TOTS just acquired the official "Halloween 78" license from Rubie's. The new H1 mask is going to be a fresh Justin Mabry sculpt. I'm crossing my fingers for real hair (mohair or camel) and not the shag gorilla carpet that makes the Elrod and Hospital masks so sad. I'm glad I just bought 2 new airbrushes and a crap-load of paint...
Hey guys! So I am getting a ton of the same questions on here and I just wanted to refer to Nick Mulpaganos dvd. He explains everything perfectly! There was about 4 hours of footage I had to cut out of this to make it shorter.😊
ReelGalAmanda - I was inspired by you, I saw this video months ago. I bought Nick's DVD's & just got an airbrush & compressor. I'm going to start practicing converting TOTS masks, then sculpt my own Kirk. BIG thanks to you!! BIG thanks to Nick M @ Handiboystudios, for sharing his expertise with us!! Very generous of him!! I was binge watching TESTED & your videos tonight.
Crazy how much the eye cuts have evolved over the last 44 years. The ends mask eye holes are so different than anything else out there imo. The outsides of them tend to slope downwards slightly.
Awesome video! Didn't realize there was so much work that goes into a seemingly simple mask. A good reminder to always take a closer look at the details.
This looks absolutely incredible! The ToT paint job has always bothered me because the amount of flesh tones on the neck and under the nose. It’s such a harsh line as well. Bringing the flesh tone lower on the neck and blending it well makes it look so much more accurate. I do have a question though...is there a reason why there’s a large portion of flesh tone going up the right side of his face? I don’t remember ever seeing that in the movie, but if it’s for artistic flare I’m into it. =]
I understand that people want to keep the tags for the worth of it with tags. But if you covert it it has no value as what it was and the tag gets in the way
I used naptha to prep my H2 myers for a repaint and now the neck and one of the eyes have buckled and curled.up on itself and I cant seem to figure out what happened? HELP!
amazing thank you....just purchased the h20 mask,not the version 2! And need to sort the hair out...You have given me the confidence to try it!! Although trying to find the hair is a pain!!!
Lowkey crushing on you 😊🤓❤, haha your stuff is brilliant! I recently discovered your channel last night and I think the work you are doing fantastic! I can't wait to see what you have in store for future videos!
Wow. Great stuff Amanda. I re did my TOTS H40 and was a nervous wreck doing it the entire time..but I think I nailed it close. Used that outdoor promo pic they were using of James Jude C. Great job, again.
Thanks for this video. I'm getting an Elrod which is the same sculpt and going to do this to it. I would like to see you give one of these a Halloween 2 look sometime.
Loved this video so much!!! I ordered a dvd set from Nick Mulpagano (handiboy.com) & I’m gonna try to sculpt a kirk & mold it. YOU inspired me with confidence to try it!!! Thanks so much for making these videos!!!
I do wonder, was the Tramer mask a new one? As overall it seemed in better shape, no pun intended, than the original one and kinda curious why they didn’t just make a new Shape mask as well?
Awesome job... Got my self a elrod mask today that I'm going to try and overhaul as I'm a big halloween fan... Wondered if you had any tips for me I basically want to just weather the original mask and add more detail like the jowel lines mouth etc and the cut and style the hair... 1. Do I need to rub the mask down with rubbing alcohol? 2. To dry brush the detail in the lines do I need to mix acrylic with liquid latex? 3. is the weathering just acrylic and water or liquid latex too And finally do I need to apply anything when finished as protection? Thank you hope you can help would be much appreciated and I'll show you when finished... 👍🏼😊
Amazing job Amanda! You knocked this outta the park!! I too have purchased a trick or treat studios mask an was wanting to convert it as well. Seen some of nicks videos, and now seeing yours is making me definitely want to try a hand in this.. If you don't mind me asking where did you buy your mo hair from.. I been looking into purchasing some but not happy with the amount for the price... Thank you and keep up the awesome work!
I’ve done a few conversions, and I always have issues with my airbrush choking up and clogging, it’s a dual action airbrush and for the compressor it goes to 48+ psi, should I use a single action instead? Also I verify the latex/paint combo is skim milk consistency… running out of ideas.
I think your work is awesome! I have a H1 TOTS mask and I would like to make some shadowing on the face. Should I use Naphta before adding acrylic paintings on it?
It looks really good, my only mask, even though it is a good mask, is the H20 mask. But the one you made looks screen acurate. Amazing job. Well done. 👍
about the white spray paint you used. You said off white, but can you be more specific? What make (Krylon?), what color (white? fish belly white? Titanium White?) and what finish (matte? flat? semi gloss?) . thanks so much!
Great job! Currently working on my tots elrod mask and was wondering what type of hair you used and where I could get it. It looks very authentic to the original.
I actually looked up what colors to mix for a fish belly white and apparently "fish belly" is a racial slur against white people. Besides that... I do have a question. Would crepe hair work if I can't find any mohair?
Great job! I have an old Don Post Studios Michael Myers mask that I'm trying to customize. I believe it has mohair. I could be wrong. Anyway, can you use regular hair dye if you wanted to change the color?
Just do it the way they did in 78. Take your mask re spray the mask white. I mean literally just sprag it with a can of spray paint.Then spray the hair black and then spray a brown over it. Adjust the eyes if you wish throw it around and weather it naturally and you'll have a mint looking myers mask.
Lenny Micheloni But then you wouldn't have the movie accurate flesh tones, and the spray paint on the mask would eventually crack and chip away. And for the movie version, they used brown hair and spray painted some black on it, but not too much.
I think I might get that mask and do this to however instead of making it look exactly like the original I'll just make it look like my version of a "perfect" Michael Myers mask should look
It’s funny how people go through so much trouble to recreate the mask, dying hair, and painting. When with the original Halloween they did it with spray paint and scissors I believe.
I’m making mine like the original was made a Kirk hair dye scissors and black and white spray paints the Kirk from tots of course because I’m on a budget
Great job on the mask!! I was wondering, did that DVD you mentioned detail the best way to hair the mask? I wanted to add some more hair to my TOTS H2.

