Riding Mask - Your thoughts

Recommended Posts

American Flag Bandana Mask

5-6oz leather that I tooled, then soaked in a mixture of 1 gallon hot water from faucet and 1 cup ammonia. I let it sit for 5 minutes, then pat dried wet from surface and let it sit for 15 minutes before I started to form over a life size plastic skull I got on eBay. Once it dried I slicked the edge and used Angelus Acrylic paints. Now I will tape off edge and cover with newspaper then spray back with headliner glue and put 1mm neoprene for the lining and trim. Then rivet straps and ready to roll.

Incredible idea and expert execution!  

Question: Is this supposed to fit your face?

Thank you msdeluca...much appreciated. This will fit the face. I'll have more pics this week. I ran outta headliner spray glue. Picking up more tomorrow. There are two adjustable straps, one for the crown of the head and one for around the back of the neck.

It looks awesome. I'm curious about the length of it riding comfortably though. Keep us posted.

Thank you bikermutt. Much appreciated. Length isn't a problem. Sits out far enough from the face, and protects the throat all the way down to the clavicle. I'll have some better detailed pics when I get it done.

Needs a little cleanup. Straps are adjustable for that perfect fit.

That looks really sharp with good detail to it. I would have to try it before I rode with it on, (fogging up glasses),but you did a great job on it. Thanks for posting it.

Thanks David, I appreciate the compliment...the way I have the padding/lining, your breath will not come up through the eyes. Breathing is easy, all air comes in from below and exits the same way.
