Win the ItsyBitsyBiter Mask

Just because Christmas is over, doesn’t mean we’ve lost the spirit of giving. “Monster” Matt Patterson wants to give you one of his custom monster masks, and all you have to do is answer a few simple questions.

Up for grabs is Monster Matt’s “ItsyBitsyBiter” mask. The mask is sculpted in WED clay, with no under structure, and molded with hydrocal (gypsum stone). Finishing off the mask is a cast of latex rubber, with color hand painted in acrylic inks.

Here’s some backstory-
I originally sketched this ugly two years ago.Last year,it almost got used in a low budget film,but that project got postponed.
I got around to making it a mask this year,and came up with the name after the childrens rhyme”The Itsy Bitsy Spider”.I thought of that or “Little Miss Muffet”.
It’s sculpted in WED clay.No under structure(armature).Molded with hydrocal(gypsum stone).Cast in latex rubber.Hand painted ,with acryllic inks.
I prefer the inks and hand painting ,because I let the inks flow into the various planes and crevices on the mask.Letting the inks do the work for me. it makes combinations that maybe wouldn’t happen with airbrushing.
There’s influences in the design ,from various sc-fi and horror films.

    i thought this was a great trivia contest and entered it. i won, too, remember? well, ol’ monstermatt has never sent me the mask that was the prize and i have mailed him twice about it. each time he says that it is on the way but i’m really think he is full of bs. just thought you should know since you are advertising his page and products and all.

    This is really upsetting to hear. I’ll send him an email right now and CC you on it, so we’re both on the same page with whatever is going on.
