Description From the west she appeared,
Sunlight and stars in her hair.
In her eyes an undying memory of home,
A land that is magical and fair.

When her feet came to rest,
Deep in a canopied glade,
She lifted her face and there she danced.
The realm of LothlΓ³rien she made.

Gaze on me lady of gold,
Reawaken my slumbering soul.
Beacon of courage summon me home,
to your haven of wonders untold.

"Lothlorien"
~The Lord of the Rings Musical

---------------------------------------------------------------------
A mask inspired by this beautiful song and the mysterious realm of Lothlorien from J.R.R. Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings". Also nicknamed the "Galadriel" mask

This werewolf half mask was hand sculpted, carved, and painted from 8 oz. veg tanned leather. The cabochon is a genuine rainbow moonstone cabochon.

This is 's finished mask. Hope you like it!

I will be taking commissions for this mask though I will change the design a bit since this mask is to remain completely unique and one of a kind. Note me if you are interested.

Design and art copyright to Sarah Elder, Draikairion 2010. You may not print this, copy the design, or use the mask design as your own. Thanks.

I wanted to comment on this but I got sidetracked. This mask looks really nice. You really know how to craft stuff together. Do you plan on making a career out of your crafting?

Thank you for your complement.

I feel SOOOOOOO dummy dumb dumb right nowz...........so not HOLY WOW...(I'm still cracking up about that)

If you really want me to sign it then u can send it back if you want. If its not a HUGE deal to you, don't worry about it. I just feel bad about forgetting to do that because I signed the the other wolf mask I sold O_O. Maybe I'll include a little giftie as an apology. That's sloppiness as an artist! How dare me !!!

Here's a handy hint. Before shipping the mask today, I tried it on and put on my white Medieval gown and a new emerald lace cape that I made. Cape + Mask = unparalleled fantasy awesomeness and beauty. Any emerald, gold, gray, black, or white cape would look stunning with this mask.

A matching evening gown would be lovely too

You're welcome, my friend. I just hope it was worth the leather you sent me.

I had so much fun designing this mask. I won't be replicating this exact mask so you will have a one of a kind!

Maybe if you ever do get around to making the Aeterna mask/suit/whatever...I could make the leather armor and we could sell the costume together (of course you'd have to get moar of the monies!)

I just really want to see how you portray Aeterna as a mask! I could TRULY care less if the other parts are never made. I just want to SEE Aeterna as a mask . And please sell it for yourself...I just want to see with my eyeballs what you do with him!

X3 I plan on making a new feline sculpt. One that's a bit larger and more accurate. He will be the first mask that is made from that cast. ^^
