The captain

The Character i am doing out of comedy dell'arte is the captaino- who is a boastful bully who is full of bravado. However this is all a act as he is really a coward.

Costume and mask 

The captinos mask was very fierce looking with raised angular eye brows that looked like they were glaring at you. But also it has that long pointy nose so he can appear to be more manly than he really is and his bristly moustache which are said to look like iron spikes. Originally the masks were skin colored however i have seen different coloured ones like red and brown and even black. So i think i am going to pick a colour like red as it is going to make someone look powerful and dangerous even though they aren't necessarily.
