I was recently motivated to try creating my first leather mask. I wanted to combine tooling with shaping and embossing. This was my first attempt at embossing (the raven) and shaping something to this degree. It was also my first time using gold leaf. The wolf and the raven were my inspiration and this is the process and what it looks like finished. Feedback is always appreciated!

Very very cool! I really dig some of the masks I see you guys making. Has anyone ever done a tutorial on making masks?

Thats fantastic! Whats the former made from, ive been looking for something suitable to use as a former but cant find anything sturdy enough. I was thinking about making one with plaster or Herculite but can only find molds with expressions. The black and gold looks great for contrast.