For the hair, I purchased MOHAIR ROVING on eBay!
thanks for telling where to get it!
i found out that if spray the blonde hair on a Tramer mask with L'OREAL Paris Light Brown Magic Root Cover up works great!!!
You used the dead meat intro music!!! :D
vicecitys IKR
Must be public domain music?
ObsessiveMatt yea
@@TellItAnimated I Love Your Vids!
@Vertoxian That I am!
I'm really impressed to see how a simple mask without any emotion in it can be so iconic

Love the video and thanks for the tips! But, 5:48 “Welcome to the kill count, I’m James A. Janisse...”
Hearing that song makes me so happy Dead Meat/James is amazing
Anyone know what song that is? I notice that “dead meat” intro too. Is it a generic song or royalty free track?
GameZ,Filmz, And Reviews thanks
IKR
“ and today we are covering the kill counts of Halloween 1978 “
The music in the background is dead meats intro music
Omg you’re right!
I had to come watch this video again for Christmas. It just wouldn't be the holidays without it.
I don't ever comment on videos, but I had to say that this is fantastic. You killed it.
so glad you enjoyed it!

The 1978 mask right next to your ben trimmer mask Halloween 1970 mask look perfect
Great job, Amanda. The life size Myers at the end looks fantastic
I understand that people want to keep the tags for the worth of it with tags. But if you covert it it has no value as what it was and the tag gets in the way
THE SHOCK MONSTER if you convert it like this, then the mask arguably becomes worth much more.
You’re the best making mask and Halloween

❤️❤️❤️LOVE YOUR VIDEO!!! You are like Nick Mulpagano's apprentice!!!! So cool!!!!❤️😊❤️❤️
I used naptha to prep my H2 myers for a repaint and now the neck and one of the eyes have buckled and curled.up on itself and I cant seem to figure out what happened? HELP!
6 seconds in and OMG these Masks are Huge!
amazing thank you....just purchased the h20 mask,not the version 2! And need to sort the hair out...You have given me the confidence to try it!! Although trying to find the hair is a pain!!!
Both are great. Did a fantastic job. Really love the paint job on your first mask you did. Awesome work.
She’s awesome very patient with her work very cool👍
Lowkey crushing on you 😊🤓❤, haha your stuff is brilliant! I recently discovered your channel last night and I think the work you are doing fantastic! I can't wait to see what you have in store for future videos!
Thank you!!!😁😁😁
Of course! My pleasure 😁
Awesome conversion of your Tramer mask into a Myers mask.
This is so fuckin good!!! Wow I’m very impressed! Great job Amanda this came out phenomenal
Wow. Great stuff Amanda. I re did my TOTS H40 and was a nervous wreck doing it the entire time..but I think I nailed it close. Used that outdoor promo pic they were using of James Jude C. Great job, again.
This channel deserves much more, anyways great job! It's really accurate.
5:39 Hi this is James a janese welcome to the kill count
Jco92 I THINK WERE DEAD MEAT
😂
The mask looks gorgeous, good job.
The white color is fish belly white
Thanks for this video. I'm getting an Elrod which is the same sculpt and going to do this to it. I would like to see you give one of these a Halloween 2 look sometime.
Its the same sculps yes, but the Elrod mask is ticker.
What would you charge to convert an H2 to an H1?
Great job! It's nice to see the process so I know what I'd like to replicate or do differently. I have an Elrod on the way that I plan on customizing.
Very good video and I noticed that you use the same music that Dead Meat does at 5:41
That looks so sick
Loved this video so much!!! I ordered a dvd set from Nick Mulpagano (handiboy.com) & I’m gonna try to sculpt a kirk & mold it. YOU inspired me with confidence to try it!!!
Thanks so much for making these videos!!!
You almost got the mask good work
Looks nice..,What color is Myers hair in Halloween 1? I see black hair and sometimes people have the brown,confusing
Looks amazing! Awesome detail! Excellent job 👏🏼
I do wonder, was the Tramer mask a new one? As overall it seemed in better shape, no pun intended, than the original one and kinda curious why they didn’t just make a new Shape mask as well?

