In my experience with an angle grinder I've found that the unit itself can get in the way a bit. Did you find that happening at all? Cause I'm imagining it would when you got to the inside most part of the mask (behind the eyes).
So I've been busy with a few other projects over the last month so I can make room for this one, but I've now glued up all of the foam pieces. Just used my dremel and a sanding bit to chamfer the edges so they glue nicely with a solid surface for the contact adhesive I used. Just need to trim...
That Deku mask looks spot on, you are going great!
Might I ask about your technique for bowling out the masks? I'm quite intrigued. Are you using one of the round carving tools (sort of like a chisel) used on a lathe? Haven't done much turning myself and don't know what its called, so excuse my...

Bringing this thread back to show off this. Got round to getting it done in the last two days or so and I'm really happy with how it came out. I'm happy to answer questions on my paints,etc but the pictures...
I don't have the foam on me right now, but if my memory serves me right it's only a few millimetres thick. Bought it for two other projects and I just happen to have enough to do this :)
i do do see what you mean about them being wearable. Obviously in the games they literally float over links...
More work done on this tonight, I put masking tape over the cardboard frame and began to make templates for the foam. Then I scribed lines in sharpie for where I wanted to cut and coloured over parts of the tape in highlighter so I could see where the sections were. I then cut the pieces with a...
Thanks, supermaRiio for that comment,I hadn't really thought about making it wearable to be honest, but the more I think about it I probably will. It wouldn't be that much extra work and it would be a cool thing to cosplay with. I've seen your wooden mask floating around the internet as well...
I'm not usually one to start threads, but I've noticed that when I start a thread I'm more likely to finish a project. This is what I'm gonna do here. Having been playing Majora's Mask on my 3DS, and soon to get to my Nintendo 64 cartridge I thought it would be cool to have a display themed...
Re: Doctor Who 8th Doctor Alt Sonic Screwriver 3d Printed Model Kits (Finishing Threa
Wanted to kick in with my progress on this. I've done some sanding (with 600 grit and brown paper bags) which got rid of most of the horrible printing lines. I didn't sand some places like the top piece under...
Got mine today Doc. Tis a thing of beauty, sooo glad I got in on this. Hopefully all the trouble with shapeways was worth it for you in the end, because it certainly was for me. Great work dude!
