this is my trick or treat studios h2 mask. i made little changes to it to look more like how i wanted it.

Did you extend the eyebrows? It looks angrier than a normal Elrod.

Thanks man. :slight_smile:

Yes I did. Just slightly, it doesn’t take much, when you add weathering in the corner of the eyes it also helps.

Looks cool man, I like what you did with that H2.

thanks man! good job on the elrod mask

:open_mouth: :open_mouth: :open_mouth: Hot damn that’s a nice looking elrod you’ve done up! What did you do to put the glue lines? I’ve been wanting to put some on mine, but i’m unsure about what glue to use and whatnot. Also, I LOVE the eye cuts some of you guys have been doing to your elrods; I’m afraid to go at mine, and I’m not really sure what tools to use in order to get them just right.

I started to use a hot glue gun to make the glue lines but it ended up being to messy so I took some clear liquid latex and painted it on using a small paintbrush…

As for the eye cuts, I used the sharpest pair of scissors I could find and gently cut just enough to remove the black around the eyes…




Hope this helps you out. :slight_smile:

That looks really awesome dude. Nice work! :astonished:

Picked this guy up at the local shop yesterday. |> :rock:

Heres just a couple photos of just the mask and wearing it. Its 3am but I just wanted to show what I have haha, still in the process of goofying around with weathering the face and playing with the hair and what gels would work better to hold it there. Just using a paste at the moment. Would love to hear input of it so far! Cheers guys! :mrgreen:

What did you use to weather it? I’m looking to do the same to mine. It’s a great mask and there is a great scultp in there, it’s just too clean/white.

I think a great beginner/starter way to start weathering these type of masks are to use a very very watered down acrylic paint in the color of black or brown or a nice mixture! If weathering/shading is heavier in certain areas add more paint to the water to make it a tad thicker and of course wipe this away after applied so the low spots will catch the paint and create the better look of the mask.

Another quick question. I need to tweak the eye cuts on the Elrod because they are a little too small, however, I just don’t want to dive in and commit to the cuts without a guide or something to give me an idea as to how it’ll look before I cut. My question is, is there any kind of black marker that I could use that would wipe clean off of the latex if need be? Would a dry erase marker work? I just want something to draw a black outline around the existing eyes to show me where to cut when I got it where I want it and something that would wipe off/erase if need be.

i used my sons erasable color marker.its water based and wipes right off.there by crayloa

Thanks so much. I’ll give it a try.

Great pics everyone!

Requesting KNB H20 pics, I have one on the way and want to build excitement, haha.

I basically followed this guys instructions and then I touched up some of the areas like the eyes, ears and mouth using a rag dipped into the watered down acrylic paint.
