Exquisitely Creepy Steampunk Gas Mask
http://blog.wired.com/ gadgets/ 2008/ 07/ exquisitely-cre.html
This rather disturbing object is called the Steampunk Gas Mask 9. It marries the compulsory Steampunk materials, leather and brass, with a genuine Soviet-era gas mask. As an object, it is beautiful, and exquisitely crafted. The prop makers on Doctor Who could learn a thing or two from the tinkerer responsible, Bob Basset. But as apparel? No. This should never, ever be worn, at least not outside the bedroom. As Meredith Scheff writes over at the Steampunk Workshop, "even gimps are getting into the steampunk".

Steampunk gas mask for an awesome and creepy Halloween
http://www.slipperybrick.com/2008/07/steampunk-gas-mask-for-...I can’t think of anything better or more creepy then this mask for your next Halloween. If I saw this face ask me for candy I’d slam the door shut and look around for Hellboy. Also great for those into bondage and S&M. It’s based on a real Soviet era mask and made from leather and brass. Pretty good work of art. I doubt very much that it still functions as an actual gas mask. It will however instill fear into all those who see it. So, basically if you own this you can’t help but become a bad guy and take over the world. [Gadgetlab]

What's special about this isn't that it looks incredibly creepy and incredibly cool, it's that it looks kinda similar to that Nazi villain from the first Hellboy movie. Maybe it's just us and our excitement for Hellboy II that we're even thinking of buying this on eBay for $650 to use in our "LARPing". Yeah, that's the ticket.
