HLM Repaint w/ Ultimate III

I finally got around to putting my ultimate part 3 combo together: Crash's superb "Hideous Looking Man", paired with a vintage olive drab Big Mac shirt and the best part 3 hock I've ever done, as accurate to the movie mask as I have ever gotten. I'm real happy with this one and it will be one of my few keepers, along with my HUD, SSN New Blood and my own CJ sculpt.

The HLM has been repainted a much darker reddish-tan to more accurately (in my analysis) reflect the movie paint job.

The Hero II

This was my second part 3 mask and it has gotten rave reviews all across the community. A lot of people don't realize how badly crackled the paint on the original part 3 mask was because the smaller details can't be seen on film. It does however appear in photos that were taken on set, including in the best photos of that mask in existence-- the cover to the Final Chapter VHS tape, which shows extensive paint cracking. Anyway, here are a few photos of my version.

The blank is a clear PETG frightstuff. The hock is also bent to look like the one in the film so that I can put it on my display without having the straps squeeze the shit out of it.

This mask takes me about a week to do because the crackle alone is a mind-numbing 3 days work! The rest of it is fairly easy. A lot of guys on the forums have said this is the most accurate part 3 they had ever seen. I concur. And I'm not afraid to say, this is THE most screen accurate part 3 mask since the original one from 1982.
