Best 12'' Michael Myers ever created by man !!!!

[Kabukiman]

That Roy is coming along quickly and nicely. I'm gonna have to start counting my pennies, because I *need* one. Need, as in "cannot live without" :lol

Mezco can suck it.

Mezco can suck it.

:lol I'm glad the head was easy to sculpt, not too much detail to get in there. And now that I have the stuff I need... Should be an easy custom. I'll be starting a Roy thread in the Commerce section soon, just to get a list going and get these made. This figure as well as Michael are easy to make, shouldn't take as long as my Jokers do. Not a lot of clothing work at all. Just the shoulder tear and the bloody stomach wound. :rock

[uscmhicks]

I keep coming back to view these projects , really fantastic work.
Look brilliant Josh , all of them. They will be proudly displayed in my home without a doubt , when I finally buy something to display them on that is.

With work like this Kabukiman is definitely right.

Mezco can most certainly suck it ! :lol

[DarkKnight2k4]

Yes indeed! Awesome book, I love it. And a great reference for Jason projects. :D

And DK! Great news for all Joker orders! Some of the striped pants have finally begun arriving, so I will finally be able to dye some stuff here soon. The shirts are the only thing that takes me a long time.

If ANYONE decides to NOT have the crazy design on the sleeves, let me know. Because if anyone does go that route, I can get it done MUCH faster than it takes me now. The sleeves take me a full 2 days to get finished, IF I can sit down and actually devote the time to them. :google

Sweet ! I can't wait !!!!:banana

How about the other two you have for me ? :naughty:angelsmil:naughty

And the MM Joker is also on his way !

[The Craw]

this thread hasnt been replied to for about 16 hours. Damnit DA!! stop sweeping up popcorn and goobers and post some more pics.:lol

[DarkArtist81]

Well, DK... the other two.. The Buffy is almost finished, the Leia is giving me problems... but I will overcome it somehow. Hasbro stuff is hard for me nowadays. :lol

Tonight while packing up my sale stuff for shipment I found something for my Horror shelf that I had forgotten that I even have. It's the F13th Part 2 Jason figure, given to me by Bannister. He had added blood here and there, I just weathered the Hell out of him really quick and put him on the shelf... Thought I would share some pics. A cool 5 minute workup to bulk up my Horror collection...

:rotfl:lol:rotfl:lol:rotfl:lol

I have RETURNED!! :D

[The Craw]

i was gonna say that was pretty damn quick man.:lol

[King Darkness]

What arms are on him? Or is he on a totally different body?

[DarkArtist81]

A different body altogether. I used an old Majestic Apollo figure body because I liked the bare arms... they match well with the Part 3 figure. He's a bit thin though, I might have to bulk him up.

http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k203/DarkArtist81/Customs2/DSCN4473.jpg

[King Darkness]

Damn, that body with the exposed arms make him look 10x better!!

[uscmhicks]

looks fantastic DA , your not gonna believe what I just did.
The cat ran past me whilst I had a drink in my hand I fell forward trying to move out of the way , hit the table and smashed my jason pf into pieces. I only got it last week too.
Lesson learned I guess. :monkey2:monkey2:monkey2

Get rid of the cat.. :lol

I'm gonna have to buy it again. I loved it.

The new body on the part 2 figure makes it looks ten times better.
Looks great ! :rock

[galactiboy]

Yeah man, that Jason II is sick looking... so sinister and evil :rock You really are in your element with these figures :rock

[DarkKnight2k4]

Well, DK... the other two.. The Buffy is almost finished, the Leia is giving me problems... but I will overcome it somehow. Hasbro stuff is hard for me nowadays. :lol



LoL I bet. But I knew if anyone could do it, You could.

Do you think a Buck body would be good upgrade ? Or do you have something we can use ?



I have RETURNED!! :D

Go to sleep man !!!! lol.



http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k203/DarkArtist81/Customs2/DSCN4473.jpg

Man look how well your Myers looks !!!! They eyes make it come alive !!!!!!

Man I would be pissed.

[DarkArtist81]

Well, today was interesting. Reminds me of "The Killing Joke", where the Joker is trying to prove to Batman that anyone can go insane from just one very bad day. Today was one of those days... :banghead

Where do I....begin?

