Restoring a Deadite .. the title speaks for itself:

The above artist/restorer Tom Spinade is at it again, this time working on a screen used Evil Ash mask:

He does some pretty fantastic work. I have a some pieces from AoD that could use restoration.

I wonder what he charges for his services?

His restoration on the Hellraiser 'Barbie' mask in the above link is awesome considering it's pictured literally crumbling to dust!  :bigsmile..

I'd love to see some pics of your AOD bits and pieces ..

I second that.
 
Most of them are in storage, but there are two items I'd like restored.

One is this deadite mask. It's become a little mis-shaped around the neck. I'd like it properly mounted & protected to preserve it, since I don't think anyone will ever wear it again.

The other is this stop-motion skeleton puppet. You can see this little guy digging up deadites in the cemetery, or charging the castle with the battering ram. He's taken quite a beating as the previous owner did not take very good care of him. He could really use a fresh coat of paint, as well as a stand. Here he is in a recent rematch with Ash.

:bigsmile ....... Thanks for the pics eViL DeAdiTe ... they don't look in that bad condition!
 
The mask looks ok, but it's showing some signs of deterioration. I want it properly stuffed, touched up, and preserved, before it gets any worse. The rubber is beginning to harden in some spots.

The skeleton doesn't look so bad in the photo, but it's in rough shape and looks pretty bad up close. I would like it cleaned up to more closely resemble one of his brothers that recently popped up on Youtube:
