I second that notion. Having used wood routers a lot, unless your REALLY careful, it's just more room for stuff to mess up. I'd recommend the wall mount. That, and how often are you actually going to walk around with it on? maybe a week, then forget about it. Wall mount? Can keep it forever. when your 42 and your sitting in your home office with a picture of your two kids, your wife is in the kitchen right next to your office I swear to god if anyone cries loveist I will suffocate them with my richard.), and you'll look up onto the wall at your Majora's Mask and smile; "man that was a fun project..."
That, and it would leave room for friends/children/etc to ask about it and the reference, and in turn get them interested in LoZ :I

or you could sell it, that's cool too. I'll put $20 down, though if I was being nice and complimenting it's worth >=$50 imo :cookieMonster:

Hmm, you guys bring up good points. I may just keep it as it is.

Also, with material costs alone I put 120$ into this project. Good wood, acrylic paint, some nice brushes and the woodworking tools don't come cheap.
However, with the materials I have now, I could make about three more if I wanted to.
Totally worth it though.

go walk around walmart with it on :D
this this this this this

At this point I have two options: I could make it a wall mount or carve the back out to make it a real mask.
Of course, you still wouldn't be able to see with it on. Right now, the back is solid.

I'm leaning toward carving the back out, but I'd need a wood router..
Wouldn't be a little heavy for use as a mask?

Make some more, Keep the one you have as a base. Make a wall mount and try a mask.

Make two more. Make the orginal mask a wallmount, the second a real mask, make the third one look like a bionicle infectec konki mask.

$360 dollars? You both want him to spend three-hundred-and-sixty dollars on another 2 masks!? Holy stuff, if you can both afford that, shouldn't you be more concerned about which Mexican is waxing your Ferrari?

I think you missed this part AdinX. I spent 120$ on the materials for at least 3 more masks. I overshot.

I may at some point make more of them, but for now I'm gonna take it easy.
The mask right now is about 3 pounds because it is solid wood. If I were to carve out a place for my face to go, Id more than likely be able to drop half that weight.
