Leather Mask Making Tutorial

I have no idea what zyohger is, so I looked it up, it looked something like Power Ranger masks but animals?  The ones I saw were a lot more...Puffy looking than what leather would typically do.  I suppose you could try, or do a variant of it, but it isn't going to end up looking a whole lot like them from what I saw.  

::twitch:: I don't advise buying from Hobby Lobby.  You're far better off buying a "grab bag" of leather remnants from Tandy Leather Factory or any other leather supply store that sells scraps of vegetable tanned leather.  You can quite easily make domino masks out of many of the scraps for much cheaper overall, plus the odd shapes can force you to be a bit creative with the final form.

I live near a Tandy Leather Factory so I can just drive down to get more leather, but you can look for online stores or buy off of ebay.  You could also try your local craigslist to see if anyone local is selling vegetable tanned leather.

Do so!  Even if you go with a simple domino mask for your first one it looks so much more polished if you shape it like in the tutorial and ends up looking quite impressive.

Actually, they're leather dyes, which are shown in Step 2.

I wouldn't say it's impossible, but I'm not sure how it could be made without leaving a seam.  You would probably have to make it sort of the way you do a pillow, use VERY thin leather, make two halves of the sphere, stitch them together wrong-side-out, wet them and flip them inside-out so they're correct side out and try stretching it while wet into the correct shape.

Did you put it up on DA?