I went into work today and saw my schedule for next week and this weekend. I had some crazy hours set up and I voiced my opinion about it... aloud.. for everyone to hear. It was bull crap. I was pulling double shifts, working 12 hours... Pretty rough. Well, bad news was... my manager was in there and she flipped a lid. So I started thinking about leaving, called my Wife... told her the scoop... She was talking me down from it.. so I clocked in.

My Boss, the General Manager of that Regal, steps in and says he needs to talk to me. I'm thinking that it's about the schedule and my diatribe earlier. He starts talking and I realize that it is not. See, I turned in my schedule change for the end of this month.. when I start Summer B semester in College. He says that he has good news and bad news.

Good news! I made Employee of the Month, my first month there. A first at that Regal and an honor actually... I was really shocked by that. At least I get an extra $25 bucks for it. :rock

Bad news! My schedule is not going to work, since I cannot open or close due to school... I have to either change the schedule to let me do that or quit. No option to wait until Summer is over.

I told him that I cannot change my schedule, that those classes were hard to score in the first place and I really really need the extra cash... so I was let go. He wanted me to turn in my 2 weeks notice, but I just worked the rest of my shift and left my Regal shirt at the front desk. So now I am unemployed once again. :monkey2

But, funny thing... my last day was the BEST day for me ever at Regal. I found tons of awesome stuff while cleaning theaters today. First, I found a whole bag of candy from a Birthday party group that was there. An unopened package of Sour Patch Kids in another theater. An unopened Beer, a Budweiser Select... :duff And the best was last, I found $75 under a seat. :rock

So it's not all horrible. But still... I am jobless again and no more free movies for me. :banghead

I'm the only person who can earn Employee of the Month and get let go on the same day. :lol

[The Mike]

Wow. Josh....that really sucks. I've got my fingers crossed and you in my prayers my friend. On a positive side though your work has never looked better, you've definitely hit a zone.

[uscmhicks]

My life sucks at the minute too. Fridge broke , jason pf smashed , been having some big arguments. Seems alot of people on this board and down the dumps at the minute.
I know how you feel man. Hey finding that $75.00 wasn't too bad though !. :monkey5
I hope the wife isn't being too hard on ya. It wasn't your fault at all .

[Sick Boy 82]

Damn man, that sucks! Well, I hope you can find something during school man!! And like Mike said, your work is looking just killer Josh!!! Good luck with everything bro!

[DarkArtist81]

Wow. Josh....that really sucks. I've got my fingers crossed and you in my prayers my friend. On a positive side though your work has never looked better, you've definitely hit a zone.

Thanks a lot Mike. I really do appreciate the Hell out of it. I seem to be rolling with my stuff as of late, so that is good. And with all of this time off, I can focus more on catching up and finishing the Joker project.

I will be able to score extra scratch by putting a Myers or Roy on Ebay to get by. My Xander just netted me a clean $160 bucks... not bad. My last Myers sold on Ebay for $200. And that one wasn't as great. So I'm hoping that I can make some good cash. I only made $300 every two weeks working there anyway. Selling two figures in one fell swoop covers that easily. :lol

[DarkArtist81]

Thanks guys.... Yeah, my Wife is actually being very cool about it. She knows things are picking up with my various projects and school starting soon anyway.. so it's all good. But now I really have to pump out some stuff to get money flowing in.

so EBAY here I come. :lol

[King Darkness]

That f'n blows Josh!!!! ^^^^ the man!! One step forward, 10 steps back, story of my life. The author must write your story too:banghead

The Kurgan will provide!!!

[The Craw]

here's to hoping you score another job:duff

when it comes to customizing you're employee of the month every month. at least in my eyes anyway.

[DarkArtist81]

That f'n blows Josh!!!! ^^^^ the man!! One step forward, 10 steps back, story of my life. The author must write your story too:banghead

Yeah, story of my life as well... I think the same twisted bastard is writing our tale in the book of existence. And he is a sick dude. :monkey2

And thank you very much Craw, you rock man. All of you guys are so cool to me, despite my lateness and the drama that seems to follow me around. I can't tell you how great it is to come on here and have people to talk to... no matter what. Really keeps me sane...

