4/10
It's cool because I see red, and it holds somewhat ok in place. Also I can hear myself breathing like Dark Vador lol.
The fit is a bit odd and my field of vision is reduced by a lot in there, I can't wear it for very long before getting quite uncomfortable...
Oh, and people can't hear me talking when I'm wearing the mask, which is kind of a neutral point because it can make for funny situations
8.5/10
I feel very silly, very cool when I wear it. Love looking at it, love looking at pictures of me wearing it.
Although there are a bunch of impefections that don't bother me, except for the fact that the goggle lenses are very roughly attached..
I had a brief fixation on plague doctors and their masks, so I started to make this one, but then lost my motivation to continue until I got invited at a Halloween party, which was the perfect reason for me to finish it!
The color scheme isn't inspired by anything, except maybe the color of the lenses, I just kinda did the thing
It is unclear what it wants, maybe it's purposes are contradictory. That may be why it always seems to want to do me harm, but is very shy in doing so...
I found the paper clay recipe as well as the pattern for the mask and how to assemble it all at Wicked Aviary's channel!
