I've done a kitsune mask for Oiwa, my ANS Suzaku. She's half kitsune, so I wanted this mask for her since I got her.
It's a very simple thing, and a quite cute one. I may do an other mask for her, but a less kind one!
Kanohi Tallus - the Mask of Walking
The wearer of this mask is granted the ability to walk on any surface regardless of density and orientation. The more it defies physics, the more the user must concentrate to keep the power active.
This mask was a project I actually planned on doing a couple years ago, initially inspired by the mask maker contest, which I didn't find time to take part in. Back then I bought the Technic 24-hour race car for parts for the build, but the threshold to start such a project proved too high. Only a bit over a month ago did I actually start making the mask, and ironically it took only 7 hours over two sessions. I think it helped that I had been thinking of the design and color scheme for a couple of years.
The color scheme was initially meant to be black at the bottom, green in the middle and white at the top, but due to part limitations and the color of the eyes that changed to primarily green and black. I mainly used parts from the 24-hour race car and air race jet technic sets, with a couple extras from my bin. The blue was not initially meant to be included, but when I was running out of green to define the eyes, the blue turned out to give a great accent, so I went along with it.
I wore the mask at Pii Poo 2018 lego event last month and a lot of jaws dropped when the kids saw it. It was kinda priceless.
Whenever you're away from home, for the safety of yourself and others, wear a mask. Taken at Seattle's Pike Place market.
Venetian Carnival masks in all their colourful forms gives the wearer some anonymity but no immunity from disease , in fact they might contribute to a disease .. care is required with these :-)

I'm ready to go!
Next week i have to leave Italy and to go to Sweden!!! There will be a strange current local time: Sunrise at 3.39 and Sunset at 22.05 ...so i thought to make some eye masks, one of the best ways to get full, deep sleep.
These are for friends, but i want to make more!! :)
Double-masking.
Who is tired of masking?
This mask is too thin, this mask is too itchy, this mask is too crooked, this mask doesn't have a nose clip, this mask doesn't have an adjustable ear strap.
But at least I only have to wear a mask for a few minutes at a time, not all day!

A mask fashioned from a material unknown that seems to shift its appearance depending on the wearer's intentions. It belongs to Silkie, a beautiful being of new worlds and perceptions. She weaves realities together for amusement and easily tears them down just as well.

as Spider-Man drops in to visit the Joker, I quickly grabbed this shot in fear of what was to come! Pentax gear, K3, saving the image...for all mankind!
That is my first picture for the Collective 52 Photo Project.
The mask was a gift from my daddy. He bought it in Verona, Italy.
"Sparkle"
Masks have always been an important feature of the Venetian carnival. Traditionally people were allowed to wear them between the festival of Santo Stefano (St. Stephen's Day, December 26) and the start of the carnival season at midnight of Shrove Tuesday. As masks were also allowed on Ascension and from October 5 to Christmas, people could spend a large portion of the year in disguise. Maskmakers (mascherari) enjoyed a special position in society, with their own laws and their own guild.
Venetian masks can be made of leather, porcelain or using the original glass technique. The original masks were rather simple in design, decoration, and often had a symbolic and practical function. Nowadays, most of them are made with the application ofgesso and gold leaf and are all hand-painted using natural feathers and gems to decorate.
There is little evidence explaining the motive for the earliest mask wearing in Venice. One scholar argues that covering the face in public was a uniquely Venetian response to one of the most rigid class hierarchies in European history.
The first documented sources mentioning the use of masks in Venice can be found as far back as the 13th century. The Great Council made it a crime to throw scented eggs.The document decrees that masked persons were forbidden to gamble.
Another law in 1339 forbade Venetians from wearing vulgar disguises and visiting convents while masked. The law also prohibited painting one's face, or wearing false beards or wigs.
Near the end of the Republic, the wearing of the masks in daily life was severely restricted. By the 18th century, it was limited only to about three months from December 26. The masks were traditionally worn with decorative beads matching in colour.

You know those LEGO art sets, the pixel art ones? I'm of course making one with the Mask Of Shadows, or the Kraahkan.
One of 2 gorgeous venetian masks a friend bought for my sister when there was a masked ball in the village
[...] Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth [...]

Venice, Italy (February, 2008)
A superb fantastical item.
Quechua and Aymara miners in Bolivia seek control of their spiritual identity through the Diablada dance, in which an angel conquers demons. The Diablada figure represents Huari, translated by Catholic priests as the Devil, a pre-Inca mountain spirit of strength and fire.
The Diablada dance is passed down in families and is performed at Carnival, most famously at Oruro, Bolivia, where thousands of dancers portray many groups of characters. Depicting the triumph of good over evil, the Diablada dance has acquired Catholic symbolism over the centuries but still retains an indigenous spirit.
Carlos Sanchez (Aymara) learned the dance from his father. Now living in New York City, Carlos donated this mask to the Smithsonian because, at the time, younger men in his family were not practicing the Diablada. Indigenous families that leave their homeland often find that traditions are hard to preserve in the next generation. The mask was made circa 1975. - all from panels explaining the exhibit.
I saw the mask in the National Museum of the American Indian on the National Mall in Washington DC. I've darkened - but not completely blacked-out - the background to reduce reflections from the glass under which the exhibit is kept.
Another attempt of folding a mask. This time with painted watercolor paper.
