This community is all kinds of interested in the art of masks and masquerade, be it through 3D sculpture in the form of mask making with wood, leather, plastic, papier mache e.t.c, cardboard cutouts and such, using make-up to distort and contort you face and features, face painting or simply through designing beautiful peices to change the dimentions of an individuals features. We also welcome drawings and paintings of people, creatures, animals e.t.c wearing masks. Come inside and share your dreamings...
As well as the mask itself, do feel free to post anything at all to do with Masquerade and Masquerade balls in general, for example immence ballgowns, headpeices and crowns e.t.c, but do bare in mind that this isn't all that we are about, and not to post them too often. ;)
If you post more than one image, the image is rather large or your post is just terribly long in general, it would be most appreciated if you would adopt the use of the LJ-cut as illustrated here. :)
We fully welcome advertisments of websites specific to the theme as well actual events pertaining to the Masquerade, but please refrain from promoting your new communities unless they are directly associated to the interests of the community. Otherwise
important:We do not tolerate any kind of flamming, spamming e.t.c. While discussions and debates are healthy and good sometime or another, if it turns terribly nasty, those involved shall be given a servere warning, or if disasterous, shall be banned. If this continues, all parties involved, I am afraid shall be banned. Thankyou. :p
