Jin-Saotome bats a severed head out of the park with his new Splatterhouse custom
by Jason Millward on 11/02/2009 0 comments

When the TurboGrafx-16 video game system hit in the late 80's, I definitely took notice. Being a Nintendo-guy, I was hardly going to beg my parents for one, though. That is, until commercials started airing during my afternoon cartoons showing a hulking Jason Vorhies clone violently killing monsters in a horror setting. While I still have yet to own a TurboGrafx system (a mistake I still intend to rectify), Splatterhouse still holds a solid place in my nostalgic heart.

It seems obvious to me that custom wizard-master Jin Saotome must feel similarly. He's just put the finishing touches on a custom version of Rick Taylor, the buff (cut, ripped, chiseled, and JACKED) hero of Splatterhouse, A movie version Hulk figure and Street Fighter 's Dan from SOTA both gave their lives and body parts to bring Rick to life. A well-sculpted head and fantastic paint-job complete the piece. We've got more shots of this great figure in our gallery. Be sure to check out Jin's site for even more poses as well as a tutorial on the painting techniques used to complete Rick.
