New Costume **updated 11-5-08**

[sirbrad ●]

Not bad, although the costume has some inconsistencies. If your head is rotten and grey looking, there should be no tan skin showing anywhere, wrists, eyes, etc. I would raise the mask up some or use make-up. Make sure the sleeves are long enough or wear some wrist/arm covers painted the same as the under-mask as to not kill the illusion. Also the flesh from the machete should also be rotted looking not like fresh flesh, unless the rest of your body is that, say like in part 4.

You should invest in some perma wet.Modge podge gives a wet look, but it will always make your clothing stiff and paper like, almost like a wrinkled paper bag.I used it once and never again.Perma wet is so much nicer.Liquid latex is really good for wet looks as well.As for the parts that are too blue.Get some gray acrylic, and water it down till it is somewhat thin and take a paper towel, or sponge dip it, and dab the blue areas, then wipe it off, and repeat.When that is done lightly mist the areas with flat black spray.Lightly!!!Just enough to darken the areas a bit.I do agree on the machete slice.as cool as it looks, it really works better if you were doing a human jason as opposed to a out of the grave version.But I gotta say, you did do an awesome job on it.looks like a real gash.I really like the shot of you walking through the woods.The machete itself looks great though.

i like this look very much and aside from what others have pointed out , maybe work on the weathering of the pants at the bottom around the ankles so the cuts don't look so " boxy " if you know what i mean . like it does look like you cut stright up them instead of them looking like they have been ripped up many of times running in the woods catching people . you did a nice job on the shirt too mike,
