Lets see your goalie mask. Tell us whats the name of the team you play for or the theme / meaning, who painted it, etc...

[NYIslanders21]

First is my "Stars and Stripes" mask. This mask is a Fusion mask painted by Andrew Manning of Air Trix Studios. Its colors represent the Islanders and the theme represent USA along with my grandfathers who served in the Military and all those who serve now. Each side has a military portrait of my grandfathers and the back plate has their birch and death dates, On one side is has the Statue of Liberty and on the other the Bald Eagle (also pays tribute to my favorite goalie Ed Belfour) There is ghosted stars and the American Seal when light hits they appear and on the chin it says Home of the Brave. Some of the stars on the mask have metallic paint like Lundqvist uses to give it some extra pop. Also, the diamond on the back is for my dog Diamond who is my best friend

My next mask is a Bauer which was also painted by Andrew Manning of Air Trix Studio's. This mask he called the "Tortoise and the Hate", this mask just shows what else im into which is Old 30's Ford hot rods and shows some of my pets driving them just in an Ed Roth "Rat Fink" Style. The turtle driving a red 23' T-Bucket is actually my first pet ever which is still alive driving my T-Bucket. The other dog is my dog Diamond driving my dream car a 32' Ford Roadster. On the back is my other dog my Boston Terrier and an over exaggerated version of my wife. The number 20 is my goalie number. These characters where designed by Andrew and hand painted along with hand painted pin stripping dont by him. The V8 logo on the chin is just the Ford V8 logo to add more of that hot rod vibe. We made the Bauer logo above the cage look like a retro 50s style  and used a hot rod scallop design

Very cool topic, not a goalie but love seeing nice artwork on the masks. I'll definitley be checking in from time to time to see all the cool masks.

Warwick 357 Miller with Doug Wager (Weaselhead) paint. Tribute to Doug's design he did for Garth Snow. Doug is local to me, and I had the opportunity to hold Snow's Penguins mask in my hands many years ago before Snow actually received it and I've always been fixated with the design.

Love the Miller cut. I always wanted the Belfour / Turco style

This isn't mine, its my brothers. His very first mask had this design hand-painted and he finally got it updated and done by the same artist. Definitely one of my favorites, and I'm not being biased because he is my brother. Haha

[NYIslanders21]

I thought your brother was on here?

I thought your brother was on here?

He was about a year ago, but never really got into it.

Carey Price Impersonation

 

 

[NYIslanders21]

Looking good...but if your Price impersonation should include some white powdery substance? 

[markov94]

Your mask reminds me of when Andy Moog was with the HABS...

Painted by Doug Wager. It's not 100% finished, but I am too excited not to share it with you guys. I play for the Fort Saskatchewan Traders, hense the logo's. I am so excited about this mask! It's not even 100% finished and it already looks a million times better than I imagined it could. Great work so far by Mr. Wager!

 

 

[NYIslanders21]

Thats the best when your vision becomes reality and it looks better than you could ever think!

[MapleSyrup]

It certainly is! I cannot wait to get a picture of the backplate and an assembled picture from Doug, tonight. So stoked to wear this bad boy.

[MapleSyrup]

Here it is, completed and assembled.
