So cool to see how you do the masks 🎭 i have been to your shop in Venice end of last year and bought a Beautyful one in lilac and gold - added with a flower and Swarowski-Stones - i love it 🥰 it a stunning decoration most of time but already have worn it one evening already. It was great to wear and feels very well. You could wear it several hours and it still was no big issue. I had cheap masks before - after 5 minutes no chance to wear it even one minute longer 🙈 if so should come back to Venize I will visit You again and maybe I fall in love with another one 🥰 stay save!

[@Carmen-fr4dw]

I have begun making masks during Lockdown; using cheap papier mache ones from a local craft supplier, & die cut flourishes, plus gems, so it's interesting to see how they were originally made.

i dont mean to be off topic but does anybody know a method to log back into an Instagram account? I stupidly lost the account password. I would appreciate any help you can offer me.

[@cohenkody9563]

@Johnathan Jedidiah i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff now. I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@cohenkody9563]

@Johnathan Jedidiah It worked and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy:D Thanks so much you saved my account !

I totally love this volto mask shape, I´m using only this ones for venetian costumes :) Pity you do not sell blank ones, I´m buying them in United Kingdom even if they´re made in Italy :)))

[@rozanidesignsmasquerade7050]

Beautifully painted. I love this classic style❣️👍

[@rosiehutchinson9333]

Beautiful work :)

[@rob7349]

The paint you use to decorate the mask flows beautifully. Could you tell me what brand it is and perhaps where to purchase it?

[@lady00303]

From the look of it, it seems like she is using water base inks and acrylic paints.. you can find those at any art supplier.

[@paoladimeo412]

The paint they use is acrilic paint

[@SilviaCristinaCampinas]

Belíssimo!!!

[@OOlympus]

Really beautiful work of art! Greetings from Brazil! :D

[@TheArtfollower]

Congratulations beautiful work.. Can i ask you a question what kind a glue is this?

[@joelhutton9748]

What are you guys using to stain the mask darker?

[@saviyounpeters3416]

What was used to give it the antique effect?

[@olakrzeminska7702]

Amazing work! What type of glue do you use? Thank you in advance :)

[@barbarahughes9123]

This is absolutely beautiful! Fantastico! Did you use acrylic paint for the lips as well?

[@gliamicidipierrot7655]

Good evening, we apologize for the delay in the response. We use acrylic colors also for the lips. We use other types of color when we want to get some particular effect. Thanks for appreciation and interest.

[@asmaalshehri7099]

Hello What kind of white material do you use with paper? Is it a glue? what is his name ?

[@pippirrupnowdead4319]

We are makeing masks like this at school! I LOVE masks. And im glad i found this vidio!👍

[@cindygutierrez2382]

I wanted to know, can you breathe or speak while wearing the masks?

[@nishattasnim2795]

🤣🤣

[@pippirrupnowdead4319]

@@cindygutierrez2382 well your voice gets a little muffled, and yes, you CAN breathe when wereing a mask 🙃

[@nekeeart5206]

and what kind of paper is that?Thanks..

[@luzmarina2560]

Hola soy de Colombia me gustaría saber que papel usan gracias

[@Sunnykumar-wt3xz]

Super

[@spiritwildfiregaming1975]

May I ask what kind of paper is used?

[@zango3134]

Carta Lana paper, or wool paper. I’ve been searching everywhere to find the kind of glue they use, and not one artists explains this. Very disappointing… but I guess I’ll have to keep researching.

[@kylawiebe]

I am also wondering this! I am using paper Mache but it doesn’t look as smooth as this

[@nikolarankovic2798]

I have plastic base bat is not so beautiful lake alabaster but I think mey be silicon base in that case is not need paper

[@tinygalaxygamer5440]

What material are they?

[@roroadagger292]

Per il primo strato di carta, che carta avete utilizzato?

[@miwwie1504]

Anyone know what material the face mold is? It looks like concrete? I dont know...

[@leomarquezofficial1871]

How about the Boris brechja mask

[@patrasichani5226]

Πείτε μου παρακαλω. Όλες οι μάσκες φτιάχνονται από πεπιεσμενο χαρτί;

[@slurricrasher9923]

After some google searching it appears to be rather hard to come by the Carta Lana (the paper used, which goes by other names or identifications in other countries) in the US. Does anyone know where I could find a good supplier in the US or decently priced over seas shop? The only one that shows up is Squires Kitchen and they seem to be consistently out of stock. :(

[@indyartporductions8836]

What type of paint/primer is used for the whitening layer? Thank you

[@rob7349]

My impression has always been that Gesso is used as the primer layer, as it absorbs paint better. Of course I cannot say for certain, but it's what I use, and it yields good results.

