The Orc Mask In action! Photo set 1 My LARP Halloween Mask

So the mask is done and it was time to test it. I needed a costume and a friend of mine Edward had all that I needed and more. He is in SCA and the costume he put together looked like i could have walked off the set of  Game of Thrones. My wife is a Photographer/Nurse so she and I went out to Hart Park, Bakersfield, CA to take pictures of this beast of a mask! we took over 200 pictures I will be posting about 5 each week here.

Painting The Latex Orc Mask. (Part 3: Detail and More Color)

Painting The Latex Orc Mask. (Part 3: Detail and More Color) again with the same paint mix as before we open up the airbrush so we can get some nice mottling.  Then we go in with some medium level coverage to add highlights and layers of color.

After that we do some slight yellow green. and then prep the eyes and teeth by painting them white. after that paint the teeth and eyes with both airbrush and by hand. Next wet coat!

Painting The Latex Orc Mask. (Part 2: Oil paints)

Rubber cement, Naptha, and oil paint. make up this highly volatile paint. (warring I'm not responsible for ANYTHING you do). The mixture has a huge amount of vapors, this requires you to wear a respirator mask when using. It is highly flammable NEVER use around an open flame.