Keeps me from ending up like this guy...http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k203/DarkArtist81/suicidegif.gif

Josh , I hope everything works out for you bro. If there's anything I can do to help bro just ask. Anytime you need to talk just give a call. You were the coolest to me when I needed advice on my TERMINATOR ASSASSIN custom and I really appreciated it. I guess one way I can help is to purchase one of your complete Michael Myers from you. I am trying to get some expendable cash together and I will pick one of those up from you to help out. Besides , I MUST HAVE ONE IN MY COLLECTION!!!!! :D Take care bro , Mike

[DarkArtist81]

Thanks Mike, I appreciate that man. Same goes to you, anything you ever need.. just let me know, I'm always here.. I try to help out as much as possible. :duff

And if you want a Myers, I would be honored to make you one bro. I'm just happy to be doing them at all, especially for my friends here on this site. You guys rule, you deserve badass collections. :rock

[Voorhees27]

Any new updates on the completion of the Myers heads?

[DarkArtist81]

Any new updates on the completion of the Myers heads?

Well, they are only waiting for me to glue the hair on them and filthy them up. And I am trying to make more knives. Only 1 out of 4 casts turn out ok, it's a pain in the butt. :lol

I have to ship out some stuff tomorrow, so I will stop in Wal Mart and get some more glue for my hair bits. At least now that I am jobless, I have more time to get these done, as well as the Joker shirts and the Roy figures... AND the repaints that have been piling up for months... :lol

Its all good bro, I remember back in the day, going to college, broke as a joke. IMO school (of any kind) and work just can't coincide with each other.

School and having fun? YES! :banana

[MaulFan]

Josh, you're one of the most stand up guys on this board, I'm sorry to see life take another rough turn, but you're a man of strong character and I know you'll bounce back from this. Just pour yourself into your work, keep making serial killer figures to vent your frustrations :lol, and remember the wisdom of our beloved friend Rocky Balboa, it ain't about how hard you can hit, but how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward, how much you can take and keep moving forward, that's how winning is done, and you sir are an A Class winner :duff

[Shropt]

Good luck DA, sorry to hear about the job.

But it really sounds like you are beginning to understand how much money you can make on ebay with your customs. You truly are an artist and there are LOTS of half-assed guys on ebay making customs and getting WAY too much money for them.

Do the 'bay. It sucks, but you'll make plenty of cash. Just don't get too big of a head and start passing the prices on to us. :monkey3

[superdoug]

Thanks guys.... Yeah, my Wife is actually being very cool about it. She knows things are picking up with my various projects and school starting soon anyway.. so it's all good. But now I really have to pump out some stuff to get money flowing in.

so EBAY here I come. :lol

Sorry to hear about the troubles. I'll keep you and your wife in my prayers but on the bright side at least she's there to go through the hard times with you and from my experiences that is comforting.

by the way did you ever get my last pm?

[eighthsamurai]

josh, everything happens for a reason dude. my answers came in my darkest, lowest hours. and for someone like you, a far better person than i, the great cosmic buddha-jesus-kungfu-snickers-eating-jehovah-crom in the sky is not going to let you suffer for long. as yazz once said, "the only way is up". the pack of candy was a sign. i feel big things happening for you, bro. i really do. this work of yours, it's something else. its way up there with the best customs, way better than most of the manufactured stuff. and that's only going on pics (i don't have any of your work yet but i will soon).

you're one of the reasons i hang out at this board in the first place. so keep strong. despite all these tests, you're still the same cool guy as ever. and that counts for a lot in my book. no general manager butthole could take that from you.

big things, buddy. big things.

[DarkKnight2k4]

I'm the only person who can earn Employee of the Month and get let go on the same day. :lol

Dude I am so sorry to hear about this again in your world.

We will do our best to support you via our addiction :naughty

So guys, keep Josh on top and let's order lots of stuff ! :angelsmil

My life sucks at the minute too. Fridge broke , jason pf smashed , been having some big arguments. Seems alot of people on this board and down the dumps at the minute.
I know how you feel man. Hey finding that $75.00 wasn't too bad though !. :monkey5
I hope the wife isn't being too hard on ya. It wasn't your fault at all .

Yeah it must be a bug going around. Life is definietely on a downslide around... Especially on the financial side. :monkey2

Now that is cool ! Congrats. Let's hope it keeps up !

[Blake]

Damn bud, sorry to hear about this. You did the right thing though, education takes priority! Keep selling your pieces on eBay and things will work out. Heck, you know I am a loyal customer!

[uscmhicks]

is the new body on the jason part two rare ?.
I could really do with some like that. It gives a fantastic look.

