The Book of Eli stars Denzel Washington, as a traveler in a post-apocalyptic world, who’s only motivation to continue on is his belief in hope for the future. He’s a warrior by necessity, rather than choice, and his only worthy adversary is a man named Carnegie (Gary Oldman) – the only one who truly understands the potential power of Eli, and the book he guards.

Know Your Creature Features, Win A Mask!

Win the ItsyBitsyBiter Mask

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.

Answer the Creature Feature Trivia after the jump. Send an e-mail to scars.contests@gmail.com, subject line “Monster Mask,” with your answers and chance to win! Deadline January 14, 2010. (more…)
