We've seen a number of interesting takes on masks in Japan lately, including glow-in-the dark gamer masks and transforming horror creature masks from a special effects artist.
Japanese Twitter user Shuka (@5huKA_11), however, is a stop motion animator and "mecha designer" who specializes in crafting cyberpunk-themed items and accessories. The talented artist has recently gained some attention on Twitter for designing an awesome cyberpunk-themed Japanese demon mask!
The cyberpunk creation is a twist on traditional Japanese demon (oni) masks featured in Noh theater. Shuka says the mask provides a good field of vision, and plans to install mesh to make the wearer's eyes not visible from the outside.
As you can see, it makes for some cool looking cosplay and photoshoots!
Shuka has also designed other cyberpunk-themed masks, including one that can be worn in three different ways: as a full face cover, a simple chin strap, or as a standard mask.
If you want to see more awesome cyberpunk creations, be sure to follow Shuka on Twitter, as well as their Booth online shop.
