I use the neca chevrons as a template. They seems to line up with all my other screen used pictures/behind the scenes, etc. as far as size and length goes. It looks larger in the picture due to the angle of the screen grab. He's leaning the top of the mask toward you and I am taking the picture from the bottom up angle. Kind of a perspective thing. I'll look at it closer. It still has some tinkering left so I can fix it easily. Honestly the remake mask in my opinion is one of the hardest masks to master. I just keep looking at it and all its various stages with awe. I never really do that with any other movie mask. The remake is truely a beast of a mask to do. It is really, really hard to have the weathering look 100% authentic close up in person while keeping it even in the same ball park as the weathering on a movie mask. My mask pictured has over 20 layers to it to give it that look. Kind of time consuming. If you try to just paint what you see it always comes out fake looking (at least in my experience). The fx guys for the movie did a GREAT job in my opinion. It never looked painted.<!--QuoteEnd</div><!--QuoteEEndI think your right the angle is creating sort of an illusion on the chevron. I took a look side by side with some other screen grabs and your Hockey Mask and they line up. So I guess it's official your remake is PERFECT! The chipping around the eye area is amazing. Keep up the good work!
