Predator Suit Paint Finished

The Devil’s Workshop has been invaded by a Predator! Just finished is this full-sized Predator complete with armor. I spent the better part of the summer months methodically working on finishing, foaming and painting this Predator mask, suit and armor. The paint scheme is based on Steve Wang’s amazing paint job from the Predator 2 movie. Here are a few pics. I’ll be posting a page that specifically showcases the entire process from start to finish.

Predator Hands and Feet

These hands and feet are the first parts of a full body suit and armor to be finished and shipped out to the PlainFieldButcher in Ohio. I’ll be posting pics as the full suit is finished!

Predator Restoration Pt. 3

The final set of images in the process. This past Saturday I finished painting all 44 dreads and the teeth. Today, all the pieces were assembled. First, the teeth were added. Next, the dreads. Finally, the quills!

Predator Restoration Pt. 2

After casting up the eight needed dreads and patching up all the holes, it was time to begin painting!
  • The first photo shows the first set of dreads I cast up.
  • Next, the black undercoating is applied
  • The base coat color is sponged on, then airbrushed on.
  • The next several photos show the inks being applied to establish the overall pattern.

Predator Restoration Pt. 1

I had the pleasure of being asked to restore a Predator mask by thePlainfieldButcher. The sculpture by Bob Bagy is really beautiful. The mask is in rough shape being partially painted, full of super glue, full of holes and rips, and missing 8 dreadlocks.

  • The first picture shows the scale of the mask next to a Creepster and a few Demon Seeds.
  • The next pic shows the handful (literally) of super glue I pulled off it.
  • Next, I removed all the dreads and labeled them and the head. In addition, the dreads and head had to be patched and seamed.
  • The teeth needed to be pulled and clean also.
  • Finally, I made molds of 4 dreads to cast up the missing 8.
I’ll post more updates when I start to paint this bad-boy!
