composite effects silicone masks; opinions?

[n0regret5]

As an option for the Brisbane Zombie Walk in October, I'm considering getting 'Crusty the Zombie' mask from Composite Effects. It looks damn cool, and (IMO) the price doesn't seem too bad.

Crusty the Zombie « Composite Effects | Custom Theatrical Props, Special Makeup Effects, Silicone Masks, Foam Latex Appliances, Mold Making & Casting, Animatronics, Model Sculpting

While I do have experience in making and casting my own masks, I have no experience in Silicone, and I have no idea where to begin looking for supplies in Brisbane (any Brisbane guys got advice?...), I would still rather buy a mask that has been finished (though i may punch some hair or something later).

So, anyone had any experience with these? good/bad/indifferent? Thanks in advance

I have never owned one but I have seen more than a few in person. Really nice masks and made very well. Power mesh is embedded within the slicone at all major stress points so you don't really have to worry about any tearing. Really comfortable to wear.

take care,
