Arrancar Mask: Grimmjow Jeagerjacues

This is a tricky piece of work

What you will need:
  • Pencil
  • Paper
  • High density foam
  • pins
  • Latex / liquid rubber
  • Paint brush
  • Cutters / scissors
  • Wood glue
  • white paint that will not flake on latex. Fabric paint worked for us
  • Spirit gum for sticking it to your face





Now let's start:

  1. Looking at Grimmjow's teeth / jaw, sketch the basic  outline as well as the rough teeth onto a paper.
  2. Cut it out and hold it to your jaw. If it looks great, go onto step 3, otherwise if it's too big or too small or it doesn't look right, repeat the steps 1 and 2.
  3. So now you have a basic image to work from. Re-sketch it drawing the teeth separate from the jaw and upper piece.
  4. Now trace all the pieces onto the high density foam.
  5. Cut out all the pieces carefully.
  6. Trim and Shape the pieces.
  7. glue the teeth onto the jaw and upper piece, using pins to keep the teeth in place.
  8. When everything is dry, remove the pins, and spread out paper underneath your mask (on your workspace)
  9. Get the brush and latex and start covering the mask. Remember if you do not work in a ventilated room, I suggest getting a mask or your sinuses will hurt the following week.
  10. Repeat until you are happy with the thickness of latex.
  11. Now, when everything is dry, start painting the mask, leaving the back part where you will glue it to your face open (spirit gum does not want to stick so nice when it's not clean latex or rubber) And repeat the painting until it is perfect for you!
  12. And there you have it: Your very own Grimmjow mask.
If anything is unclear, feel free to ask.
