Welcome to Camp Crystal Lake: Show Us Some JASON!

Lol man I know the feeling of being an OCD about certain things. Lucky for me its not that bad.

Maybe a medium size? If you already have a size L and M, why dont you test by putting a long sleeve shirt on it before determining the right size and buy one?

 

[DarkMario616]

Hmm. I went with an L because I don't want it to be so small that it makes Jason look tiny. I'm still going to stuff the large, and I'll even wash it and throw it in the dryer before weathering and sizing up. Worst case I'll switch it out to a medium (amazon) but I think it should fit slightly better.

 

[amstel]

Let me know how that goes! Good luck. It's coming along really well though.

 

[DarkMario616]

I hope so! Once the hand situation is resolved, it should be nearing completion. I'm going to be fixing the blood around the mask to look more splattered because it's a bit too neat for my liking, probably the only thing that I will add to the mask. Maybe a little dry brushing of burnt umber to give that dirt look Jason has around his bald head too. Probably my favorite acrylic, useful for EVERYTHING.

With the larger sized DSS mask, it stands about three-four inches smaller than Michael, from what I can tell. So it's not all that short I guess.

Zsas says he should have a photo for me tomorrow in regards to the p4 hock I'm excited to see it!!

I think it looks a lot better now with the large sized shirt. Still need to stuff more and actually weather the shirt and remove tags.... But it looks better.

Wow Mario. I would chain him down, looks very intimidating. You won't get any trick or treaters this year if you display him outside. Lol. Or maybe he will disappear

 

[amstel]

I was just telling him the same thing about those poor kids coming to his house wanting candy but there's Jason and Michael! Lol

 

[DarkMario616]

I can't wait until halloween to display Myers and Jason. Maybe I'll have a Freddy done by then . I know that my top 3 priority for 1/1 conversion are Freddy, Collector, and Jason Pt. 2. But I've got plenty of timeeeee. I want to make a museum of them lmao.

I fixed the blood application on the head, not to insult Paul (because the mask was 9/10), but it needed a little tweaking...bothered me a bit. Blood is perfection. Should I add some dirt around the mask? Can't tell if it looks a bit too clean for my liking.

[DarkMario616]

Yah my mask definitely needs a light dry brush of raw or burnt umber, just to make the mask pop more. Although the blood won't go around towards his ear. My part 4 is going to be an early part 4 (where he still has two triangles on his mask). My project is finally coming together quite nicely and I'm happy (finally)!

 

[amstel]

Gotcha. I wasn't sure which look you were aiming for with part 4, his looks changed from the beginning towards the end of the movie. Glad its working out for you to be able to complete your project to your satisfaction! Can't wait to see the figure when its all done.

 

[RockEzy]

Did you do all the paint apps Mario. Great detail bro!

 

[DarkMario616]

Nah, I wish I was that talented! The mask was created/painted by Paul @ Darkside Studio. I just touched up the blood, and now, I added some dirt to bring out the detail of the mask! I think I messed up Jason's right cheek and I think it looks okay now but overall I'm happy with it!

Looks great Mario. Still intimidated lol.

Just wondering guys, what kind of body is considered the best for Jason Voorhees customs?

Got two of the old Sideshow Part III Jasons and despite its faults I really like the body shape. Thing is, its also a lot taller than normal 1/6 bodies so if I put together a custom it would still look short.
So how to fix this, extra long ankle pegs or something? Share those secrets!

ACI Christian body is a pretty popular choice for Jason. I've got one bashed for a Jason part 3 figure. Yep extra long ankle pegs will do and I did mine by hand instead of buying those extra long pegs because by handmade I can decide on the length of the pegs to determine how tall I want my figures to be.

We went for a little ride.

Lmao Mario that's funny.

 

[DarkMario616]

Let me tell you I got some strange looks lol. He's sitting in the car while I'm at EMT class. Put a towel over his head of course.
