So after looking around online I decided I didn't quite like any of the plague
doctor masks that I was seeing as far as tutorials, it all seemed like a lot of extra
work for something that never turned out very clean.I decided to throw caution
to the wind and just take elements of masks I've seen that I liked for inspiration
and try and make one up on my own. I decided on a base of crafting foam, I've
yet to see one made out of it which surprised me (maybe I wasn't looking in the
right places) but it bends nicely and still has a firmness to it. So here's what I
did if anyone is interested:
(/id/Stitches-
Makeup/)
(/id/Zombie-Makeup-2013/)
You'll need:
Crafting Foam sheet (x2, one for the mask and one for the straps for the back)
clear colored plastic binder divider
fabric of your choice (thinner/lighter the better, you'll be hand-stitching a lot)
wire gauge, stiff enough to hold a shape on it's own and not instantly bend
thread
black paint (forgot to picture, i used acrylic)
hot glue gun and sticks
scissors
needles of your choice (need to be durable and go through a lot)
any decor embellishments
paper and pen (to make the template)
something round to make the circles for the eyes and something straight to
draw the lines

using sheets of paper determine the size and shape you want your mask to
have. The key elements are the left/right side panels, the bottom left/right
panels, and the top panel (later you'll make the eye cutouts and head straps).
(attached are the scans of mine, the right panel is the same as the left, just face
the flip side up and then they are symmetrical *also sorry for the poor lines, my

I was able to fit all of the template pieces (including eye cutouts, excluding
straps) on one sheet. It goes a long way. (12x18 inch sheet)
Step 4: Fabric

Lay the foam onto the fabric, and outline in marker with an additional ~half inch
margin around the pieces (enough to fold over). Cut out the fabric and fold
over/hot glue the interior so the edges are also covered

Here you have two choices, you can dive into stitching or glue first. Gluing will
make stitching a bit harder in the long run, but you get the reassurance
everything fits in the right places. I personally glued first as this was my
prototype but in the future if I make another I'm going to dive into stitching.

Start hand stitching! It's time consuming and depending on how much foam/hot
glue/fabric is layered certain areas will be harder than others, but it's all doable
(some will require a nice sturdy book to press the needle against to get it to go
through all the layers), and some will cut through like it's just a cheese clothe.
Focus on connecting pieces, the beak and the top. This is the connection time.

For the eyes now we get to repeat the process! Take something round, (I used a
roll of tape but it was too large and I cut it so much I really don't know what to
recommend as far as the round size ratio but I threw in the final measurements
for you if your going by my size choice), cut out the foam. Once you do that do
the same with the fabric with the margins. When gluing the foam to fabric, it
may help to cut little vertical slits (edge of fabric into the foam) in the fabric so
it's easier to fold and glue.
Once the fabric is glued on, stitch the interior of the circle edge.
cut the plastic divider and hot glue to the interior
Then (if you want to glue first you can, I did, and) stitch the exterior of the circle

And we're done! Take photos and do with as you'd like!

(the interior I never cleaned up, no one but me will see the inside so I stopped
there, but if you'd like to clean up the inside I'd just change the fabric to double
over on the inside or create a cutout panel and glue it on).
Overall, ~7 hours, but I think next time now that I'm not making it up as I go I
imagine ~5 hrs

Hey, thanks a lot for the tutorial! This really helped me out.
I used the templates by Adriaan Dippenaar, he 's got a blog on the web where I
downloaded the files.
I used 2mm craft foam and covered it with faux leather. Then I used as little
glue as I could to attach the pieces to each other and hand-stitched them with
black thread.
For the eyes I cut my old sports trousers, it's some sort of mesh. It's quite easy
to look through when wearing the mask but from "the other side" with a little
more distance you can't really see through it.
Unfortunately I'm wearing glasses, I didn't consider that when working on this.
It's quite uncomfortable to wear the mask with glasses underneath, but I think
I'll get over it... :-)

I used 3mm foam sheet instead of 2mm and i found that I didn't need to use the
wire reinforcement. It's fairly sturdy. I also used black outdoor thread which was
easy to use. I purchased the same set of repair needles in the supplies image. I
tried the larger curved upholstery needle first. Switching to the leather needle
made things go much more quickly. I didn't glue the pieces together, I just
stitched everything.

