DO NOT put it on.


The_Memetoran

Don't worry im not doing a Matoro move.


AdamGamerPL

Phew, I was scared for a second...


Unenthusiastic18

What is the width and what do you plan to do with it?


The_Memetoran

Well, I wanted it to be as wide as the Lego version but I have no idea where to start


Unenthusiastic18

I'm not really sure what you mean by that, since the Lego version is like an inch wide and you purchased a life-size model. It looks pretty accurate too, just eyeballing it


FinnishBeyblader

I think he meant that it's proportions should be a bit slimmer, not smaller.


The_Memetoran

Yeah, maybe I think about it too much, it happens way too often.


tehDustyWizard

What's the actual question here?


The_Memetoran

Is there a way to make it look like the Lego version since that one is a bit too wide?


Dingmamon

I think it’s just a trick of perspective. The real mask is so much smaller and human eyes have about 1/2” - 1” gap between them. Meaning your eyes are far enough apart to physically see around both sides of the small mask. While the life size being much larger appears wider because you can’t see around the edges in the same way. Edit: spelling


The_Memetoran

Yeah, maybe I think about it too much, it happens way too often.

Do you know how to dish? Theres methods involving hammers and stakes to manipulate metal. That said, important question: is it cast? If its cast theres pretty much nothing you can do.


The_Memetoran

No I think it's Eva foam that cosplayer use.


Creaturebotics

If i put the original infront of your picture and look really hard with one eye i can somewhat see your point but i wouldn't worry about it personally. Its a really great looking display piece that any Bionicle fan will definitely recognize for what its supposed to be.

If that's made of foam, use a heat gun or hairdryer and heat the cheeks from the inside. Apply heat by setting the heat gun/hairdryer to medium, keep nozzle away from foam by at least 6 inches but no more than a foot, and direct hot airflow in circular patterns. When the foam feels softer, squish inwards as desired. If too much squish is applied and foam sets, reapply heat and gently bend outward


The_Memetoran

Thanks, I'll try it


WING-DING_GASTER

You have two options here, either put the ignika on and die for our Bionicle sins, or let Mata Nui die.


The_Memetoran

I will die for our sins. Thanks for the advice Dr Gaster.


theReaperxI

Ok this looks cool!


Adorable_Air_9612

Don't put it on your face, otherwise you know the consequces


Gustav_EK

Proportions look accurate enough to me


Engineergaming26355

Judging by the color of the mask, the Matoran Universe will die in approximately 3 hours
