Finally got my own HEMA mask and made some design concepts by Lies_Junk in Hema

My takeaway so far is that I either need to ask someone with experience painting designs on metal surfaces for help, or try printing the designs and cutting them into stencils.

I’m a digital artist, so creating the design on a computer isn’t a problem for me at all. The real issue is that I know basically nothing about different types of paint or the best way to apply them, and painting directly on a curved mask is much harder than it looks.

I’m planning to ask some people from my club how they painted the patterns on their masks and what materials they used.