I made this mask, very helpful tutorial.

however, here are some tips to help other users not make the same mistakes i
did while making this costume.
1. I accidentally bought foam board instead of craft foam. Don't do that. 'nuf
said.
2. At jo ann fabrics, i found my materials for putting overt the foam in the red
tag section. I used black fake leather for mine, works great. Just make sure to
use a big needle.
3. I used tape to hold my pieces together while sewing. Makes it a lot easier for
the item to hold its shape while sewing. I used both hot glue and stitching to
hold mine together, as well as a bit of e 6000 to patch up some parts.
4. For my eyes, I used some hardware such as washers and plastic mesh to
make somewhat steampunk eyes, I used stitches, hot glue, and e 6000 to hold
the eyes in place.
5. I used elastic for my strap, much easier and holds the mask to your face
better. I stitched my elastic in and then used hot glue to hold it in place as well.
6. When hot gluing, i reccomend gluing the middle of the fabric to the mask so
that i lies flatter.
Overall great tutorial, I just wanted to help people not make the same mistakes I
did.

Of all the tutorials out there with both the ones being sold and free on the
internet, this one was easy to follow with only a few steps. It allowed for me to
tweak it a little to fit my forehead better. It also leaves room for the maker to
modify it a bit to change the beak shape and such. I made mine out of white
soft thin craft foam (stuff they use to line the inner part of the shoes, table
mats, and coasters) and hand stitched it all together with black thread using the
ladder stitching style that looks like a bunch of Xs lined up..I did not have time
to do the proper mod you had for the eye sockets, but I put a quick projector
sheet cut out and glue....The head strap is just a strip of the foam I hand
stitched on that acted as a rubber band like thing that made the mask stay on..
It took about 5 hours because of the hand stitching and no glue..Oh and how
did you breath out of yours? I had to cut out a 2 inches x 0.5 inch rectangle

I have been looking at making one of these but I have been procrastinating over
the type of leather and how much to get and what colour. I could probably get
this done without needing to find a leather shop and it probably won't cost me
as much.
Nice thinking!

I got a mid size bag of tooling leather at hobby lobby And a

punch tool to punch holes because we laced it together at the seems. Its
multicolored and every piece is different. I still have leather left over... but
they are scraps in the bag so you just have to make sure you have pieces
big enough. The measurement was the hard part. I made a few templates
with paper and glued them togethrr and i had my son try them all on and
tweeked things here and there intil we had a basic... and even then with
the leather it was constant trying it on and altering as we went. Also.. it
held its shspe pretty well so we didnt need the wire.

Mine turned out awesome! Thanks! I used a spray craft adhesive to glue my
faux leather to the craft foam since I figured that there would be less glue to
sew through when I began to stitch. To make my eyes glow I used a camping
headlamp with a red gel taped over it. The eye pieces are purse grommets
(bought at Joann Fabrics). I wanted my beak to be nice and curved so I used
one piece unstead of the two shown in the pattern above.

Is it possible to just stitch without gluing? Haven't worked with craft foam
before, so I don't really know much about it.

thank
you for
only question is I Made it!
this...we're not sold on actually closing the whole mask up (I know, kind of
straying from history)..so how would we be able to maintain the shape of the
mask without adding the underside? I hope that makes sense. I thought maybe
a crossing pattern of the wire could support it. Any suggestions? We will
definitely post some shots when finished! You did great!

Step 8 you can see the bottom, I decided to go with two triangles to create a
more round shape but if you want you could easily just put the two together and
make one piece instead :) thanks so much for the interest, if you have anymore
questions just let me know!

do you have any pictures of the bottom of the mask? i was interested in how
you put it together. and i was wondering if just making one big triangle would
work better?
