Human masks requests
Somebody was asking me about various human masks today. The person was looking for various faces and wanted to buy several. I do have several masks that really work well to get the complete look of a costume right. It does not look right when someone wears a costume and just does not have the right head to match the costume. The masks that I have are made out of foam latex and can be worn for hours without getting too hot. Some are more comfortable than others.

New foam latex masks from Greyland Film
The long awaited foam latex masks from Greyland Film have finally arrived. I had to pick them up at the Cape Gate Parcel section from SARS today. The new faces should be pretty interesting with several costumes.

Foam latex masks shipped
The ordered foam latex masks have been shipped as per the manufacturer. The masks are not really meant to be rented to different people, but they are useful for modelling costumes and just to show.

New costumes, repairs, masks and possibly wigs
It is the time of the year to get more costumes due to the number of requests. Some of my costumes are also being fixed and mostly improved as well. I have also ordered more foam latex masks which I sometimes use to model costumes if I do not have a model for some of them and the costume actually fits me. The number of wig searches on my site also is an incentive to buy some wigs for reselling purposes. It is a bad idea to keep a wig around, because they are a pain to maintain and never look as good as when they were new. A father christmas suit is also being planned due to demands, as well as Austin Powers.
