First off I have something that I want to say about this community and I have not been a member here for very long but have been a fan of the first 2 halloween films forever and I have had a pretty decent Myers collection for quite sometime now, I just did not know this community was out here. I have such a deeper appreciation and respect for the art of mask making and this community in the fact that the respect that all members on this site have towards one another is refreshing. Some other forums, its like a free escape to trash talking Island, about people, its crazy but onto the post title.
I am in search of a new mask to add to the collection and would appreciate this communities helping me make the choice, hence the abov statements. I know that it is really up to the person purchasing the mask and what they like but I am seeing so many quality masks and artists, its wild!
Okay question, the Nemesis, I like but found 2 masks of the same name from 2 different production studios. Cryptco and Boogeyman Masks, what is this about and which is better? I have a Warlock(CGP), FEAR(CGP), and ST. NICK (SS) besides the ST. NICK (Which SS has the rights to), I know that Cryptco has the mold and rights to the now defunct CGP but have heard mixed emotions about Cryptco on this site. So which in OPINION is the better mask?
I also am falling in love with the Tiberius V2 that Boogeyman has, its a great looking H1/H2, fantastic actually just don’t know to much about the artist and studio, OPINIONS?
Lastly is the Sinister Studios “Obsession Mask” it is a retool of the St.NICK but does one heck of a phone scene(Which is the most menacing scene in the movie, to me) I know that “Sandman” has one and Chris used to work for Terry at CGP so he knows what he is doing, just would like some other members input, if you would?
I apologize for the long read and post but I am just having a heck of a time deciding on what to add to the collection and all OPINIONS and help by you guys would be greatly appreciated.
Note: Reason I have Capitalized OPINIONS is because I do not want any artists of the above named studios to think that this is a post to cause DRAMA, but completely the opposite, I just very much would value the OPINIONS of this Communities Members.
Thank you!
Ok if you want OPINIONS…
I’ve owned masks from all that you mentioned & if you were going to get a nemesis i would definitely go with David Pope @ Boogeyman masks. David is a very underrated artist and will keep you informed & updated all the time.
I wasn’t too impressed with CryptCo. with what I ordered but have seen a few things from them that looked ok.
Me personally, I cant see what all the fuss is about the Obsession mask. Those eyes really turn me off, they look cross eyed or something. But beauty is in the eye of the beholder. If you like it, get it. Maybe get a blank & let James Carter fix the eyes.
You will not be disappointed with anything from Boogeymanmasks.
What he said
The best Nemesis I’ve seen besides the ones done by Terry are by Boogeyman mask.
All the ones I’ve seen were fantastic copies with superb finishing.
The Tiberius is a an authorized retool of the Nemesis. If you like the Nemmie, the Tiberius together would make a good pair
Seriously Ditto on the Boogeyman Nemesis…it’s amazing!!!
Nick
Make sure you go to boogeymanmasks.net not .com I recommend the boogeyman 75.
ive always wanted like alot of davids masks, his work is amazing, i love all his stuff, Z
Ive owned only 1 of davids masks, the wessix, and i was absolutely in love! Ive seen his Nemesis in person, and man, what a mask! it had the look of H1 and H2, and the pull was perfect thickness. HIGHLY reccommended! i plan on buying more from him in the future!
thanks guys, this really has made things easier. Thanks Again!
