Camo Tribute - Rick DiPietro, New York Islanders, NHL, 2010

The story

David about the design:

It’s always so exciting to create Rick DiPietro’s mask designs with all details and messages, I really love it! It’s also a great honor for me. This design is a continuation of the previous masks that I have created, and here we have worked more with a white bottom tone, with white parts in the camo pattern in Islanders colors.

The motifs on the sides with war theme are mixes of techniques with classic airbrush and old school oil paint tech. The entire design is a discovery in detail work. The whole creates a mask design that is a tribute to Rick’s father who was a helicopter pilot in Vietnam.
