We had a Halloween Contest at work (Seniors community). My 110 year old friend and I went as Little Red Riding Hood and The Big Bad Wolf. We won 1st prize.
It wasn’t super easy to build - a good challenge and worth the effort.

Very cool mask. The assembly was pretty complicated for my 11-year-old son to do on his own, but I was able to put it together over the course of 3 evenings. I tried using the glue that was recommended in the FAQ but ended up using crazy glue for it to dry faster for a quicker assembly. My son ended up making origami claws to go with it. He loved the finished product and received a lot of compliments on it trick or treating.

Fascinating build. Excellent materials, and design. I did wear it with eyeglasses underneath. Many people complimented the appearance and style. It is the first time I attempted a build, and it was challenging, but not frustrating. Very satisfied, and I look forward to my next Papercraft World experience.

Made this with my daughter for halloween. So much fun and the result was amazing (set aside some time, though! It is not an easy build). She received tons of compliments on it!

Very fun to craft by myself, and very happy that they had a practice run with the heart before trying out the actual thing itself. The setup and construction was super straightforward, would recommend for anyone!

I wore this to a halloween event and everyone was very impressed by it. I have a very large head, so I had to leave a couple bits around the bottom unglued to get it on my head.
I'm still a novice. I've done two papercraft before this. It took me probabaly 7-11 hours to complete spread out over several days.
There were some parts around the ear that felt like it needed a 4th-dimensional fold, I had to hack it and reglue it. But generally it wasn't a very difficult build. I had a lot of fun making it and looking forward to makings something

Packaging was great.

Last October I participated in the audio production of The Hunted - a werewolf story audio drama. As a point of inspiration I built this mask and the photo was used as part of the promo for the project. The mask was not easy but a great challenge and most rewarding. Worth every penny. Thanks!

Was fairly easy to put together but had to add some finishing touches..

This was a fun project to do with my 8yo daughter! She mostly did it on her own and was very proud when she finished it

So my mask was used so that our year 3 children( age 7-8 years) could interview the big bad wolf they absolutely loved it and now the mask is on display in our school.

The wolf was very difficult but overall it came out wonderfully.

This was my first one and I loved doing it. Tip: don’t use too much glue.

I used this paper craft mask as part of my Halloween costume this year, and it was an absolute smash-hit. Most people did think it was a dragon, but werewolf came through for everyone that mattered. ;) I had to make some significant enhancements in order for it to actually be wearable, however, and there are some areas I think it could be improved, but overall the result was stunning and a lot of fun to build.
The assembly process of the paper itself took about 3 days, and while it was easy in the first stages, it became progressively more challenging as it went along. The tolerances for fitting all the pieces together are very tight, especially once you get to the larger parts at the back and along the sides. The kit is very well-printed and cut, and I had no trouble removing the parts from the sheets without any tearing. The directions are OK, but I think they would benefit from more guidance for what glue to use, and what order in which you should assemble the parts. I used rubber cement for the initial assembly, but had to supplement with additional fixatives to make sure it held together. I got very frustrated with the large points at the back and top, because the tolerances are so tight that they inevitably started coming apart. I had to use tape on the outside in many places, and creatively hide it, otherwise it wouldn't hold together. The top two horns also aren't aligned properly, but no one noticed except me. ;)
In order to make the mask actually wearable, I also added chemical spray foam to the interior so it had more structure to it, and my head could rest on a flat surface. Without doing so, you can't really wear it as a mask effectively. It's far too fragile, and it won't sit stable on your head without that supplemental internal structure. Don't expect to be able to wear it too many times, either, because depending on the size of your head, donning and removing the mask can cause joints to separate and/or tear. I had to cut a small amount of paper out of the lower jaw in order to fit it over my big nose. ;)
You will also want to use some paint to cover the interior of the mouth, and to black out the white paper seams, which can show prominently. I used red paint for the lower jaw interior, and black paint on the inside of the teeth. The effect was great, and really improved how the mask looked in practice. Grab yourself a black balaclava to make your face not show, and no one will question how awesome you look.
I went a step further, and added some red LED lighting inside the mouth, and I custom-poured some epoxy "eye lights" that I fitted inside using hot glue to backlight the eyes. The result was striking, and gave it a profoundly enhanced effect, particularly in darker spaces.
Overall, I really like this paper craft, and it photographs incredibly well, even despite a lot of imperfections that you'll see only if you look closely. I didn't give it 5 stars only because the assembly will probably frustrate you at one point or another, and it'll need some extra work that's not in the instructions in order to actually have it function as a mask, but just LOOK AT IT! It's worth the work if you want to look like an absolute badass, and all I had to do was pair it with a suit and long-tailed pea coat to complete the ultimate cybernetic werewolf costume.

Nice. Some parts are dificult to match. I added two plastic red eyes with a led lights and gives more spectacular effect on the mask.
Maybe a solution for the white interior. I've painted in black and gets more cool.

Relatively easy to put together - although I did a lot of it with double sided tape because I was too impatient to wait for it to dry. Only downside was having to drink my beer through a straw wearing it, but I did win a costume contest with it so worth it.
Luciana J.
Fun to build and nice result! Loved it!
Damian M.
In all honesty I must've clearly misread the site. I didn't know I'd have to put the mask together piece by piece... I gave it away to my nieces and they enjoyed putting it together
Erien R.
Beautiful mask! Took a couple hours to make but I enjoyed and it's worth the effort. I'm sure I will order again for my family!
Penny B.
Love it. I bought one to myself for upcoming party and I'm so excited right now! I will definitely gonna order more!
Maria O.
It was fun to make. My partner and I enjoyed building it!
Susan L.
Pretty dope, I love the improvement of this mask vs the old mask! I like the designs, colors, instructions, everything about this mask. I hope you release a Donkey Mask someday. I'm looking forward to your future products!
