The paw may rot slowly but will give glory and riches while it is intact. Others will say it is better to earn the paw, freely given upon a good death after a long friendship with said monster. The paw will then forever quietly flame with the love shared, never to crumble to dust...\" \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEye tutorial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnother eye tutorial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHere are all of my tutorials!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe original was sculpted in clay, this is not a 3D print.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTHIS IS A PRE-ORDER.

I used a 8\" x 13\" satin pouch, (dyed with black rit dye to knock down the brightness a bit) glued into the hollow arm. I plan to add iron on patterns to the inside of the pouch and will finish the inside of the arm that shows above the bag with some foam and matching red fabric. \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eAfter roughly sanding the surface \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e to have some rough \"tooth\", I reinforced the inside of the stump rim with plumbers putty, this will strengthen the anchor points for the purse strap. I drilled a 8mm hole and inserted an aluminum rod cut to 1\/2\" width, this will protect the 25mm D ring shackle bar that you will then insert. You can get a swiveling version and use a clip ring.\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAttach a leather strap and go wild!\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis includes one (1) 14\" hollow cast monster paw, five (5) translucent grey claws, and one blank 40mm glass cabochon.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePlease read my policy page and the mask info page for more details.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e- \u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eI strongly recommend that the buyer have familiarity with finishing masks, models, props or some crafting knowledge or the desire to learn on their own.

The finished photos are just an example of what the mask can look like when completed.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e- Once sanding\/finishing is complete the mask can be primed with any spray primer and painted with acrylics or whatever you prefer. Wash your mask with dish soap first to remove any oils or dirt. Seal with clear coat to prevent scuffs after painting.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e- While there is no industry standard for handmade urethane mask thickness, i try to keep a good balance of durability and a light weight. Buyer may add to any thin spots with lightweight putty or subtract any thickness with a dremel or carving tool. Everyone has a personal preference for how thick\/thin they want their mask and there is no way to predict this preference between individuals.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e- Elastic bands can be used for straps. Please be sure to roughen or \"score\" the inside part of the mask where the straps will attach. This will help the adhesive stick properly.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e- \u003cstrong\u003eThis urethane is sensitive to heat\u003c\/strong\u003e. Please keep it out of direct sunlight as it can warp under it's own weight when hot. \u003cstrong\u003eIf the mask does not fit, It can be heat shaped by using a hairdryer or \u003c\/strong\u003eheat gun to warm the surface and inside. Gently open the mask by holding and spreading both sides while warm to make it wider. Set the shape you want by immersing the warm mask in cold water or leaving on an upturned bowl or object to hold the shape while it cools.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e- This is a project that should be attempted by adults or under adult supervision. Please read all safety warnings on materials you use. I am not responsible for any injuries sustained while customizing these masks.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e-This mask fits most faces but a perfect fit is not guaranteed. Cannot be worn with glasses.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e- Do not use this as safety equipment or a welding mask or anything else but costuming. Use common sense, please.
