they all still needed blades and assembly. Chris is an awesome guy and that's one of the reasons I really support his glove making and gave him my templates.Though there have been a couple other glovemakers who've popped up since then who are looking pretty good. Most people will never understand how hard these are to make, look nice, and function well. They're easy to make. Not easy to make well. Plus most people consider glove building as 'grunt work' and no matter how nice a glove you make you're always considered, 'just a glovemaker.' and it's a real shame. Because a really nice well made glove is most definetely a true work of art.Rayne00's made some very interesting ones I've noticed.

heres a nice shot of a few of my gloves.I have nine now all together and another numero uno on its way from Chris at top shelf and a pert 2 from Ken<img src=\"http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h232/daznicmusic/DSCN0772.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />The part one (top left )is a top shelf and the rest are from Andy the Nightmare maker.I dont have a favourite glove maker overall, my personel thought from experience of owning over 20 gloves over time is topshelfs gloves are very comfortable and great price for the work that chris puts into them, His part one numero uno is one of my favs. The nightmare makers Andy's gloves are so screen accurate and look amazing displayed in the collection. Hes a top bloke and works real hard making his gloves as well as running the Robert Englund forum I'm looking forward to owning Anders vs glove very soon on a trade and despite not actually ever owning one of his gloves they look fantastic and I know how hard he works on them.But The person I'm most impressed with is Ken at all things evil.Its only been a couple of years Ken has been making gloves for sale and his first few gloves had there problems in the respect of templates and especialy the blades but in a very short space of time His gloves have become so accurate with so much care to detail in the coloring of the gloves and weathering techniques he use's.I cant wait to get a glove from him , He's got great ideas and challenges himself with projects like his power glove and spoon glove , making every one of them as screen accurate as possible.Sorry for those makers Ive missed out, I dont know enough about your work to comment but theres some great stuff out the especialy the original designs from Rayenoo (hope I got the name right <img src=\"http://forums.NIGHTOWLpro.com/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsup.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":thumbsup:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"thumbsup.gif\" /> )
