Bernier's mask for the alternate uniform

Los Angeles Kings
Jonathan Bernier wanted a mask custom designed to be used with the alternate jersey of the Los Angeles Kings. He told me that he wanted to pay tribute to the legendary LA keeper Rogie Vachon. I presented an idea for Jonathan, and since he liked it, it was just for me to get started...

On one side a layout with Vachon in action, with his unique mask and his signature in the background, all in purple tints with glistening metallic. The rest of the mask is created with a graphic look with elements from the uniform, spiced up with a roll of film spinning with cool 3-D effects, just like on Jonathan's previous masks that I have created for him.
