Happy April 1st! (New Castle stretch sculpt)

:wink:

:open_mouth::open_mouth::open_mouth::open_mouth::open_mouth:

Something about this reminds me of Dennis Beckstrom work

That’s the other artist I was thinking of. Maybe it’s going to be the DB3?

I can see why one would think that, however when we see the artists hands it doesn’t fit with his age. Hands look to be from a younger individual. Although I guess if he had a son…

But yeah I don’t think it’s him. Could be wrong, but I’m thinking it’s someone else…

Evidently he’s giving himself away to those who are familiar with him, so the cats out of the bag with some folks around here.

Maybe that’s the April fool’s joke this whole time, is that it’s someone we all should probably know or heard of, but are too taken back by the sculpt and mask to notice? Lol hard to say.

Guys I think you are overthinking this lol

Lol, well a year and a half of this so far allows for a ton of overthinking lol.

No because I’ve never lost a minute of sleep over Michael Myers masks, but the handling of the clay is reminiscent of how Beckstrom works. Just an observation from my training in clay sculpture, not necessarily mask making.

I know speculating can be fun, but does anyone mind if I ask why it matters who the guy is?

That is meant to be a real question, by the way :slight_smile:

Whoever the sculptor is, they’re just that. A sculptor. Someone who knows their stuff. I mean look at Nik, who’s a great sculptor but can’t get close to this sculpt with his ripoff sculpt. It’s no amateur that’s for sure.

Well you just said exactly what it is for me, a fun speculation.

I know what I’m about to say is going to produce an audible gasp across the board, but it’s not even my favorite sculpt. There are others I like better. But that’s just my personal taste and opinion.

After well over a year of this, I am just having a bit of fun with it at this point. That, and who doesn’t like a good whodunnit mystery :laughing:

Yeah speculation is fun. No harm in that.

Maybe it’s Lee Romaire​:question: After all he’s made 2 Castle Stretch masks in the past… Second Stab and Whitey​:exclamation::thinking:

I’m thinking it’s a pro sculptor with a knowledge of Myers. There aren’t many out there that fit that description. Most avoid the Myers area like the plague. Look at Steve Wang who’s one of the greatest sculptors on the planet and he couldn’t even come close with his Myers. It has to be someone who really knows the Myers mask well. If it’s just an amateur sculptor then they need to think about changing their line of work because damn, they have talent. . lol

:wink:

clearly it is terry lambert

I don’t think Terry could sculpt this if he had 18 years to work on it. We are talking about the same guy that made the Saint Nick

Oh burrn

Agreed, I’m just having a laugh :laughing:

I would not say that at all. Niks PS78 is THE 1978 mask to have right now. It’s amazing and to me the best mask out currently. This sculpt is a great one, but it doesn’t capture 78 Myers like Niks does
