This is what I been working on for the last couples of days. I want to replicate the costume of General Kael from Willow. I started to make the most dificult part of the costume, the visor from the helmet. I have started to fit some theets on it and I think it looks great!

Man that looks so cool! :thumbsup This was one of my favorite movies when I was little and that mask used to scare the crap outta me.
 
Thanks guys!! I am really exited about this project. This is my favorite movie caracter with Darth Vader. And they prety much look alike. General Kael is a medieval Darth Vader. Anyway, I will upload more pictures very soon!

Hahaha love this. :thumbsup


I second Rusty's question. It'd be cool to see a run of these done!
 
Yes, I will make some copy if you are interested. I am going to buy more sculpey tonight to complete the sculpture. It should be ready to cast in about a week or so.

I have to make the helmet underneath and the horns after that, but it should be alot less chalenging to sculpt.
 
What kind of price would we be looking at per mask?


I dont know. It should'n be that expensive. Once I did the mold for all the part and kill some racoon for the fur:love, I will be in position to say more.

Yesterday, I did not have time to go buy some sculpey, so I sarted working on the forehead ornament instead. It is almost finish now and it looks pretty good!
 
Finished!!!! Any critiques before I make the mold?

looks awesome...i love willow and kael was awesome...i always wanted his helmet

maybe you can include photos of the movie version, so we can see the difference. It will help pointing things out

Good idea! Here are some pic of him in all his glory and a picture of the original helmet witch look a little bit worn out after all those years.

It looks to me that there was two version of the mask made in the movie. One with heavy weathering effect and one who was grayish with almost no weathering effect. The grayish one was the one they destroyed when Kael recive a hit from MadMardigan. They seem to switch helmet quite a bit during the movie. They had problem with falling teeth I think.
