Darth Maul Custom Goalie Mask

[Submariner]

Newcomer here and this is my first very humble attempt at creating anything. I just took an off-the shelf street hockey goalie mask and painted the Darth Maul tatoos on it, seemed like a cool idea at the time. Not much skill invovled, but it was hand painted by eye, no templates or measuring. It does look pretty menacing with full goalie gear on, it would go good with a New Jersey Devils uniform, I'm imagining.

Hope you get a kick out of it.

My next project is Iron Man Mark I.

I thought about that, but I think one of the reasons this worked so well is that I had a basic human " face " to work with. The modern style masks have the cage and different shape, so you don't have the face for a base. I do have one and may try it though.

Thanks to everyone for the kind comments.

Hand painted by eye? Very nice. I wouldn't be able to eyeball it like that.

If you look at it up close its actually fairly rough. No taping, but I have a pretty steady hand. The raised ribs that fan out into the forehead were a pain!

Nice job! thumbsup

I have a Boba Fett ice hockey goalie mask that I bought off of a minor league (maybe CHL) goalie about 10 years ago. It's an interesting part of my Fett memorabilia. :cool

That's awesome. I'd like to see that and a Vader one on the ice at the same time.

I'll try and find the pics. They're somewhere on my 500GB hard drive.

It's not designed to look like Boba's helmet (though that would be cool!), but rather is painted kinda like a mural. There is a pic of Boba on each side of the mask, against a desert/canyon background, and it fades to stars/space at the top of the mask. The back plate of the mask has a bantha skull airbrushed onto it. :thumbsup

I have played ice hockey over the last 10 years in the DFW area. I have seen two (2) Star Wars themed goalie helmets. One was a Darth Maul and the other was space battle (death star 2).

Here it is from all sides... Again, it's not painted to simulate Boba's helmet, but is a "mural" type of painting...
