So your a big Jason Fan too huh? and you need (or want) to make a Jason Costume. You came to the right place. For here you'll learn how to make your very own Jason Costume relatively cheaply. Oh it'll still cost you a pretty penny but good art often does but you don't mind a little hard work or spending a little cold hard frog skins to get the job done now do ya? And you love doing all the little fiddly bits and you're a stickler for detail I'll bet too.

   Well warm up the VCR and watch the whole series a few dozen times first just to get good and well acquainted with our big bad boy Jason Voorhees. If you are dating someone right now tell em to forget it, (I find the women folk just don't get our little artistic obsession.)
....I mean hey... Jason likes girls.... sure he likes em in pieces... but he likes girls I'd say.
You can guess the reaction I got can't you? As we were watching one of my favorite scenes where Jason takes a sleeping bag of screaming girl and drags her out of the tent to do what comes natural for him....
     Hmmm... Uh hum Well....

   Once you and your VCR are alone and you have watched the whole series from start to finish and are thoroughly engrossed with just how messy Jason is looking towards the end of the series.
Psssst!...Parts 6 onward are the best for costume details unless you are making the "Supper Cinchy Version." Awww! C'Mon ... Don't be a panty-waste.