[Les Walker]

Sorry about that Josh. I thought you had a good thing going for a while there.
Looks like I do need to call you sometime soon, so we can trade tales of woe.
Hang in there. Stay in school too! No matter what!

[galactiboy]

Man, DA... your boss sounds like an ass. That's really pretty jacked-up that he would fire you because you are going to school! Bad for them is they lost a responsible person... good for you that you don't have to sweep up crap anymore :lol

Were you able to get student loans yet to help with you living expenses? Also, when you are at school look for student employment on campus. I've had some seriously cake jobs when I was an undergraduate. Once working at an Art Gallery, the 2nd as housekeeping for the Student Center. The second job I would average 15mins of work/2 hour period and that was expected by the higher-ups... Id either bull^^^^ with people or do homework and get paid, even made supervisor :lol

And glad to help out with my Myers and Roy purchases :rock

[Kabukiman]

My Xander just netted me a clean $160 bucks...

I knew that one would fetch some coin!

As for your job: work is for suckers. You need to go into this figure business full time. I don't know the legalities of working on licensed characters or whatnot, but there's gotta be some way to make it work.

[King Darkness]

p!tu has got to know some slimy Puerto Ricans that can burn that weak ass theater to the ground! Shoot him a PM Josh, make it so!!!

If you would rather them not burn it to the ground, I am sure he can get a couple dudes to ass rape your old boss.

I think last night was a bit of a sign as well. I was above that job, they were lucky to have ME... not the other way around. And I think the candy, the beer, the money... it was all just a way for me to know that things will get better from here.

[TheObsoleteMan]

A guy with your kind of talent has bigger things in store. At least you went out in Kurgan style, employee of the month and walked.

It's better to burn out than to fade away!

Now call yourself a freelance artist.

If you got employee of the month first month which was meant to be a rarity you were way to good for the job. And you walked out with your chin held high, respect.

Sideshow was looking at portfolios at Wizard World. You just never know.

you reminded me of indy then Les . :rotfl:lol

[Grange Wallis]

A different body altogether. I used an old Majestic Apollo figure body because I liked the bare arms... they match well with the Part 3 figure. He's a bit thin though, I might have to bulk him up.

http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k203/DarkArtist81/Customs2/DSCN4473.jpg

I have a spare SS Big Boy Body if you want it? You could swap out the arms under the elbow you keep those bare arms, which look great btw. PM me if you are interested...

[DarkArtist81]

Thanks Grange! I will send you a PM pronto!

Just finished Roy, here he is... firstly... I think it's fitting that he is shorter than the true Jason, makes him all the more "impostor-ish".

[Blake]

DA, you are friggin' amazing dude. Your figures puts every other mass-produced figure to shame.

I have a question for you, and I might have asked you in the past but I am not sure. Is there any way you could do Donald Pleasance as Dr. Loomis?

[DarkArtist81]

DA, you are friggin' amazing dude. Your figures puts every other mass-produced figure to shame.

I have a question for you, and I might have asked you in the past but I am not sure. Is there any way you could do Donald Pleasance as Dr. Loomis?

Thanks Blake, that means a lot man. I wish I had some helpers around, I would love to make this a full fledged company one day... just to be able to make a whole mess of figures. :banana

As for Loomis, I have wanted one for a LOOONG time. If I could sculpt a human likeness, I would have done it already for sure. No sculpt I have seen looks decent enough to use as a sub, and I don't think any company has done a 1:6th scale Loomis either or I would just cut the head off and cast that sum^^^^^!

I've talked to Les about it a few times, it's something that we both want... so we are both looking into to it. I just wish someone would do a sculpt. Everything else about him is easy. :monkey2

[Kabukiman]

Those eyes are just frickin' sinister!

[DarkArtist81]

Those eyes are just frickin' sinister!

Thanks man, that was one of the most important factors for me. He HAD to have intense hate in his eyes. He had to look like he was full of such intense rage that only a murderous rampage would sate it. :rock:rock:rock

[Rugby1970]

This is a great looking figure, Darkartist. Dare I say it maybe one of your best yet? It may seem like simple stuff but you really pulled together a lot of different elements to give us a figure to complete our Friday the 13th collections.

It really would be cool if you could start your own company one day. Keep it up. Crazier things have happened.

Nicely done!

