Thanks. Yeah it is about how you wear a costume that matters, and how well you are able to present all of the features and mannerisms. That is what brings the character to life. I also have about 30 years experience playing Jason, just never had this high level of costumes. But I made crap costumes come to life all those years lol. Now I got the best of both worlds. I never would have predicted I would making costume at this level. I think the mannequins looks better in person than in pics. But they are only so flexible. I am still looking for the perfect mannequin that has flexible arms and proper range of motion yet is not too skinny and badly posed. That has not happened yet. I hate having to buy clothes for myself that also need to fit the mannequin because that is hard being it is 6'5" and I am 5'9" (6'1" in height increasing boots) So usually they are big on me and slightly small for a bulked mannequin. But I wish I had two sets of clothes one for each. But you can't always find the proper shirt twice. But at least I get to have Jason in my house all year to look at until I can play him on Halloween, or Myers, Freddy, Madman etc. I used natural weathering the past but it does not look as good or as detailed, plus it can draw bugs, stinks, and can stain other stuff. Also the movies use special effects paints and make-ups as well, so natural weathering is kind of pointless and does not look as good. It sounds good in theory but the reality of it is not that good. This was my lightly weathered shirt for the paintball scene, but I also have a costume with heavy weathering for the mud/rain scene. But these colors here represent the look of the paintball scene, and I really nailed that yellowish brown look. Also the flash over embellishes and really brings out the gloss in the colors, you don't see that in regular lighting.But the camera won't pick up most of it, or the little zigzag cuts and frays in the seams. The cobwebs were a quick teaser of another suit I have coming with a lot more of them. <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\"
