From video: Painting the Free Bird Mask With Metallic Paint
Published: February 1, 2026

Video Description

If you'd like to download the free bird mask and make one of your own, you can find the pattern here: https://www.ultimatepapermache.com/free-bird-mask-pattern I borrowed the bright colors from a Plate-Billed Mountain Toucan, but the mask is made to fit a human head, so some of the color spots aren't where they would be on the real bird. And I added some white lines around the color shapes, just to make them stand out more. In other words, I used the toucan as inspiration, and then used my imagination - just like you'll probably do when you make your own mask. :) Links to items mentioned in the video (some are affiliate links): Metallic paint set: https://amzn.to/3NSCKWi Folk Art Black Flash color shift paint: https://amzn.to/4aa7Lwu Grainer or Wisp brush for fur (and feathers): https://amzn.to/3LXKPbN Free bird mask pattern download: https://www.ultimatepapermache.com/free-bird-mask-pattern Video showing how to put bird mask pattern together: https://youtu.be/Eb762xasxnE The photo I used for a model, from Mike's Birds: https://www.flickr.com/photos/pazzani/47792081302/ More bird mask patterns for Mardi Gras: https://www.ultimatepapermache.com/bird-masks When your bird mask is finished, I hope you'll come back to my site and show it off.