[MaulFan]

Shawn (Sovereign Studios) has Loomis in his pipeline, he's done a sculpt and we confered about some work it needed but pretty solid, I'm going to stay in touch with him on it as I need it to compliment my Myers from him, I'm sure he could make a few once he has the first one complete, I'll keep you posted on anything I hear from him.

[DarkArtist81]

Thanks Sean! Shawn does great work, I'm sure that Loomis will rock. Can't wait to see it. We need a Loomis desperately.

[MaulFan]

Ya, Laurie would be cool too, JLC Laurie that is, but Loomis is the Yang to Michael's Yin, and I'd love to have Pleasance immortalized in 3D form :rock Since I already own the NECA Michael, I can't bring myself to buy the 2 pack as it's the same figure just with Loomis in addition. Classic horror movie response quote, "You don't know what death is!"

[Voorhees27]

WOW! Just awesome Josh, I just watched part V the other day and I can honestly tell you this is a home run! The Mask's weathering is spot on and sooooo realistic, i'm sure you are just waiting on the "Blue" jumpsuit right?

Again this is just great!

[DarkArtist81]

Thanks! I am waiting on the correct suit as well, just borrowing a Michael suit at the moment. But blue suits on en route as well. I will be adding his wounds, stomach and left shoulder as soon as I do have it.

As for the mask, that Crystal Lake Memories book is amazing. They had a really nice Roy shot in that one that I used for mask reference. I wanted it to look as close I could possibly do it. I made it just a tad dirtier, but just because it's me and I can't help it. :lol

But ROY!! A Freakin ROY in my Jason lineup??!! Never thought I would see the day. :rock

Absolutately fantastic job on Roy! Though it reall is funny that Jason's imposter is so well loved :lol

I really like how you did the masks. Both the hockey and Jason head.

[DarkArtist81]

Thanks Brant! I'm glad I didn't wuss out on this one and do the mask sculpted on route that I was gonna take. I like it so much better with Roy under there. He looks so damn pissed. :lol

A lesser customizer would have done just that. Heck, its what I am doing with a TDK Joker Goon (not the Joker) that I'm working on. But I justify that since we don't see what any of them look like under the masks. That was also Sideshow's excuse on the two Jason's that didn't have removable masks.

But back to you, amazing! The double masks really paid off well. You should be very proud. Its the little things that bring an OK custom to a fantastic one, which yours certainly is!

PS I'll try and get around to posting my Goon sculpt tomorrow. Its a work in progress, but I'm quite pleased with it so far.

[tigerfeet]

wow that roy looks amazing.....and the eyes are just too darn scary...:horror

[galactiboy]

Thanks Grange! I will send you a PM pronto!

Just finished Roy, here he is... firstly... I think it's fitting that he is shorter than the true Jason, makes him all the more "impostor-ish".

That is badass dude!!! I cannot wait to get him on my shelf... although I hope him and Myers don't put the other stock figures to shame

You should be proud dude, you nailed this one :rock :rock

Ive said it before, but your work, especiallyon the face and eyes really brings your pieces alive... gives them a soul. It is fantastic what you do.

[DarkArtist81]

Ive said it before, but your work, especially on the face and eyes really brings your pieces alive... gives them a soul. It is fantastic what you do.

Thank you so much man. I totally agree. It's all in the eyes, as Les told me. If you can get a good expression out of a sculpt, you have it. All the rest is cake.

And great news, DA fans!! I am going to SDCC this year, it is a GO! Roy and Myers have helped pave the way for me to go, and so I will be bringing Roy, Myers and my Joker to the Con. I will show them off, maybe drop by the Sideshow booth and share it with them. Should be pretty badass!

So I will be trying to catch up until then, try to get to all of this very late work. And anyone who wants a figure, especially if you are going to SDCC and want me to HAND deliver it... get on the list now. You will not only get it directly from the artist but you will be helping fund the trip as well.

And anyone who wants to help out in any way, I will be adding a donation button on my website! Help DA get to SDCC! :rock

SWEET! :rock

Glad you are comming. If you aren't finished with my Joker items earlier, then hand delivering them to me is also an option. ;)

Wouldn't it be sweet if we got enough of us Freaks participating in the Custom Figure Challenge to bring their figures to the con that Sideshow would have a little podium for them :lol Unrealistic, but would be cool nonetheless.

