Photo study #13 - Brawling with Bryan

I've found another great company.

Bryan Silva of Studio 135 has produced a number of monster masks in the past, but has spent a good deal of time and effort to work on a core for his more realistic masks. In general, I'm not into monsters (although I do have some) and his "Brawler" mask is a bit of a transition piece - human with some inhuman undertones. Unhaired, you definitely get a bit of a "Lost Boys" vibe wearing it.


Bryan's lip cupping is nothing short of amazing. It almost feels you are being kissed. The perfect fit also produces perfect movement. The mask is snug without being tight and has an amazing bib that looks absolutely real under any shirt - tank, tee or dress. Pecs and traps are built up beautifully and the neck is snug enough to prevent any wrinkling when you move your head from side to side.

Eye fit is also superb. There is very little space between the edge of the mask and your eyelids, but without it feeling intrusive or irritating.

I ordered it without hairing and after a bit decided to send it out to be haired as well - just brows and some facial hair. I really love the way it looks haired as well as unhaired - I may pick up another one and keep it smooth!
