I really, really wan tto make a mushroomhead mask, I have already made one, but it dosnt look very good. I was wondering if anybody could help me on how to approach the task of making a mask. The masks I want to make are any of these. http://www.mushroomhead.com/images/individuals/1.jpg http://www.mushroomhead.com/images/individuals/5.jpg http://www.mushroomhead.com/images/individuals/6.jpg Those are the ones I want to make the most. For the first one, for the dreadlock things, I thought of just buying pipes and cutting them up, as thats what it looks like he did. For the Second one, buy a pig mask, and manipulate it to make it look like that. And for the third, pretty straight forward. This is my mask so far, http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v629/androidkaita/MushroomheadMask.jpg
to make something with such detail as those, you may have to buy latex and make them yourself. i am a huge halloween freak, so i kinda know a thing or two about masks. i know for a fact that slipknots masks were not origional, but transformed. the main singers mask started off a plain latex mask, but then literally destroyed it. the guy with the jesters mask is actually an old jester mask that party city one had...etc just goof around with stuff. an army thrift store would possibly carry helmets, gas masks and stuff that you can turn into something.
Thanks for the advice, but how would I "destroy" a latex mask? I alread made a mushroomhead mask. Its just the noral X face mask, red X's and White face, but I want to make it better, like the ones above. Ill try and get a picture uploaded. Ok, its in the first post
burn it, tear it, stain it..etc. your mask actually looks awesome. just a little paint and its ready to kick ass!
Thanks, it is a very brittle thin plastic mask though, I dont think I can do much to it without breaking it completely
I tried melting the mask around the mouth to see if i could close the mouth so that there is no hole in there, but it didnt really work, its pretty much the same as before.