I can't wait to see your Roy, Myers, and Joker in person too! :horror

[uscmhicks]

Don't know if you like the character as much as me but have you ever considered doing a Jack torrence from the shinning , I know theres a figure out but I think yo could do a fantastic job and its very hard to get and very expensive.
Sorry if a few of us are bombarding you with " have you ever considered making " posts. :lol
after seeing your recent work us horror collectors are just very excited about what you take on next.

Sweet !. :D
Please make it ( gets on knees and begs ) PLEAAASSEE !. :monkey2:monkey2:rotfl

No seriously , please make this figure.

Its up there with the Creeper on my most wanted figure list.
I have always loved the shining , the score was so frightening , and the look on his face as he froze in the ice. Terrifying . One of his best performances ever.

If you decide to make it I would recommend watching the movie again first just to pick up on the way he is. He is a very unique character , a guy that super crazy yet intelligent and sort of knows whats going on but plays along anyway. He really cracks up and gets even scarier as the movie goes along.

REDRUM ! REDRUM !

Make this figure dude , honestly , its a must for any fan of the movie or even just horror in general , hes a big part of movie history as far as I'm concerned.
:D

Plus I know if you do you will get a hell of a lot fo pms regarding it. :lol:rock

awesome man... I'm contimplating on ordering your myers... must resist....

I don't even have mine yet and I'll say you should get it. Josh and I have gone back and forth about Myers and Halloween a lot, the man loves the character and you can't beat a figure with that kind of passion behind the craftsmanship.

[DarkArtist81]

Hey guys, big update here. I wanted to let you all know the status of repainting things, Jokers and Myers...

Right now I am pumping away at several repaints, trying to get caught up on some that have been here for MONTHS. I also wanted to personally apologize to all thos who have had to wait so damn long for me to do this. The theater job really sucked the creativity out of me and drained me of painting time, so I'm glad to be free of it.

I'm done with the "head only" Jokers, they will ship out tomorrow or the next day at the latest. I'm also making it my personal quest to finish the rest of the Jokers by the end of this month, bar none. So please bear with me on them, they are coming....

Myers is also nearing completion, trying to get them finished as we speak too. The Anguish statue is coming too, a long time Bannister has waited for that one.

After those get completed I will be pretty much caught up and will be able to breath again. But I just wanted you all to know that I will be pushing myself hard to get these finished. You deserve to have them already and you deserve quicker turnaround times.

Thanks everyone, I need all the support I can get!

Today so far has been amazing. I'm nearing completion on a four figure deal from Orbiting X, just a few touches and they are done. Painting a few Anakins, Wolverine heads, GB's Blade Runner, Josh's Obi, Grad Day Buffy and a few Leia figures.

I will be doing Joker shirts tonight and will be done with Drunk Leprechaun's Joker when I am done, possibly even done with the next on the list as well. Today has been awesome. :rock

Pics coming very soon.

Ok, just finished Orbiting X's Anakin, which I am proud to say may be the best one I have done yet as far as tones in the skin and hair. These pics do it no justice at all, it's stunning in person. I'm also finishing up his three others tonight too, so I should have pics coming.

I have been having major computer issues the last few days, looks like I have some viruses or something. Hopefully it won't get too bad. I couldn't even log on since this morning.

Great job on the eyes Josh, you really got some emotion in them, even though Sith eyes tend to just have their impact by design, you've given the style life, great work.

[DarkArtist81]

Thanks guys! I will try to take some nice shots tomorrow with the whole group I am doing.. these pics don't show the color under the eyes or the depth in the skin. It's something I just can't stop looking at, really captured something there. And the eyes scream sadness and fury at the same time... I'm surprised it came out like that.

[TheObsoleteMan]

You're the master of the pissed off eyes. Tones and shading are gorgeous, especially around the eyes.

[The Josh]

Damn! That really is one of the best I've seen.

[The Craw]

i like the extra hair strands you painted on the forehead. really adds to the charactor IMO.

[hemble]

Yet again you've shown us that not only can you make a figure come to life you have the ability to give them eyes that show emotion excellent work indeed.

Thanks Sean! It's actually Sculpey. And this is my least favorite Jason face, as it was melting and had a mouth like a jack o lantern. :lol

But I'm happy with how it turned out. I used a whole bunch of reference to get it as close as possible.

[TheObsoleteMan]

You've really been on a creative roll lately. It's been a while since I've seen Jason Takes Manhattan, but it looks likes you nailed his melting from toxic waste look.

[MaulFan]

You've really been on a creative roll lately.