Very well done!! Looks amazing very life like at the end.. very talented.
Amazing job Amanda! You knocked this outta the park!! I too have purchased a trick or treat studios mask an was wanting to convert it as well.

I been looking into purchasing some but not happy with the amount for the price... Thank you and keep up the awesome work!
Hell yeah!!! That looks great! Well done 👍
Little tip for doing eyecuts, never reference a shot of a replica mask or a shot of the hero mask being worn as it throws off the real size :)
i have heard that is was fish bell white now Tommy Lee Wallace said it is Appliance White.
He was just describing the paint, there's no paint called 'fish-belly white'. It's just ACE appliance white
Great job. Love the mask on the life size 👍 looks awesome 🎃
Amanda. Can I spray paint the hair instead of ripping it off. Because I want to do it like Tommy Wallace when he did the original mask
Amazing work well done the mask looks great!!!
Eyes are to dame big!!!🤣🤣🤣 Rush hour
Do you do this for other people? I have a TOTS Hospital and Elrod I wanted to convert but failed hard on my Elrod.
I’ve done a few conversions, and I always have issues with my airbrush choking up and clogging, it’s a dual action airbrush and for the compressor it goes to 48+ psi, should I use a single action instead? Also I verify the latex/paint combo is skim milk consistency… running out of ideas.
Just to clarify, Tramer is referring to the kid who was killed in Halloween 2 because they thought it was Michael, right??
best78 mask ive seen in long time i keep trying but keep messing up on eyes lol
Excellent job .. really good work
I think your work is awesome! I have a H1 TOTS mask and I would like to make some shadowing on the face. Should I use Naphta before adding acrylic paintings on it?
It looks really good, my only mask, even though it is a good mask, is the H20 mask. But the one you made looks screen acurate. Amazing job. Well done. 👍
ngl i love the blonde one

Aww please make me it! I'll pay lol
That is cool I would like to one like that
Great work , what did you use to stick the hair on and did you seal your work afterwards
Love the conversion Amanda! I never understood why Trick or Treat never made a Michael mask look like this!
After rewatching... the first attempt looks remarkably like the stunt mask used in Halloween... it had poofier hair and larger eye cuts.
Amazing work and great video!!
Hey if I haven’t got any naphtha to rub the mask down with what else can I use?
Great job! I have an old Don Post Studios Michael Myers mask that I'm trying to customize. I believe it has mohair. I could be wrong. Anyway, can you use regular hair dye if you wanted to change the color?
Love it !! Thanks for this video

Great job, beautiful mask!!! Only a question: where can I find the hairs for the conversion? Thank you very much!
When will you upload the Kirk mask conversion?
ZR Productions she’s making a lot cuz she keeps on messing up when she makes a good one that’s when she’s gonna post it
So it’s gonna take forever
Awesome conversion!!
Great video. How much hair would I need for the mask
I think I might get that mask and do this to however instead of making it look exactly like the original I'll just make it look like my version of a "perfect" Michael Myers mask should look
Great job!
Nice masks
Great job that mask looks great. Looks like a $300 mask 👍
Awesome vid!
Wow great job thumbs up 👍 nick is a great guy friends with him on Facebook
wonder what happened to the real ben mask from h2
I would like too know we're I can buy that say exact blue shop suit!
Great work. What nozzle size did you use on your airbrush, what colors did you mix to get it offwhite, and what glue did you use for the hair ?
I used contact cement. I actually dont remember what size nozzle I used though.
You did an amazing job! I'm just curious if you might be accepting Purchase Requests? Again, great job and Thanks Much!
Looks amazing!
It’s funny how people go through so much trouble to recreate the mask, dying hair, and painting. When with the original Halloween they did it with spray paint and scissors I believe.
KleverStudios I have a plastic hair and it isn’t even full it has a strap I need a new one
Beautiful work
How do you mix the color "fish belly white"?
You should try it with the 1978 mask
I like that mask
How much do you charge to do this conversion?
Great video!
Very cool and helpful video
Awesome Work!
Which mask has a tighter fit this one or the Elrod mask??
Is it possible that you can convert a Ben Tramer mask into the H1for me? I feel like I would screw it up. Willing to pay$.
I’m making mine like the original was made a Kirk hair dye scissors and black and white spray paints the Kirk from tots of course because I’m on a budget
Great job on the mask!! I was wondering, did that DVD you mentioned detail the best way to hair the mask? I wanted to add some more hair to my TOTS H2.
Collin Boddie yes! Nick goes into extensive details on how to hair the mask!
Does the weathering and dry brushing also require latex to be mixed with the paint?
