Custom paper maché masks, sculptures, etc

Custom pieces are temporarily unavailable.

Apologies for any inconvenience! I will become available for custom pieces again around mid-April of 2025. Feel free to get in touch if you want to discuss a project for after that time. I’ll leave the rest of this page as-is below, for reference…

Interested in ordering a custom papier-mâché mask, sculpture, cosplay armor/accessories, or other stuff made by me? Email me at manning@manningkrull.com for an estimate! Some things to keep in mind for commission orders:

Please tell me as much as you can about what you have in mind: What would you like? How big? When do you need it? Feel free to send me pictures for reference!
Most of my big paper maché commissions take about one month to complete, so please plan accordingly. If you need it faster, I can sometimes accommodate this but a rush fee would apply.
Once we’ve worked out the details, I’ll ask for a 50% deposit (non-refundable), and the remaining 50% when the piece is completed. I’m happy to send you pics of my progress along the way.
Customer pays shipping (often a couple hundred bucks), or you can pick up your piece if you’re near New Orleans.
All sales are final and non-refundable.
Of course skulls and monsters are my specialty, but I’m happy to make other things as well; animals, objects, etc.

Pricing — For reference, most of my masks, sculptures, cosplay props, Halloween decorations, etc take anywhere from 40 to 120 hours of work, depending on how complicated the design is. As a general guideline, below are some rough prices for some pieces I’ve made. Please email me at manning@manningkrull.com for an estimate for any kind of project you have in mind. (Note: the following pieces are not for sale; they’re either already sold or in my permanent collection. But if you want something similar I can make ’em again.)

Of course these prices are just a guideline to give you an idea. Smaller pieces and/or less complicated pieces could certainly cost less than the above. Let me know what you have in mind and I’m happy to give you a free estimate. Feel free to email me and let’s discuss!

Shipping fees — I ship all my masks and sculptures by UPS. A couple examples for reference: the shipping cost for my 5-foot alligator was about $65, and for the three-headed sea serpent it was about $125. These figures include both the shipping fee and packing materials, and both items were shipped to locations within the US.
