I need a custom silicone mask made

[Atarian]

Wasn't sure where to post a request like this, Please feel free to relocate this if needed.

I have owned or tried every silicone Freddy Krueger mask available over the past few years. They are all amazing works of art and function like they should, but they are always way too big, and I have to wear a winter hat and additional padding underneath, which distorts the shape, or moves the eye holes too much. I have been taking notes for months now how the creation process would need to be modified to make a perfect fit without loose or baggy areas. I'm looking for someone that can tackle this by early October. All the standard features would need to be there, mesh around the holes to prevent tearing, ear holes, etc. But the core it is sculpted and molded on would have to be different than any that are being used.

Anyone?

Just a quick bump. I really need to get this done.

Im not exactly sure what your after. Are you looking to modify your existing mask with an inner padded layer or are you talking a completly new sculpt that would need to be form fit around your face (a life cast), molded, parts pulled in silicone and then painted?

If its the latter, your in for sticker shock.

Completely new sculpt. I have spoken to people who do silicone masks and got quotes in the past, so I'm prepared for the cost. They are all either too busy for commission pieces, or too burned out on Freddy at the moment, so I thought I'd throw this out there.

Are you looking to unload any of the "too big" masks?

As a matter of fact, I am going to sell the one I have. I'm gonna try to get pics when I get home.

I have had 2 of the spfx Freddy masks. Very nice masks, but same problem.

I found someone to do my commission, but I'm broke at the moment, lol.

Dumb question, and I apologize for litering in the thread, but I'll ask anyhow... have you considered / tried padding or filling the ones you have if they are a little too big? a shaped foam pad or something might fill in the mask a little in the back of the head to pull it taught withouth looking too bumpy for a few cents as opposed to a whole new sculpt?

 

[Atarian]

I pad them now by wearing a winter hat AND foam padding. makes it bobblehead large on me just for a tight fit. I'd rather have something custom made. So it's proportionately correct, and I can have input on the sculpt.

Well if the price on the one you have is better the buying new from SPFX I might be interested.

It certainly will be. I'll try for pics tonight. The one I'm selling isn't an spfx one though, I sold that one off months ago. This is the Part 2 style mask that fettster did.
