Wickedbeards New Blood Costume!

[🪦 wickedbeard ●]

Much appreciated guys.I always strive to do the best I can on these suits, and the part 8 I am doing next will be no different, but I think It's going to be hard to top this one.If anyone is a whiz with photoshop, feel free to add some cool backrounds.I do not have a clue how to do it even if I had the software.I would have loved to do the pics in the forest, but I just did not have the time to do all that.

Incredible. Love how the gloves turned out. You go make a fan movie with this one cause I wanna see this sucker in action.

I would love to do that, but sadly, I do not have the knowledge.If any of you guys live in the cincinnati area, and no how to film one, give me a PM.Maybe we can turn out a cool little movie.

Nice! I also prefer the long chain look. I also could not believe I made mine out of just stuff around the house, and I sewed in zombie parts. I decided to with a dark navy blue as I thought it brought the weathering better. I also want the rubies parts and need a spine/ribs vest. Can't wait until Justin makes them soon, but until then I may have to dabble with some latex. I just use the zombie hands I got from Walmart that I painted up without using the gloves. But I like the idea of using the hands with gloves, and actually thought about it before but did not want to cover the hands up to show the details. I like the forearm look though, what did you use for those?

Also how much does that Hockey Mask run? I would like to own one like it. Is it adjustable? Is that a real chain or the plastic one? Do you have any pics of the back spine? I am still looking for a good spine/ribs vest, as Chris no longer makes them.

The chain is real, and heavy.I said before.I like realism.lol, the Hockey Mask is a frightstuff blank that I painted up.what I did for the straps is I used the leather ones Ken gave me with the mask, but I put 2 small strips of elastic under it in the rear of the mask, so it will fit any undermask(you can kinda see how I did it in the pic below).The spine is from a rubies costume .I just ripped out all the latex parts and made them my own.the screen used clothing was an olive green so that is what I went with.I actually modeled this suit off the large jason figure.I like the gloves and it makes sense since he was wearing them in part 6.I hate latex hands with a passion.The forearms are simply old pieces of latex glued to a long sleeve shirt.simple yet effective.You gotta think, all screen used stuff generally looks like crap up close.It is how it looks in front of the camera and from a distance that counts.even in public, most people do not study your costume, so the hidden parts are never noticed, but you still wanna be close to the screen look.I am going to upgrade my mask one day, but really the new line mask works fine, and I only buy masks that I can wear.Having a really expensive mask makes no sense if all you can ever do is look at it.lolHere is a shot of the spine.<img src=\"http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v465/wickedbeard/part%207/Picture615.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />

Cool. So you used fabric glue? I was going to do that at first with my zombie parts, but I sewed them in instead and it was a bitch. Especially inside the sleeves. I always wanted to get that Rubies costume for the parts, but did not trust the stock photos. Does it come with the latex forearms, or did you use the chest pieces or extra parts to make them? Being you would not need them since you have a chest piece, as do I. I might do a remake of my outfit soon, after I finish up my part 6 and 8. Just ordered a maggot-head hood from Justin, can't wait. That is why I went with a plastic chain, being I had to wear it up to 7 hours lol. But a smaller more screen accurate one would not be as heavy. Did you paint it up or is that its natural color? Yeah no matter how my costume gets I am never satisfied, I am a perfectionist. Screen accurate does not always play well in real life, especially you have to wear a costume all day and night, as opposed to quick little takes over several days.
