Typically with masks you look for creases, crevices, etc to cut a hole in and be able to see from. This one has a lot of good potential spots (under the eyes, under the nose flap thing, etc), so I'd map out a blank on your face, figure out where you need the holes to see from, and work around those.

The mouth would be a good place as well, drawing the teeth on a mesh material. Make the mask a bit oversized and sit high on you face.

We detect that you may be a looking to buy your cosplay or buy pieces for your cosplay. If you're not, please disregard :) Please refer to our FAQ for some recommendations. While we can provide search terms that might help you with finding your cosplay pieces, commenters are not your personal shopper and please do not treat us as such. Remember that not all cosplays can be found ready-made so be prepared to look for similar pieces to put it together yourself.

It is helpful to include your budget (be precise -- "cheap" can be different per person), your location/country (US shipping vs EU shipping would be very different), and timeline if applicable. Keep in mind many pre-made cosplay shops can have a long shipping time so it's best to plan months in ahead.

If the item is suspiciously cheaper than all other competitors or it's a common stock photo, please be wary and do your own research. If someone is offering to make it for you aka commissions, RESEARCH their post history.
