I’m Seeking information on how to weather the Carhartt Coveralls to get the greenish look from the remake. Since I can’t find them I’m just going to weather them myself but need to know how! Any information would be greatly appreciated!
I think you contacted me on youtube since I make these but not sure. Maybe someone on here knows for sure, but I seen the pics of the screen used ones online on yourprops I believe, and there is no green. I have seen the pic of a pair with pics taken in front of green bushes and trees that look greeenish, but that appears to be just the reflection of all the green around them. In reality they would not be green and would not make sense being green unless Myers hung in the woods like Jason all the time maybe. That was the only pic I seen that looked green but it is from the bushes it looks like. I think green would ruin the look I do them to look dirty and greasy like real ones would look. I think someone just saw the reflection off the coveralls in that pic and thought the coveralls were that color. But why would they be?

Don’t see that here: http://www.yourprops.com/Michael-Myers-Tyler-Mane-Hero-original-screen-used-costumes-wardrobe-Halloween-Rob-Zombie-s-2007-prop-45355.html
But maybe someone else here can say for sure?
Although I’m disappointed that my screenused coveralls didn’t get linked in that last post I’ll back up the fact that there is no green going on anywhere on the screenused coveralls.
Looks great
You got the screen used ones? Awesome! I did not think so, I think that all started from the reflection of the green plants, whether it be on the coveralls themselves, the paint/sealer, or the photo itself causing the reflection picking up artifacts. I never understood why people thought they had green all over them anyway, unless slimer attacked Myers lol. I guess that is the only pic anyone ever looked at but I looked at them all and none of the rest had any green in regular lighting. So don’t waste your time dying your tub green, that stuff is really messy.
Here is a few pics and I used green an it really worked out. It’s all on the process that you do it. The green is mainly to make the brown darker Not to make it green!
I agree with you- its the artist take and method of creating the end results- which I think by my ‘eye’ standards - yours speak for themselves!
Very nice*
But if you are going by the refelction of the plant picture is not an accurate depiction of the coveralls themselves, you are recreating the way they look in the picture. None other pictures even have a hint of green. Green makes no sense and is not needed, a dark brown/black or black basecoat does the same thing as far as darkness. You are just covering the green up that should not be there anyway and is a waste of time in the end. But to each their own.
