I was thinking about making this for these two fellows
Could be pretty dusty and/or chilly peeking out there

That was just a test.
Must figure out how to do it the right way.
But with their head sets, goggles and these face masks, they might turn out looking not bad in the end.

In my experience, it is a bit of a challenge making those particular figures half way presentable. You seem to have found an excellent solution!

Hahahaha, yeah....a bankrobber.
As I said, still trying several options, and no final solution at the moment.
Maybe with the goggles it will look a bit better
If not, well they just have to stand the dust and cold humid European days with their faces up in the wind.

These are just try-outs
Nothing glued onto the faces yet.
Before I will, I must put some white glue on the cut-off edges to prevent them to start fraying.
I think I will paint the masks in a camo pattern or so.
