I know they've been cracking down on the sales of certain characters (whitey) but wouldnt mask making be considered an art form and therefore somthing that cant be censored? Once again not trying to make an argument, just something I was thinking about.
When an artist is creating a piece be it a mask/bust or whatever, and it's based on a character from films/comics etc etc that is trademarked, it's a likeness rights issue. Your not creating an original character, it's copying someone's work that was already created is the way it's looked at. Hope that helps.
