Clone Wars Weequay pirate mask!!UPDATE:2 NEW CASTINGS

[SUPERprops]

Well I sculpted this while I was sick the past few days. They will be made out of silicone.
Please let me know what think.

 

[woodman]

I think it looks great!

I like it, but then I thought your ROTJ Weequay was amazing. Did the full costume ever get made, I would love something like that, any tips or pointers on parts etc would be cool, masks maybe? LOL.

 

[Muad Dib]

That looks like it would be really tight. Are you going to use DragonSkin silicone?

Yes, I just ordered a trial kit of the new Fx pro.

ROTJ Weequay??? I would love to give you tips, but I never made that one.

 

[Muad Dib]

I used DragonSkin for my Day of the Dead "Bub" appliance and it is awesome stuff!

Yeah, I think you are thinking of Darth Serberus who made a ROTJ Weequay. I am looking for one of those myself.

 

[SUPERprops]

Sweet!! can I ask how you molded it?

 

[Muad Dib]

You have to use ULTRACAL instead of the standard hydrocal used for making regular latex masks.

 

[SUPERprops]

I heard ULTRACAL works good but if you can use fiber-glass it's better, do you think this true?
Oh, do you mind telling me what paint you used?

 

[Muad Dib]

Never tried it but then again, I'm pretty old-school. LOL!

It was tinted with the dye made for DragonSkin and the rest was just latex mask greasepaint sealed with believe it or not, hairspray.

 

[SUPERprops]

Hairspray? Thats funny I've never heard of that before.

 

[Muad Dib]

It sets the greasepaint.
You could use the clear Krylon spray paint on a regular mask but since it was already applied to my face, the hairspray seemed a better choice.

[C1RCA]

[SUPERprops]

Thanks man! Hey, (if you know how) could you maybe photoshop some color onto it?

 

[C1RCA]