[@marinacomasvidal4110]

I think it's water based latex paint

[@sunnyj171]

Hello I am an abstract Cosmic artist work with a lot of masks for my work where can I buy one of these mold make makers

[@stevenwhitman2758]

The paper that you use “carta Lana”. I have herd it also called wool paper. Is it a combination of actual wool and paper? Also the base white paint, is it water based?

[@gliamicidipierrot7655]

Good Evening, paper is a combination of paper and fabric fibers and the paint is water based acrylic

[@dtrahn1218]

Carta Lana translates as wool paper, and it might be, but it may also be a misnomer as paper with actual wool looks very thick. "Cotton wool" might be what's actually in it. Cotton wool is what the Brits call raw cotton. Carta Lana looks like paper made with old processed rags or cotton fibers - like handmade Indian cotton paper. The mulberry paper site I use has this grey cotton rag paper that looks just like what they are using - thin, flexible, but strong when dry. Non-toxic acrylic gesso makes a good mask primer. I use it over newspaper/flour paper mache.

[@TheArtfollower]

@@gliamicidipierrot7655 hello can you tell me what is the yellow layer it is some kind a varnish or mold release agent? Thank you

[@maximumeffort4043]

How do you make the mould to actually start it all??? Could you do a plaster of paris mould of your face in order to do it and customize the rest as you go along or????? ;-;

[@DelRae]

Maybe 3d printing then making a mold of that for a more modern technique would work too

[@maximumeffort4043]

@@DelRae I don't have a 3d printer, awesome idea and I'm not putting you down, it's just that I'm too poor to buy one 😅😂

[@DelRae]

@@maximumeffort4043 I mean uuuh there are people online that will 3d print your stuff for you..? I’ve personally never done it but I’ve hear multiple people use online stores it’s just they have to send a 3d digital model in that they can print (that’s the hard part), but I’m sure you could find online stores that also make porceline looking premade 3d masks that you could add clay to and then make a mould of that maybe? Although I’m sure at that point buying a porcelain mask raw from a seller might just be cheaper 😅😅

[@anoakenstaff]

@@maximumeffort4043There's services that can 3D print stuff for you, then?

[@mewtwoschaos]

Look at their channel, they have a video on how to make the mould.

[@skgartsstore4887]

What kind of paper?

[@haipa8765]

what's the name of that paper ? 😮

[@osuushiza8]

I'm new 2this & would love 2learn how to mask a cast. I'd also need2 know the glue type he uses along w the type of paper, specifically. Any1 mind pointing me2 the right direction where I can find a link, video, KZbin channel, or explain, plz? Thx much in advance. ♥

[@jbrunerse]

Hello! I am in love with your masks and your craft! I wholeheartedly have been looking to get into mask making like you, but am intimidated by the use of a mould. How can I find mask moulds similar to the one you use in this video? Thank you so much.

[@gliamicidipierrot7655]

hello! and Thanks for your comment. The molds are part of the artisans' equipment and ours are made by us. We can not tell you where you can find them ready.

[@Facade953]

Gli Amici di Pierrot Congratulations for your terrific work!Venician masks are the most beautiful works of art in the world!Love and respect from Greece!!!!

[@gliamicidipierrot7655]

Good evening, unfortunately the molds are not available because they are created by the artisans themselves.

[@vidadekpoper5145]

[@_Ha11oween]

Awesome video! Do you think you can make the SCP-035 mask?

@@gliamicidipierrot7655 Ok, I will view it later

[@tinygalaxygamer5440]

G mate they won’t have that

[@agrimonyscrafts2089]

what kind of paper are you using?

[@gliamicidipierrot7655]

It's a special paper, in Italian the name is "carta lana". It's a tissue fiber paper

[@agrimonyscrafts2089]

Thank you so much for your quick reply. I am from the USA and have tried newspaper and it works but not as good as I would like.I only do masks for a hobby right now but love doing them and would like a smoother look. No matter how careful I am my masks always have lumps. I also think if I had a good mold they might do better. So thank you so very much for the info I am going to try and find a better way of making them. Your masks look sooo beautiful and they look so professional. Thanks again and have a wonderful day.

[@amandadoverspike2949]

So beautiful!

[@cci321]

I couldn’t quite hear it but what did you say you had spread for the antique effect?

[@gliamicidipierrot7655]

we use bitumen to achieve the antique effect.

[@cci321]

Gli Amici di Pierrot thank you 🙏🏽. I hope you guys make more videos on how to make different masks! Or even how you guys make your molds!

[@rodrigoc.2411]

What kind of paper they use?

[@rob7349]

Carta Lana, or wool paper. It's essentially cotton mixed with paper fibers.
