I agree that the ‘gunk’ is a little rouge. This image was pre make-up which blended it a little better but its fat from ideal. The gunk is actually Copydex paper glue which I placed on the mask while it was still on the plaster case of my face I’d made.  It dries into a rubber which is soft but holds its shape. I couldn’t source latex at short notice here in Ireland and I needed to work with the bit and piece I had at hand.<br><br>The mark is not pre-made as some have suggested. I cased my face in alginate and plaster and used that as a model to make the mask using air drying clay. I used sliver tap, normally used to cover plaster boards, to cover it and then painted over it. Various pieces (rawplugs, old electronic parts solder wire, etc) where used to act and hydraulics and other bits and bobs. It was originally kitted out with 6 lights but at they where very small and delicate LCD’s and most failed.<br><br>This is only one image of the complete build I sent to Engadget so they know the work involved. There was also a chest burn and damaged knee to complete the look. It’s not perfect as some have correctly pointed out but I had fun experimenting. <br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Paul J]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 12:55AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Winners of Engadget's Halloween Costume Contest!]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/03/winners-of-engadgets-halloween-costume-contest/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/03/winners-of-engadgets-halloween-costume-contest/</guid><description><![CDATA[He should disguise the rest of the body as a tripod!<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[miguel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 12:55AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Winners of Engadget's Halloween Costume Contest!]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/03/winners-of-engadgets-halloween-costume-contest/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/03/winners-of-engadgets-halloween-costume-contest/</guid><description><![CDATA[well i give you a 5 for effort. i dont have the focus to do stuff like this anyways. basicly i give up, leaving behind a whole lot of halfdone projects...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[hobgoblin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 12:55AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Winners of Engadget's Halloween Costume Contest!]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/03/winners-of-engadgets-halloween-costume-contest/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/03/winners-of-engadgets-halloween-costume-contest/</guid><description><![CDATA["No one posting comments here should criticize anyone else for having too much time on their hands, IMO."<br><br>Thanks for pointing that out Dominic.
