see I find it strange to kiss ass on one board then bad mouth on another. I like a few different people. I like Justins work, I also like Terrys work. I like a few different Hockey Mask makers work. But why bad mouth? If I like Mikes hockey masks that doesn\'t mean I don\'t like Travs hockey masks too, it means I like them both. After a couple years of seeing what people can do, there are a handful of mask and Hockey Mask makers who\'s work I really like. But I don\'t like one above the other. I just like people who make this stuff because they\'re fans of the movies. And you can usually tell pretty quick who\'s making something to try and make a buck, and who\'s making something because they enjoy the films and enjoy what they\'re making.
Why even hang out on a board if you don\'t like the work that\'s produced by the people on that board? That\'s silly to me.
And for the people who say the wait times are too long or the product is too expensive? Fuggim. They\'ve probably never made a damn thing other then brown a$$ sculpture they dropped in the bowl and flushed. If you want damn good high quality stuff, you usually have to wait for it. It\'s part of the hobby. Hardly any of these guys do this stuff full time, it\'s a hobby to them to make things. And if kids/customers/whatever harrases the hell out of the maker, or talks crap about them behind their back. Then one day the makers will get tired of all the BS and stop making whatever it is they make.
And then we\'ll all loose out.
anyway, just my opinion, I don\'t think and hope I don\'t kiss ass. If I like someones work, I tell them I like their work in posts. I don\'t haress them or suck up. It is what it is. I\'ve never owned one of Mikes hockey masks or one of Marks Freds, but I like thier work and say so. (*and I did have a blank TDC at one point, and was damn impressed with the sculpture*)
anyway, kids kiss ass and talk sh\'t. It\'s part of being a kid. I wouldn\'t let it bug ya Mike.
