I made this scary mask after watching a movie about the Comanche Indians. They were a bloodthirsty people, brutally defending their lands. The mask turned out just as bloodthirsty. Rate my work.

Incidentally; I found your "up-cycled" fencing mask quite amusing. You had fun there! Me? Épeé captain in college; so the mask is like part of me of course. Fun! Would be fun to walk out on the piste in real match in that! Just temporarily! Great "psych!"
I do not find anywhere here that you have permission to use the Comanche name. They are not "gone", you know; and your statements about them being a "bloodthirsty people" - are based according to this on - one "movie"? In reality then, you know the Comanche via Hollywood- a very iffy source of information. Who am I? Wife and daughter are enrolled Oglala Lakota; another people with lots of Hollywood unhistory. I am part Narragansett- probably. I strongly advise you to stop calling this work Comanche- until you have their explicit permission. Of course the Europeans knew them mostly through war- that was the only option given. But also of course- they were a whole people- whole culture. Still are. https://comanchenation.com/our-nation/about-us
Forgive me, of course, but I can call my works whatever I want. Yes, this name came to me after watching one film. I know that in fact the people of Kamancha defended their lands and their families. But this is just a mask, this is my craft and has nothing to do with the real existing culture. Have a nice day!

I should not be looking at this- I'm about to go to sleep. I must think happy thoughts about bunnies, and kittens, not this monstrous masterpiece. Well done!
