Feral Orc Mask

Epic Effects’ Green Feral Orc is a full Orc Mask with an animalistic appearance, perfect for the orc who has gotten in touch with his inner beast. This mask has an orc’s distinct features, including: a low, furred brow, serrated pointy ears and a rounded nose with nostrils drawn up in a sneer. The shape of this mask is skull-like, with leathery skin modeled with creases, deep eyes, and lined cheeks with expressive cheekbones. Hand painted scars and heavy veins add detail to a dark green complexion, achieving an aggressive appearance while also maintaining realism.

The mask is open at the mouth, displaying the wearer’s lower lips and most of the chin. This leaves room for the wearer to speak and be heard properly, and allows a much larger range of expressions. Add your own orc teeth to create an even greater effect! The mask is made from thick 100% natural high-quality latex, making it strong and durable, ensuring long life and extended reuse. The mask is made with good room for breathing and ventilation, thus improving comfort with extended wear. The look and style of the mask can be modified by highlighting it with Epic Effects' Water Based Makeup from event to event.

• Available in Green & Black, Ocher & Green and Unpainted colors

HISTORY

• J.R.R. Tolkien’s 20th century The Lord of the Rings series describes orcs as brutish, aggressive beings with a taste for human flesh
• Tolkien’s writings influenced many role-playing games, and are now seen in such games as Dungeons and Dragons, Warhammer and Warcraft
