Mask-Maker's Questions...

Journal Entry: Sun Apr 20, 2008, 10:56 AM
  • Mood: Artistic
Hello everyone!!

Thank you to those who have been submitting their masks, I greatly appreciate your contributions to the Comm's Gallery.:)
To the rest of you, Please don't be shy to contribute your own work to the gallery. Please help this community to stay active and interesting by submitting your own masks and/or Mask-related questions/topics.

Thanks!!


:bulletred:I've been curious...Do you like these mask-related Q.'s and do you find them to be useful or interesting/informative?

:bulletred: I have decided to start allowing all styles of handmade masks. As long as they are handmade, original works of art, and can be worn or displayed.
I need to go through the Comm's Rules/Guidelines post and revise it to include these other styles of masks.

Now, I've been trying to come up with more mask-related Community Questions to help keep members active as well as to inform others. I've been enjoying the interesting answers I've been getting and greatly appreciate the involvement of various members'. But if you have some questions, just Note me with them and I'll post it.

:bulletred: I've been curious...what more would you, as a member, like to see take place in this community? I'm hoping to be able to get a paid subscription for this comm. this coming month. If anyone would like to come up with some nice Mask-themed CSS graphics for this Comm. I would love to see them. I really want to spiffy this place up soon, make it look professional!:)

-Please note me with your suggestions and ideas!!:D


Thank you and I look forward to reading your replies!:)

Awesome, I love your blue elephant mask -very Hindu-ish.:) I look forward to seeing any future masks you may make and congrats on the dozen masks for the ball, I hope you had a good time making those, I know a project that large can be stressful sometimes.
Thank you for the compliment on my masks, I appreciate it!:)

Thank you! Maybe I'll try to make a few more masks and then join up. I made about a dozen very small, simple ones for a local ball, and I'll be putting those up soon. Thank you for the invite! Your own masks and those in your favorites are just marvelous.

~Mask-Making-Artisans:iconMask-Making-Artisans: Mar 29, 2008, 11:18:45 AM
If you'd like I'll post this in the Comm's Journal so everyone will get it in their in-box, otherwise I'm not sure alot of people read the comments.

Or you could just approach various people personally for some help or a commission.

Let me know!:)

Hello there!

I have got a mask-problem and I hope you could help me:

I love foxes and I love to play "Live Action Role Play", called LARP, so I decidet to play the role of a fox-shaman in a fantasy-roleplay-world called Mythodea. To play this role I need a costume. I finally made the clothes and equipment by my own.

But: I need a foxmask! It is soooo difficult to create a foxmask which looks natural and which is made with foxfur. So I bought a foxfur but I haven't got the skills to build a foxmask by my own.

The mask should look like this ones [link] [link] but done with fur.

Can anybody help me and give me order to build that kind of mask? Or is there anybody who would build that mask for me in commission?

Please help me!
