ATLA: Blue Spirit Mask

Description

Even though I'm just submitting it now, I've had this done since May.

I give you the Blue Spirit's mask from Avatar: the Last Airbender! Worn by Zuko to protect his identity as a fire nation rogue.

The base is a basic masquerade face mask. I used Crayola model magic clay applied directly to the plastic for the accents and to adjust the shape. Painted with acrylics (I had to adjust the color a couple of times) and after a while it started to crack, which you can see in every picture except the center one. I edited it in Photoshop to make it look nice and smooth. Turns out acrylic doesn't stick to smooth plastic very well. :P The "ears" and "crown" pieces are posterboard hot glued to the rim of the mask. I sewed the head straps and then hot glued them to the inside of the mask. There are pieces of black fabric behind the eyes, which actually don't obstruct vision very much at all. =)

It's fully wearable and lightweight- only thing is there's not much ventilation because i had to cover the nose holes with clay.

I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. It'd be nice if I had some swords to go with it... kukuku.

best version of a recreation of the mask so far.
