battlemunky Report post Posted October 12, 2020 Made this the year before last for the office Halloween party and won. $20 Starbucks gift card and bragging rights for the entire year was super worth it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

His instructions are to sew from the head towards to the point of the beak along the bottom join then from the tip to the eyes along the top join. He also does some very good instructional videos I've the pattern pieces cut out, I really must translate them onto leather Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maxdaddy Report post Posted October 14, 2020 (edited) Fun post! Here's my Halloween projects. My wife will be the plague nurse in the white mask and hat. I'll be the plague doctor wearing black half-mask and hat. I'll follow up with some full costume poses after the weekend. The leather is all 6-7 ounce veg-tan from Tandy. I get the white by applying 3 or 4 coats of cheap white shoe polish to the flesh side and then sealing with liquid floor wax. The black on the skull bag was obtained with vinegroon. The black on the half-mask is Fiebings pro dye with floor wax finish. Edited October 14, 2020 by maxdaddy Details Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AndrewWR Report post Posted October 18, 2020 Not just for halloween. This serial killer mask with interchangeable filters is great for enforcing social distancing. Nobody wants to be within 2 metres of this. A shout out to Hahn's Atelier for the free pattern. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNrrAuy8QOc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
battlemunky Report post Posted October 20, 2020 (edited) Couldn't stand it...had to make one. It's undyed, been contemplating tossing some color at it. In case anyone gets curious, that isn't a real bird. I'm a cube dweller when not working from home and have absurd things to make it suck less so I figured MacGuybird needed a plague doctor mask too. Nod to Tony See (dieselpunk.ro) for the hat and masks. Edited October 20, 2020 by battlemunky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
