HERE'S MY DOTTORE MALFATTO MASK
<3 Assassin's Creed <3
I UPLOADED THIS TO HELP FELLOW COSPLAYERS HOW TO MAKE A MALFATTO MASK and show off my awesomeness

--
My mask is make out of MODELING CLAY and FLORAL FOAM

-First, I took a blank-fullface mask base that can be bought at any craft store
-I bought a cone-shaped piece of Floral-foam (high density foam would be better, i don't think Styrofoam is a good replacement) and carved it into the shape of Malfatto's beak
-I cut out the nose of the mask, and bigger eye holes with an x-acto knife (sizzors just cut it man)
-The point of cutting open the nose is that IT'S DAMN SMALL, and it allows you to breath better.
- AFTER THAT, I hot-glued the foam beak to the mask after i made sure it was ABSOLUTELY PERFECT. (Malfatto's beak should be about 10 cm, its really short)
-THEN, I took crayola modeling clay (light-wieght, cheap, and air-dry) and covered the area of the mask that i wanted to keep (note that malfatto's mask stops at his chin and is in a diamond-shape)
- While the clay is still moist and workable i shaped the mask into PERFECTION, that includes the beak detail, the cheek detail, and the frown.
-LET DRY
-The black circle parts of his eyes are just these lids for eye-shadows that i just popped out the glass part and glued into the mask... the black thingie in between the goggles is just hot glue... YEAH
-when the clay drys its kinda chunky-looking and soft. Sorta like you made the mask out of play-doe or marshmallows. and it has these ugly creases and stuff, and its just like BLEH, SOOOOOO, I took All-purpose Joint compound (can be bought at a hard-ware store for cheap, plaster would work too) I took the joint-compound and smeared it over the mask and smoothed out the entire mask.
-LET DRY, IGNORE FISH-SMELL
-AFTER IT DRYS, I painted the entire mask with thick white Acrylic paint.
-LET DRY, DON'T TOUCH IT UNTIL IT'S COMPLETELY DRY.
-after it's COMPLETELY dry I went in with watered down black and painted in the details. I also dry-brushed some silver paint over the decals.
-TRUST ME WHEN I SAY THIS. The mask looks better when you put some contrast in it, if it's all one color it looks boring and flat and soft. You want Malfatto's mask to be EDGY AND GRUNGY AND COLD. Seriously, painted in textures make it look BOSS
-AFTER EVERYTHING IS OF AWESOME, I painted two layers of glossy clear acrylic varnish.
THEN DONE
Oh wait, POKE IN HOLES FOR THE ELASTIC BAND, use a drill bro, anything else will crack your mask.
-OH YEAH, and breathing holes, those are important. I poked five holes at the bottom of the beak (you can see them in the pics) (these holes go right to your mouth, so if you have like a teeny-tiny straw you can drink things LIEK A MALFATTO HUMMING BIRD OR SOMETHING! 8D )
-Oh yeah the blacked out eyes. I just popped out the glass of a pair of Sunglasses and hot-glued them onto the inside of the mask.

--
HEY! If you intend on wearing this for a long period of time, MIGHT I SUGGEST BRINGING A LOT OF SWEAT RAGS, ITS GONNA BE LIKE A RAINSTORM WENT THROUGH YOUR MASK. DRINK LOTS OF WATER MALFATTO, WHY DO YOU THINK HE ONLY COMES OUT AT NIGHT?

--
I hope to see lots of good masks to be produced :3
but if anyone makes a better mask I'll kill them *COUGH COUGH* You hear anything??? >.> <.<
