Artist's Comments

When I designed my "Fullsteam" leather steampunk mask (which you can see if you check out my gallery), I liked the elements on each side of the mask so much that I did two more masks with one side plain brown leather & one side full of clockwork gear elements. This was the left side of the "Fullsteam" design, so I called it "Halfgear".

The gearworks were drawn from life...I used a German watch as my model. Everything is carved by hand & painted with Liquitex metallic acrylic paints.

This mask can be commissioned at my Etsy shop: [link]

That's a pretty cool idea; it'd be perfect for a family or group of friends who are looking to stick with a theme.

True! Especially if everyone's dressing Steampunk for a party or convention or something... :-)

I imagine two mystic creatures who live in a big clock and care for its mechanical elements and that it never stops... And a dance to a music with a tic-tac-ing rhythm. Go, find somebody who writes musicals and such for your masks =)

Neat! That'd be pretty cool. :-)

Very precise modeling/carving. I love the colours' rich subtle tones.

Thank you...I did have to do this carefully because a sketchy line would ruin the effect of it looking like machinery.