Agreed, but there is a pattern, the DarkArtist is touching upon darker subject matter. Having Josh do Luke Skywalkers and the likes is doable, he's talented and can do anything, but everytime he walks the dark side, he really shines in mind. When you can put yourself that extra bit into your work by connecting with the subject matter, the subconscious kicks in and something more comes out of you that you don't even expect or plan.

[Buttmunch]

That Jason looks great! Fantastic job!

[King Darkness]

DAMN!!! I think you did an amazing job, Jason is INSTANTLY recognizable!!!!!

Thanks Sean! It's funny how that seems to be my "thing". Les and I have talked at great length about that. When I go into that darker subject matter, somehow I always do my best work. I guess it's where my heart is...

And thank you all so much, this has been a bunch of fun. I went ahead and painted this sculpt up, just for kicks... and it was only a few layers of paint to do for him anyway...

[DarkArtist81]

Thank you all so much. These Jason's are fueling the fires of my other repaints... helping to push me along this backlog of work. Which.. is thankfully moving forward. I am shipping out some stuff tomorrow and hopefully early next week as well. Things are moving along at a steady pace.

As for the Jason...I Finished the mask. I found rings for the mask straps, used aluminum foil for the metal attach points on the mask. Straps are leather, but a bit thick... They still work fine though with some trimming. I could not find a metal square for the back of the mask, but I found big enough rings to use for it. Has the FVJ look now, still works perfectly fine. I figured I wouldn't find that part. The paint came out great, I had the CL Memories book and it helped a LOT in that dept. Had to get all the telltale scrapes on the mask... I also put fabric behind the eyes to make it screen accurate, works great.

Well, without further ado... here it is.

So, what your saying is Josh is kinda like...

Jason Voorhees!!!

We should call his ass Josh Voorhees :lol

[MaulFan]

I'm not familiar with Jason, but given his costumes and such, I think you could equate Josh to Michael Myers, no matter what you hit him with, he gets right back up and with more force than before you knock him down.

[galactiboy]

True dat... I figured Jason might work since he always seemed to get more and more ridiculously powerful from film to film. But I guess thats true for most slasher icons.

Either way, bottom-line: Josh = Kickass!!!

Freakin' SICK Josh!!! I love the fabric behind the eyes!!

[DarkArtist81]

It was very important to me to get the details of this mask right. I sat with the photos, and hammered out the logistics of it. I walked around Wal-Mart for hours trying to get all the stuff I needed, looking for anything I could use. It worked out great, I was able to score what I needed to get it done and this was the result.

The head is now sitting on my Jason shelf, awaiting his body... And I can't stop looking at it. It's really crazy how nice the mask came out. :duff

[King Darkness]

You definitely have a passion for the Jason masks. I would be great to have a separate set of all the Jason masks from all the films. Somehow displayed in a long shadow box frame, how cool would that be:rock

That way you could display your figures with masks and have a kick ass display piece with all the masks too:rock

[DarkArtist81]

That would be pretty sweet! I've always loved the Jason masks and had a collection of replicas at one point. I was amazed to learn the details of the masks and how they changed in each film... It was something I remembered when it came time to do this project. It's all in the minute details, when you add those... new life comes to the sculpt.

I will be available to make any masks that can be made from this base mask, I'm glad I molded it... Sideshow did the hard work, I'm just following it through to it's logical conclusion. I can't wait to have the figures on my shelf with my custom masks instead of the plastic flimsy ones. :rock

[King Darkness]

Maybe sometime I will commission you to make me a mask from each movie, that would be an awesome little display, lined up in a black shadow box frame. All the masks from prt 3 to JVF.

[DarkArtist81]

Dude, that would be awesome! I might have to do that for myself as well. Great idea. :rock

[King Darkness]

:rock :rock :rock :rock :rock :rock

[YoNoSe]

I don't know how much the masks differ from film to film, but I imagine sets of 1 from each film would be really popular with guys who have 1 SSC Jason. Then you'd need to make his different jumpsuits, and some gloves...it'd be like a psycho version of Bratz. Maybe Splatz? :)

[The Craw]

sweet!! you made that mask from scratch?? it turned out freakin' great!!!

