My custom painted masks

Hey everyone! So many of you are asking 'where can I find this' after seeing my custom painted masks, and I totally get it! Crafting these was a journey, and I'd love to share a bit more about how you can achieve similar looks, especially for the SCP Overlord M50 Avon mask and my Division Hunter inspired piece. For the M50 Avon, which sparked a lot of interest thanks to its appearance in the YouTube short film SCP Overlord, I actually started with a replica M50 mask. Finding the base can be the first step. You can often find airsoft or prop replicas online. The key for me was then customizing it to match the gritty, tactical feel of the film. I used specific paints to get that weathered, battle-worn look, similar to what you'd see on tactical gear. The OCR picks up on details like a 'tactical helmet with night vision' and an 'assault rifle' in the mirror selfie – these are all elements that help complete the immersive aesthetic of an SCP operative. I really focused on the small details to make it feel authentic to the world of Overlord. Now, let's talk about the Division Hunter mask! This one is a personal favorite because, as I mentioned, The Division is my top game franchise. Recreating that iconic, intimidating look was a blast. I started with a generic ballistic mask and then went to town with custom paintwork to get that signature rugged, almost menacing, appearance. The jagged-tooth design on some of the masks in my photos, often paired with a tactical vest sporting 'Mason' and 'Airborne' patches, really drives home that hunter vibe. If you're looking to create your own Division Hunter cosplay, focus on layering tactical gear. Bits like knee pads, elbow pads, and a good chest rig can really transform a simple outfit into a formidable Division agent or hunter. Don't forget the details like pouches and props – even a prop 'assault rifle' (always handled responsibly and safely!) can complete the look for photos. Many of you also asked about the full 'mirror selfie gun' aesthetic. While the focus is on the masks, achieving that complete tactical presence involves more than just the face. Think about integrating a tactical helmet, maybe some prop night vision goggles, and other elements of a full loadout. It's about building a character from head to toe. For my Division Hunter, I spent a lot of time researching the specific gear and clothing textures to make it look like it just stepped out of the game. My next big project? I'm super excited about making more cosplays from The Division, especially a Last Man Battalion (LMB) cosplay. Their aesthetic is so distinct, and I think it would be a fantastic challenge. If you're into cosplay, don't be afraid to experiment with paint and different materials. It's amazing what you can create with a little imagination and patience. Happy crafting!
