      Meet Normand




      He is currently being cast in plaster to be made into an array of latex masks. I fucked up a little bit on the casting process and wasted a bunch of plaster because this is my first time working with the stuff, but hopefully it will all work out in the end.

      Good job, amazing for a first try. Amazing period.

      By far, Mothra (in all of it's forms) is the worst kaiju of all time.

      I will probably wear this on halloween but its mostly just a practice. I've wanted to get in to mask making for awhile and I needed to do something fairly simple. Hopefully eventually I will be able to sell them.

      Cool. Maskmaking is a lucrative business, as well as fun if you enjoy it. You've got skill.

      PS: Am I the only one who finds the name Norman a bit disturbing on that?

      Thanks. I'll post pictures once that masks are done. I wasted a bunch of plaster when I was casting it, since I hadn't used it before, and ran out.

      Also, why is Normand a creepy name?

      I think because Normand is usually associated with very neutral people, a flat character perhaps - this Normand, however, is grotesque and wrinkled and not at all a 'stereotypical' Normand.

      My explanation, anyways.


      Starry starry night, paint your pallet blue and gray,
      Look out on a summers day,
      with eyes that know the darkness of my soul.

      I guess that makes sense. The original concept of the mask was that it was to be for a Viking costume that I'm putting together for this halloween. Normand is a name that evolved from the word 'norseman' and basically means viking.

      Its funny, because I decided on the name after reading the Steven King Book, Rose Madder. The Antagonist in the book is named Norman. I thought it fit but wanted to add the D thinking it sounded better and only realized later how well it worked.

      Holy CRAP that is awesome! That's your first try? Seriously? Damn fine job, man! I love the expression, and I think the name suits him perfectly. Superb job on all the little details, too. Colour me impressed.
