Semyon Varlamov, the goaltender of the national ice hockey team and Colorado Avalanche, is expected to flaunt his brand new mask, designed especially for the 2014 Sochi Olympics.
Made by Pro Airbrush Artist and Custom Mask Painter David Gunnarsson, the mask features the Russian double headed eagle from the chest of the Russian hockey jersey, spreading out the wings.
“When you come closer a new world of detail work opens up. On the top of #Varlamov´s mask you will find the Russian flag among all the details, and so much more of the trademark effects of #DAVEART,” says the artist in a post on his website.
Gunnarsson says it’s an honour for him to paint masks for Semyon Varlamov.
