Hey /v/ for those who don't know me I make masks from video games. Can we have a good mask thread for some inspiration? What mask would you want to see made?
>>380925294
well, what do you know, i make masks from video games, too.
>>380925573
That actually looks awesome, great job man. I finished this one not long ago.
Lil' porkchop mask please
I would like to see a keaton mask or the mask of truth from zelda
how about this mask, my mask making friends
>>380925786
>>380925776
DESU I'm surprise neither of these were done, I've seen some Keaton masks but they were pretty cheap looking.
>>380925642
Fucking sweet, dude.
One of my favourite things i ever made, is this Nuka Cola themed T45-B Helmet
>>380925969
Not bad at all, what medium do you primarily work in?
>>380925294
Nihilus has a pretty badass mask.
Ever tried making majora mask from legend of zelda?
>>380926092
I made one years ago but the mold broke and i gave up on making a new one. I was nearly pulling my hair out making it symmetrical.
Why do you not construct the best mask in the universe, my disciple? Is it your guilt?
>>380926269
My biggest concern making the mask is there are a lot of thin and skinny parts that could break pretty easy.
>>380925294
how do you make them? carving or plaster?
>>380926458
Most of my masks are sculpted using clay, molded and then casted in a resin that is reinforced by aluminum.
>>380925786
i like that one.
I'm gonna make that one.
But that'll take a long time.
I'll not be able to post it in the thread
>>380926054
I like to use modeling clay (like in pic related) and then mold it to cast the mask in fiberglass, for the most part.
>>380926628
IS THAT A JIMMY JOHNS REFERENCE
>>380926628
Have you tried working with non sulphur clays? It can be reused and you can really get great details with it.
I always found the design of majora mask giant's mask really cool. Make one fagget. Also check this 5
Why not prepare for The Evil Within 2 anon?
Oh hey it's this guy again.
Have you ever made the stock Warcraft Troll voodoo mask aka pic related?
>>380926861
That's actually not a bad idea. Beat other people to the punch. I've been making whole costumes recently so I could do the whole thing.
>>380926970
DESU I don't think I was ever asked but it wouldn't be hard at all.
>>380926790
I have, as a matter of fact, my clay of choice is super sculpey, though i have heard good things about monster clay, not available in my country, unfortunately.
Btw that you mention sulfur based clay, if you ever do make a model out of it, never use silicone to mold it. that's a mistake, i will not repeat, i'll tell you that much.
>>380927175
Ahh I never use sulphur clay, only non sulphur. Chavant NSP is my end all for clays.
>>380925294
>>380925294
hate to be this autistic but you're not supposed to carve the mouth and teeth, just the hole
>>380927306
You can find a lot of fairly cheap metal ones on ebay.
>>380925294Got a website?
>>380925294
Hey its maskanon.
how you been doing mate ?
>>380927654
To get the effect though, the persons lips would need to be taped back and would be very painful.
>>380927732
I post on Fb @ walridercosplay but I have an etsy @walridercreations. FB is easier to contact if you want anything specific. >>380927853
Busy, buying a house at the end of July so making bulk orders.
You got a pretty cool hobby anon.
How about the mask from hollow knight?
What about Rubick from Dota2? Simple but Doto fans will flip shit.
>>380928049
Thanks buddy, not entirely sure the mask would be translated well due to its weird shape.
>>380928094
Not a bad idea, currently making juggs mask for someone atm.
>>380928094
good idea, also.
will make
>>380928021
alright, you have a good point and I guess I wouldn't even have recognized it without them
I need to move out and buy a bigger place so I can fill it with masks and helmets
>>380928785
A lot of people have bought them to wear but a good portion just have them hanging on a wall.
>>380928498
Nice.
Do you ever do monster/horror masks? If not, you should.
>tfw no talent
>>380928942
I worked in hollywood doing masks/prosthetics for tv and film but the work was erratic and I hated CA.
>>380929002
It's all practice, just give it a try.
>>380929002
>talent iswriting
>can not turn it into anything worthwhile; shall forever remain a hobby
>can not immediately show peers like drawing, singing or impressions
Life is suffering.
>>380929553
I know I know I get asked this every time and I swear ill make it soon.
one that can be worn would be awesome
>>380929359
>spend years sticking to a project until the end
>people read it in 2 hours
life is too short for this shit
call me boring, but I've liked Dimentio's mask motif.
>>380929778
I'm terrible at writing anything coherent so you got me there.
I have a mask fetish and I need you to tell me how to make masks
>>380930219
nobody make this pos mask
>>380930354
Get some not sulphur clay and just play with it. Get a head armature and sculpt the shape over top, then mold it and cast it. There are many different ways to do it but that's a good start.
>>380930412
Never Ever
Mine's a simple one, but I always loved it when I played; Goblin masks from Ragnarok Online. I literally farmed HOURS at a time just to get every mask they could drop. Pic related was my favorite one of the bunch, named "Surprised Mask". It's nothing fancy, nothing extremely detailed or memorable, but it holds a place in my gaming heart since it was my first cosmetic item in any video game that I actually earned from playing. I had many gifted to me from friends or bought from other players, but this was the first one I got by myself.
>I make masks from videogames
Make an exception
