Heres another restoration i did a good few years ago, growing up as a kid i used to get an American horror film magazine called Fangoria
it covered all the eighties horror flicks, and had various adverts for monster masks and books, i could never afford them not on my five pound a week wages from a paper round, one advert in particular always stuck out to me, the advert was for a predator mask from the movie predator, i had that ad in a scrapbook and would sit looking at it, here's the ad

 cut to several years later when i was grown and married, i found the mask on ebay for not a bad price so bought it, when it came i was shocked to see a lousy factory paintjob, and it was in disrepair, had holes and needed fixingup, i sighed and boxed it up till i could spend the time to fix it, here it is
So i repaired all the damage, gave it a complete repaint, and added the screen accurate blaster and gun mount to the shoulder
  



I was happy with it now, but had nowhere to display it as it was quite large, so ended up selling it on to a collector, i was glad i had finally got a childhood dream item, and that i could repair it, hope you liked the story and the pics 

Out and about.
How many men does it take to fill a hole ?   This many

thanks, sounds cool and scary, i miss doing the house up, fun times

i haven't done any mask work this year, just haven't been up to it, here's hoping i feel better in the new year
