MHolzer Report post Posted April 7, 2008 Since there seems to be at least a dozen mask makers here, I thought I'd ask what you use to mould your masks on? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomBanwell Report post Posted April 7, 2008 I use plaster forms (Commedia del arte) or nothing at all (Bulldog), relying on the pattern for the shape. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drac Report post Posted April 7, 2008 I use a form that I made from the casing that a halloween mask came in. the casing was the same as the mask so I poured resin into it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leerwerker Report post Posted April 7, 2008 I attended a class by Alex Ortega, and after we cast our own faces, we made our final molds from something called "Densite" (spelling unknown). Very very hard dense plaster that takes the repeated brass hammer blows to shape the mask. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
