I think they would be pretty kewl if used in the right situation. Like some kinda of Big Game or something of the sort.

Yeah, they can't spell fiend either. Shoddy workmanship.

The idea is NOT new, BTW.

This is early 90's.

And this is also early 90's. Old timers may recognise the "Whipper Snapper" base masks there. These were made in the UK, and if I could find the maker of these, I STILL WANT a tiger mask, but now for my Spectras!

there used to be loads of people using stuff like this but skulls and clown faces seemed most popular.....like the one in those links tho! way cool!

I think I figured out what this guy is selling here, and I think I can replicate it without breaking a sweat for 1/4 the price.

If there's sufficient intrest, I'll do it and see if I'm right.

They were made or at the very least sold by a guy called Gary who was originally in the Blue Berets (paintball team !) and connected to Westpoint Billericay (all these military connections ) and then he formed a new team based on a sort of D&D game and called them the Harliquins it was him who posed for a cover of the magazine in the pre PGI form wearing a mask he had made. He lives in my town still (saw him a couple of months ago) but he is so out of paintball so unlikely that a mask could be made but if I can find him...his in-laws family lives in the next street to me I'll let you know.

they look soooo cool, if ur up for it tyger u can make me a wolf one with big white teeth with blood on em

Mark : That would be awfully kind of you, thank you.

Ally : You can probably DIY, actually. If what I see is right, all this person did was take a rubber halloween mask, cut out a hole for the goggles, and possibly hot-glue it to a JT mask. I say this becasue thier 'werewolf' I recognise from this year's halloween stash.

At least that's what this guy's looks like. I still want one of the resin "Snarl" ones...

Before any of you even think of ordering or making any mask like the above they will not be allowed at series2003 and i presume also Midland masters because current UKPSF rules state that paintball mask must be used in an unmodified state,

And that is why you can be pulled out during the game if your mask is turned up when the game starts.
