Scaled Dragon Mask For A Masquerade Wedding

Thank you! I have to say, the impressions are quite a bit easier than cuts too, and I prefer the way they look for certain things. I didn't want to carve the entire face, not only because it would take a long time, but also because I wanted some contrast, with certain details standing out more than the rest.

Oh wow! That is really nice! I love the overall look and feel of the mask. The scales worked out beautifuly imo. Great job! spoton.gif

I got a custom order from a groom-to-be who would be having a masquerade wedding. He liked my existing Ram's Horned Dragon masks, but wanted more detailing in the face. Some of the best changes can come from a customer request! I've been meaning to add scale details to that design anyway, and this was the perfect time to do it.

The scales down the middle of the face, around the eyes, and along the jawline (as well as the horn details) were all carved, while the rest of the scales were embossed into the leather with a stylus.

The first pictures are of the wedding mask. The red one is the same design done for practice before the commissioned one.

Beautiful work. I like the way you carved some and not others to make them really stand out. Cheryl
