Best Mask Material?

This thread is archived.

  • So I want to make this mask and Ive been trying to decide whats the best way to do the yellow parts and i'm stumped. The biggest issue is I'm not sure what the best material to make it out of is. I was thinking a thin craft foam would work, but I'm not sure how I would go about making the pattern for that, nor if I could really get those really sharp edges around the eyes. Also, I can't imagine foam would breath very well and I like not suffocating.

    My second thought was to try sculpting it out of paper clay. I'm not an expert sculptor, and Im not sure how good of a job I could do with that one, but it might be worth trying.

    Any one else have any suggestions of how I can go about doing this, or at least what would be the best material to use for it?
