Mezco 15" Sam from Trick R Treat

They look very similar. The ss version has more dirt on the pajamas.

I like the mezco sculpt better but the weathering/paint and hands were better on the SS

I reworked him a little and cut and distressed his burlap around the neck/hands, added some weathering, a wash and some padding under his burlap head sack to fill it out more like the movie. Thoughts?

Way better! I love it.

it's a nice alternative to the expensive SS one. I wouldn't sell the SS for this though, but it looks like some trimming of the sack and putting the material on the hands, adding some minor weathering and it looks much better. It's a nice little fig for the price. I think the SS one was retailed at $70 too back in the day? I nabbed 2 of em then....

That looks great what did you use for padding?

How do you "dirty" him up? I'd like to try that.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Here is what I used-

I just used scissors to cut the burlap to the shape it was in the movie around the neck after installing the filler. I then used an Xacto on the edges of the burlap to distress it.

To fill/round out the head I used Dollar General Snow Cover. But you can use any filling material.


To weather him I used my Tamiya modeling weathering kits and rubbed Mud and Soot in various places. I used War Paints wash on the hands to dirty them up.



And here is a short video review before/after my futzing/weathering-

Great job burtial!

 

[Darth Madden]

Hummm.... I don't have a weathering kit but maybe I can get one.

 

[newarkcapo]

Thank you for sharing that I think I'm going to apply this to mine.

Thanks for those tips! Definitely going to use these techniques

 

[burtial]

You guys are welcome. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask...

I didn't want to spend any more than 30 min on it, but when I feel like messing with it again, I think I'll redo the blood on the fingers as it's lacking.

Mine came in yesterday. Cute little guy.

 

[DarkMario616]

Whenever I get mine, I'll repaint the hands...the blood is garbage lol

 

[Collectorcol]

I hate how the hands look. If I had talent that would be the first project.

Nice pic Kane
