What did you make the mask out of?

 

[Sluis Van Shipyards]

[Wes R]

Looks great. Do you have a fan in it to help circulate the air?

 

[SemperBourne]

Thanks, I'm glad you guys like it. It is made of polyester resin, backed with glass, a nice tight 2 layers, no fan yet, working out the bugs, fogging is an issue, breathing not so much, it is quite easy to breath in this mask. it wraps around your head like a real gas mask over the ears, the helmet is a seprate piece. I made 1 other for a friend who has a larger head, so I threw it in the oven for about 15 min @ 180 degrees Farenheight. and took it out and flared it out to fit his skull and then cooled it with water, BAM!!! fits like a glove. so it really diddnt effect the way it fit with the helmet with the adjustment to the mask.

What did you make the mask out of?

the mask and helmet are tapped of polyester resin and fiberglass, very thin, very strong and light weight, the range finder and camera are cast of acrylic. Antenna, filters, chin greebles-2prt plastic. it is a nice kit to put together. not hard to assemble, easy to paint, lots of room to custom out to personal taste.

The paint job makes it look like actual rubber.

when I sculpted it I added alot of texture, I wanted it to feel like a gas mask, it would be nice to run them of rubber, I would just have to core out the mold, I thought about it, maybe for the future...

This is a job well done. I'm on my second play through of New Vegas right now, and I'm really tempted to just raid Camp Golf for this stuff....

If you ever start a run on this, let me know!

I am gearing up for steel city con, I will have some kits to let go, I have to figure out a assembly manual for the kit, I think it is pretty simple to assemble but I think it would be cool to put together some thing neat and fun to read while putting the thing together. I will abide by the rules of this site, I am new here, but like i said, I am gearing up for a con, an idea for a run count would be nice.

That looks really cool!

I will be at the steel city con in december, if you want to see it up close.

This is a very cool build, the entire outfit-- love the chest and neck protection as well as the helmet/mask. Where did you get the coat?

 

[Skruffy]

Man, that looks great! Job very well done, sir!
