Vanniek71 Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 She’s all done! Had JF Aumais wrap it before getting it shipped stateside. Wanted to do something a little different, as I’ve always had dark themed masks, so went matte white with just a few touches of color. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chile57 Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 Looks good @Vanniek71 - like the changeup of a predominantly white Venom mask. One question - what are the outlined white pieces on the crown of the lid coming down to the center of the top of the cage intended to be?

With wraps JF was saying there is a seam, so maybe he used that to blend it easier? I didn't mind it so said go with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chile57 Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 (edited) @Vanniek71 ah - got it. Didn't know if it was supposed to be a "design element". Doesn't look out of place - just intrigued as a Marvel aficionado. Sidebar - was this the final answer on your Medusa strapping conundrum?

It's done to blend the seam in with the design other wise it would stand out bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agrare Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 My first protechsport masks, ordered in January and just showed up this weekend. Fichaud mold, full kevlar, chin cup, interior polish, and hidden harness. I'm extremely impressed with the build and the fit is perfect. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chile57 Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 @agrare navy on the one? Leaving them as-is or paint/wrap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agrare Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 (edited) @chile57 yeah exactly it is navy, that's the one I'll be using the most since it matches my pads and team colors. Probably be looking to get that one wrapped or just a big team vinyl logo and leave the white one as is.

Would you mind giving me a couple basic measurements? I'm really thinking I'm going to get a Fichaud as my time is almost here. Maybe outside of the cheekbones measurement and at the temples. I'm a small guy and this being a small mold, I think it'll be a good fit. I didn't send a head mold this time because the fit was so bad last time I ordered one, I just took measurements this time.

Thankfully I've had no hockey going on so it has made no real difference. Overall I am extremely happy with the result. I mean, it's a Michel Doganieri mask after all! I went for full kevlar and the Theodore mold, which as his website says is the same as the Lalime, Jiggy, Denis, Thibault, Garon, Luongo, Fichaud, Aebischer and Brochu. I've noticed some confusion about this, but I'd put any variances down to adjusting the mold to the individual head mold. Rubatex foam and chin sling. I also asked for Lefebrvre style cage clips and foam, which he hasn't done unfortunately. Reading back our emails I possibly wasn't clear enough about that, and I'll get him to send me some clips. The stock rubatex design is simpler anyway, so will be easier to replace. Unfortunately I had a huge problem with the painter (which Michel was pissed off about too). Basically the guy didn't get in touch despite me repeatedly asking him to in order to discuss my design. Never discussed the design with me, just cracked on and didn't listen. Only got in touch when he was in the middle of the job, and still didn't do specific things I asked for. I rejected the work because it was nothing like what I asked for, and it was really poor quality. It went back to Michel and he put it back to white for me for free. He was very sympathetic about this and angry at the painter. Unfortunately I still need to pay something for the crap work as the painter charged Michel to get the mask back, and of course I don't want him to be out of pocket even though he's told me it's up to me whether I pay for it. So overall a bit of a mixed experience. Really good communication from Michel, but let down by some details missing and the experience with the painter (which wasn't Michel's fault at all). For the price and the quality I would definitely order from him again though. Hey Redrook, Nice mask, is it me or does your chin look really short? Do you have a better side view shot, doesn't look like the chin drops much. Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyper180 Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Thanks for the interior images Zerogravitas. It looks so much nicer having the inside done as well as it looks like it has been made nicely inside and out. I know it does nothing to the performance of the mask but nice to have a smooth surface to wipe off and even easier to maintain and replace the foam in the future.

Thanks @Hyper180 Absolutely, the first is pretty representative of the texture on the interior. Unless you are really looking for it it looks perfect. Here's the inside of the white mask for reference. I'm extremely happy with these after about 3 months. The paint/clear-coat is holding up great there are no chips at all. I can't recommend these enough I'm sure you'll be very happy. Make sure to post some pics when you get yours. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you. Hey @WannabeGoalie kind of a hard measurement to get without pulling the cage but it was about 5.08" across the cheekbone pads and my head size is about 22.5", I wore a medium in a 960 and a CCM. I went with the head mold and it came out great but Michel did mention that sometimes it can be tricky. What was off with your last one? Was it too big?

With the head mold it was big so I just threw in the towel on that this time. I wear a 7 1/8” hat and would say my face is on the smaller/narrower side. The measurement I referred to was my actual face measurement. . I currently have a Luongo that fits better but has some thicker padding. 3/8”throughout I think and a 1/8 or 1/4” shim on the cheeks. which padding do you like better? Thanks for the replies.

I like the black foam much better, it is much softer than the beige. if I were to order again I would go with the black foam in both.
