Yea, the mask is what i always consider the hardest part. Not only do you have to make it something you can see out of, but also something that looks gross and disturbing. These were just all plaster strips and i folded one of the long edges under to make it look thicker than what it is. It's extremely light and i super glued an elastic band with hooks and eyes so i can remove it whenever i want. I hear ya on the part about being able to see though...This is a total beast to see though. I can see directly in front of myself but my peripheral vision is shot. So i totally know how you feel..its hard lol. Thank you for your comment as well it's very much appreciated
