Step 1: Giving the Mask Its Shape
To start with you have to take a sufficient amount of clay after which you roll it up into a ball and then flatten it to a thickness of your choice and place it upon the base while giving it the shape you want your mask to have.
Step 2: Creating the Permanent Details
Apply some water to make the clay moist and use your hand or clay tools to make a few details such as the eyes, or for example the black lines in my mask. Also do remember to create holes for the eyes, as a mask through which you can't see would be pretty useless.
Step 3: Putting a Layer of Primer on the Mask
Wait for the clay mask to dry off, after which put a layer of primer and wait for it to dry.
Step 4: Painting the Mask
Use the acrylic paints to paint your mask to your satisfaction keeping in mind small details which may enhance the overall appearance.
Step 5: Finish
Wait for the paint to dry and your mask is ready! Place the mask on a stand and your mask is ready to display!
