NHK INVERSION - concept mask -VIDEO and new pics added!

The latest concept mask to come from the proto program.
Dave White came up with the idea (I executed it) of painting the mask in reverse -with shadows, paint and hair inverted! Definitely a mask from ‘‘outside the box’’.

That’s really cool. A “negative” mask…love your concept ideas!

I was trying to imagine how this was going to look when I first told you about it. I think it looks killer! I can imagine the types of photos this could produce in certain lighting. Like a dark shot with that white weathering peeking through, might look eerie as hell! Awesome job on this Nick, you da man!

Oh that was your concept, Dave? That’s awesome! Great job to both of you guys.

Yes. I told him about this idea 2 years ago lol I was wondering how a mm mask would look if the paint sceme was totally opposite. It really does look x-ray ish looking, very ghostly too. Am wondering how pictures would turn out in the right lighting or lack there of for that matter. Nothing will ever be as creepy as the original paint up as the original but this looks pretty creepy to me!

im getting ben tramer vibes

Awesome job both Dave and Nick! My mind cant help but think that the above photo is a negative, I bet it looks even more trippy in person :open_mouth: :rock:

Lmao at Dicks opinion, “he’s speechless”. Nick you always find a way to capture that autumn feel with your dialogue and backdrop. Awesome idea, very fresh, love the concept program.

thanks! i wasnt sure if the video would be accessible, but i guess it is. Thanks for the comment :slight_smile:
I try to keep things interesting…other than just pumping out one white mask after another…variety is the spice of life :slight_smile:

Very cool mask. Reminds me of the alternate version of DP’s the mask done in the 90s, it was all black with white eyebrows and white sculpted hair. Pretty rare too, only saw a couple of copies.
