Thanks for all the visits over these last 17 years. Amazingly, this blog has now passed one million views. I started this blog on November 17, 2009--almost exactly 17 years ago today--with the intent to just display my hockey masks paint jobs. Since then, its become a repository of Friday the 13th history, costume and special effects work, with contributions from both myself and others in the fandom. Since the forums have declined, I'm happy to be a part of the preservation of behind-the-scenes knowledge for our favorite horror franchise.
I've also noticed recently it has spawned a number of Youtubers painting their Part 3 masks with Maimeri's Patina Varnish. Given that it probably has little other use, I wonder if Maimeri is mystified by the uptick in sales over the last decade.