[DarkArtist81]

Thanks guys! And yes I did. Made a mold of the Jason mask and have been making versions from that base. It's been good to me... :D

Anyway... I wanted to post some other pics... Here are a few in work items. The Anakin and Han are done, Han might need tweaks. Luke and J Alba are about halfway there, still need work too. Buffy is almost done. The heads are getting closer too, that will be what my night is focused on... the rest of this stuff. Also working on 3 Anakin heads and still toiling away on the Anguish statue. It is...ironically... anguish.

so DA when are we going to see your dc direct joker.

[DarkArtist81]

What body are you gonna use? I have Sideshow ladies in my collection and a DID perfect body that is mid zombie right now... I could fit it to one of those if you are gonna use one of them. And then just ship the head... save you some shipping.

[DarkArtist81]

Well, when I actually get my hands on it. Right now I have something on the way. It's a plan as of right now, a rough outline... But I will have something to show soon.

But that said, even though I don't have it in hand as of right now... I have seen it with a coat over the face to show the sculpt and it looks fantastic. I KNOW it will look fantastic and very accurate to Ledger. :D

[rabidwolverine21]

looking forward to seeing it, we already know how good of a ledger you can make from spare parts and super sculpy

That's rad. Seeing the whole thing put together really makes the headsculpt pop.

:google that is sweeeeeeeet!!!! very cool indeed. dude, was just wondering if my supeses were close on the list. poor buggers are wondering where their heads have got to.

[DarkArtist81]

Yes indeed they are. I am grinding out these 6 month plus uber late headpaints and then I will be focused on yours and some others that are just shy of that same time frame.

[eighthsamurai]

awesome man. you rock. you should open a painting school. i've always wanted to learn to paint and it would be great to learn from one of the masters on here. i mentioned it to darren a long time ago - a UK workshop or something would be cool. you should do one in your area. even if we can't paint like you (i definitely couldn't - what you all do comes from something special inside) at least we'd get to see the magic of the process.

BADASS! You are the man, bro.... I cannot wait to paint it. Your work on this Joker has inspired me to work harder on my own Joker and the rest of the commissioned "Joker Project" figures. We've had so many great conversations and talks about the film and Heath's Joker... we've gone back and forth on our Joker work, each of us raising the bar higher and higher... And this one is about as high as that bar can go for a Heath Joker. I'm so proud to have been any small part of the process that helped it come about. I'm honored to be able to hold in my hands and paint it, it will be a cornerstone of my collection.

And most of all, every single time I look at my own figure or yours... I know I won't help but think of our friendship means to me. :rock

Good news all around today, the last few days have been very productive. I finished one commission, the Luke,Han,Anakin and Alba one. Also made LOTS of progress on Bannister's uber late Anguish figure. I made significant progress on several of the heads that have been backed up for a while. No time for pics of all the works in progress... but here are a few of Anguish WIP and the Joker I just made for Drunk leprechaun. The coat looks light in these shots, but I assure you... it's the lighting. That thing is dark purple.

Thanks Joseph. I am making it my own personal quest to get Anguish done in the next few weeks, no matter WHAT. It's been waaay too long.

[Buttmunch]

Both look absolutely amazing! That Anguish is a work of art in its own twisted way. And I don't know how you keep improving on the Joker but you are. I love how pissed he looks. I also like the smearing black make-up and the lipstick.

Thanks man, I think what has happened is that each time Les and I do another Joker we get inspired by the other's work... It's a cycle that has paid off for the both us on with these. His Heath Joker already has me amped to paint the rest of the ones I have lined up, just to push myself harder! :lol

It will erase what little profit I actually made off of these, from $20 per figure to $0 or perhaps negative.... BUT... it's worth it. I'll just be happy to have them done and off to the people who paid to have them. :rock

It was never about profit anyway....:duff

You and me both. Between the vest and long coat, his outfit is kinda hard to come by. And obviously that shirt doesn't exist (until BillyB) so that has taken up most of your time.

I plan on displaying mine as a "Jail" Joker since I still haven't gotten the coat (I am bidding on one though!) so that will also show off your masterpiece of a shirt.

Know that I still revere Josh's painted shirts as much as anything he has ever done. And, to be fair, (to myself a bit here) I did push Billy in the direction I wanted on the shirts that Josh is now getting, so some of that finished look, is what I wanted. You are welcome there. At least that got solved for all.

And yes Josh, I too, wish I could sew. Working on that.... But until then, knowing others that can, is a blessing. I try to do what I do well, and others do what they do well. That is what makes it all so special.
