Description What's better than steampunk goggles? Steampunk goggle + tentacles. All in one mask. It had to be done.

Totally pandering to a genre here, but this was a LOT of fun to make. I call it "His Noodly Appendages"...not exactly the Flying Spaghetti Monster, strictly speaking, although it would be the perfect thing to wear on "Talk Like A Pirate" Day.

This is just "version 1" because I intend to keep playing with the design. No two will ever be exactly alike though.

Made of leather, goggle parts, clock cogs, brass fittings, love and a bit of a sense of humor.

I am in LOVE with this. I love the idea of Steampunk but 8 times out of 10 it's just the same old top hat, googles and corset thrown together. This is very refreshing!

Thank you. Yeah, this is really more "fantasy". Industrial Fantasy...there, a new term.

Wow. This is such a creative mask. I love how 3D it is, and anything octopusish and steampunky is automatically cool.

Awesomeness! Great colour choices for it; really adds to the steampunk look. All that's missing is some maniacal laughter and you've got a perfect pirate captain.

Cthulhu meets steampunk! Awesome! Would love to see wildly-colored tentacles - it would add to the strangeness of having a tentacle-face.

merimask In reply to dragonflair22 [2012-01-03 16:24:23 +0000 UTC]

Yes exactly! And I'm experimenting with some more "octopus-like" colors as well as mixed-media tentacle suckers for a more realistic & disturbing effect. Because octopi are creepy.

Thank you! It's a fun design...sort of a cross between my Medusa masks and...something darker.
