I've been into horror movies and memorabilia since about the age of 8. When I'm not all geeked out talking about building my next PC or finding network solutions, I find comfort in sitting in my cold-ass garage trying to make accurate replicas for horror movie fans. You can check out some of my work by clicking below. What hobbies/side jobs do you guys/gals have? I like finding out that I'm not the only oddball here. My wife thought I was a serial killer when she first met me.... but now she's kind of accepted it. LOL. What can I say, it's all nostalgic and keeps me acting like a kid again. BTW, these hockey mask replicas sell from $160-$250 depending on the style. Usually only the most hardcore fans order them that are sick of the cheap $5 glow-in-the-dark alien looking hocks you find at Walmart, Spencers, etc.

Yeah. If I were your wife and I walked down into the garage and saw you making those I might be a little scared.

Sadly, my hobby of sitting around watching hockey and football and surfing the web doesn't pay very well.

Picture of myself and said wife. I know I got the better end of the deal.

Dude, I think you just derailed your own thread.

LOL... how so? I opened up the opportunity for people to blast me?

I knew it was coming sooner or later. I've got nothing to hide. Roast away.
 
I was going to come in here to mock you, but those look badass. To be honest, it looks as if you are undercharging.

I think they are going to want to "blast" your wife.
 
Well this is good. Now at least the thread will get more replies since no one else out there really has a hobby.....

Except maybe wanting to blast my wife.

Thank you very much. I spend a lot of time on them and pay a lot of attention to little details by studying screen caps from each film. Each mask can take anywhere from a week or two to finish - sometimes 10-15 hours total.

omgaw she is soooo facking hawt.

That said, don't down on yourself. You're not a fucking balloon and you have good symmetry and a clean face.

Haha... thanks, I said the same thing when I first laid eyes on her. She's a sweetheart too.

I'm not a balloon yet... but if I keep eating these damn Willies burritos I'll be 200+ in no time. I need to join a gym, but I just keep thinking I'll quit after 2 months - and I'll be locked into another 2 yr wasted contract.
 
Those are some nice masks and you have done some good work but think it better to keep posting pics of the wife instead. :laugh:
