This is a mask I made for the medieval market in Visby Gotland. It's made with a sort of papier maché and wool. And some paint. It has leather straps with a little buckle in the back.

Just a quick question, where did you get the wool for the mask? It looks beautiful. ^^

Try searching for raw sheep wool or sheepskin.

Tried raw sheep wool too and that didn't get the results I want either, but I never thought about typing in sheepskin, I try that. Thanks. ^^

Jag försöker för tillfället fördjupa mig lite i papier mache. Vet du hur det är med vattenresistenta alternativ av det? Vad för papper brukar du använda? Har massor av frågor så tog dom två mest kritiska xD
Skitnice mask föresten.

Halloj! Hur menas med vattenresistenta? Den pappersmassan jag använt blir riktigt hård och om man också lackar den efteråt så skulle jag tro att den klarar sig ganska bra mot väta. Då har jag använt vanligt tidningspapper, har både trälim och potatismjöl i också.

Åhh tack för informationen! Tja jag vet inte, jag har faktist aldrig gjort egen papier maché och hade hört rykten att det kunde falla sönder av vatten. Men det är ju logiskt, lack eller färg bör ju lösa den problematiken ^^

The papier mache really lends itself to the texture of a sheep! This looks really nice.

*jaw drop* It actually does look like a real sheep! Minus the red on it of course. Awesome!

That is so awesome ...and a little bit creepy. I certainly would not want to run into anyone wearing this in the dark. Does it have any eye holes at all amongst that black?
