Craig Jones is the sampler/keyboardist in the band Slipknot. He is a very individualistic person and is often said to be the darkest member of the band. Although the rest of the members did show up in public unmasked, Craig did everything he could to remain anonymous. He never gave interviews, he left the shows early to prevent being seen without a mask, and up until recently the general public had no idea what he looks like. A really creepy fellow indeed! And his mask is even creepier. His first mask was a driving helmet with spikes attached but the latest version of it is a light leather version with nine inch nails attached. His mask represents pain. The mask has really small holes for the eyes and even smaller slits for the nose while across the mouth a long silver zip is placed.
If you ever thought how it would be really cool to try to make this mask at home but you never thought that there is the possibility that it may actually work, I have good news. This article will explain how to make a good copy of the Craig’s mask, so follow the instructions step by step and you’ll be surprised how easy it was.
To make this mask you will need- tin( aluminium) foil, black and grey(or silver) duct tape, zipper, barbecue sticks and scissors.
Step one- Mould the aluminium foil so it fit your head. You can do it on your own head or on a model. After that gently cover the foil with black duct tape. Keep applying the tape until you completely cover the foil.
Step two- Cut out the holes for the eyes and apply two additional strips of tape to the top an bottom of the each eye hole. This way the shape of the eye holes will look more like a square and not like a circle. Also make a slit in the back of the mask so you can put it on without tearing it.
Step three- Measure the zipper and cut out a hole in which you will fit it. Fix the zipper from the inside by putting duct tape, or even better- use a superglue.
Step four- Now it’s time to make the spikes. Add barbecue sticks on the mask and glue them of fix them from the inside. When you have done that wrap each one of them in grey or silver duct tape so they look like the real metal spikes.
This US band is not only popular for it’s modern mix of trash, heavy metal black and dead metal but also for unique public and video performances. Yes I am talking about the controversial masks. They have been accused to use masks as an advertising tool, but never the less, this unique band hasn’t lost on its popularity due to this accusations. They keep explaining that the masks are the representation of the feelings music provokes in them , and fans are just going crazy with these masks. The masks of the members have evolved from the first time this band was introduced in 1998, just like their music and the members themselves. Every one of the 9 members has a different mask that depicts his stage personality and feelings.
0. Sid Wilson wears a modified oxygen mask. He claims that he suffers from an organic brain syndrome and that he has to wear a mask to stop the oxygen from getting into his head.
1.Joey Jordison had an emotionless mask that is supposed to show that his stage personality doesn’t have emotions or hides the emotions really good. This is a traditional Japanese kabuki mask.
2. Paul Gray’s mask represents death and suffocation.
3. Chris Fehn’s mask often suffers modifications but it is recognizable by its bondage SM style and a very long nose. The meaning of it is unknown even for him.
4. Jim Root has a joker-like mask. The meaning of it is literally that, he is a prankster.
5. Craig Jones- if you ask me this dark mask is the scariest and the most complex one. The meaning of his mask is absolute pain and the mask itself is a racing helmet with spikes attached.
6. Shawn Crahan wears a clown mask. This mask represents his own death because he wants it to be funny. He actually made the mask himself.
7. Mick Thompson has a ghost-like mask that represents the hate. His mask shows the evolution and growth of the hate.
8.Corey Taylors mask is a white crash test dummy-like mask that represents the hate and the pain.
The members of the band don’t just wear masks but also wear matching full body jumpsuits and they like to refer to them selves not by names but by number 0-8. The main idea for masking is not being unique but the desire to focus on the music and not the physical presentation.
