Once this was done I cut out a hole onto the the larger piece, in the shape of the ones on the movie mask, using an exacto knife. Once this was done I traced these onto another foamie piece, then cut about 1cm inside of where I traced, so it would be smaller. To make these I cut out two roughly rectangular pieces of foamie, then I cut down the top to match the movie.

I started by cutting out paper templates, and trying them on to get a rough idea of how to start the headpiece. 'IT DOESN'T MATTER WHO WE ARE, WHAT MATTERS IS OUR PLAN ' The headpiece was very annoying, because I wanted it to fit tightly, so I had to do a lot of planning. One other thing that I added later to the mask was add then sculpt some clay around the top part of the mask, and by the mouthpiece to make it more authentic. Once all these tubes were done I added detail by cutting out black foamie to bulk up and reinforce certain parts parts of the mask and use some black fabric on the edges of the mask to cover up the edges.

I did not measure anything, but I looked a the Bane mask from the movie for reference.

All of the tubes around these four tubes were straws, which go into pen tubes, which connect on the mask. To finish them off I put the top end of the Technic tubes into cut-down Pen caps and glue it all together For the 2 bottom tubes I did the same as the top 4 tubes, except I didn't use the black foamie, and instead of the Technic tubes going into pen caps I just used more pen tubes. I then cut the tubes down to size and put some paper clip wire inside them for stability. For the 4 tubes on the top I started by cutting out 4 identical small circular pieces of black foamie, then 4 identical plastic tubes out of pens, for the Lego Technic tubes to go into. I stared with the ones that go onto the mouthpiece. After that I started to make the tubes for the mask. Once that was done I positioned it, then glued it in then cut down the mask, so it wasn't too big. PAINT MASK I started the mask by cutting out where the mouthpiece would go, then I cut out a piece of plastic from a plastic ice-cream bucket and drilled holes in it. 'NO ONE CARED WHO I WAS UNTIL I PUT ON THE MASK' I used a 3M paint respirator for the base of my bane mask.
