Recomended Mask Painters?
I don't wanna start a war over who's better than who and whatnot.
If I could get some opinions on a mask painter who does good work and has a reasonable wait time. Pricing and location is not an issue.
Please and thank you.

I have had my masks painted by Mark Hart, Ron Slater and Don McCelland at MacMasks. Mark and Don did very good jobs, but Don @ MacMasks was by far the best paint job I have ever had... he is now doing paint for a very well known mask maker and everyone that I have had recommended him to are very happy with their paint jobs.
I think there are other mask painters out there who are very good but I have never had the privelage to have my mask painted by them.
Good luck and choose your painter for the style you are looking for... some painters are stronger with different styles than others.

I'll recommend Tony Jarrett at Masked Expressions. He has my mask right now, should have it back in a couple weeks. Has been very willing to involve me in the process. Has done Cam Ward's mask a couple times, as well as other guys in the Hurricanes system. Top notch person and work.

I would go with Doug at Wzlhed. Very reasonable prices, helpful, and most important does amazing work. Even though its not on his website, he did Nitty's new mask, Garth Snow's yeti masks, and Scott Munroe and Martin Houle of the Philly Phantoms.

Everyone who has had there mask painted and had a good experience will recomend that guy. They all generally do good work.
There are things you need to determine before selecting the best painter for you.
For example Coveted/Acme Art does beautifull work but he has a particular style and you have to determine if that is for you. If you want a portrait type painting then another painter may be your guy. If price and time is a factor Tony at masked Xpressions may be your guy.
Check out the show off your mask thread or the different mask painter web sites and see if there style suites what you want done and just contact them most are pretty open to having conversations about your project and answering questions, and gernerally good people.

I have to say I really liked working with Doug at Weasel Head. He did a great job on my mask and was very helpful with getting the exact look I wanted. Very good turn around time and reasonable pricing.
Just my $.02
