What do you think of the new masks?
Minako Sawai
Well, the zombie face paint looks pretty good on my necromancer, so that one may get used now and then. Guess I was really hoping for some type of pumpkin head.

I think I like the Zombie Face Paint mask the best out of all masks from all previous events. Fantastic job with that one, Anet.
Oleg
The masks are great. They couldn't be more different from each other. I'm glad I have a pumpkin head though.

I like the Lupin Mask I thought it was great though i can understand it not looking good on some character models. The facepaint is cool too but i don't think there is anything to complain about this year with two very unique and different masks.
Alleji
Facepaint is cool. I wish we had more stuff like this and were able to wear it with a hat.

Too bad you're not going to be able to wear it with a hat. That require a lot of change to their system. People are expecting way too much. Wish for it in Guild Wars 2.

Zombie mask= great
Lupine mask= bleargh

They certainly werent what I was hoping for but, they're both nice. I especially like the zombie mask, which leaves a characters hair alone.

I'm happy with the look of both masks, i'm not really that keen on the lupine mask tbh, but the zombie mask looks great on my monk.

I just picked up the zombie mask and it looks really nice... except that it doesn't cover as much of my head as I thought it would. xD

They're meh.
The zombie was a nice try but it doesn't cover everything which just makes it look like a bad paint job.
GJ on ANet for fullfilling the furry population needs with that Lupin mask.
The only nice thing is the Paragon's joke.

Am I the only here that thought they both looked absolutely hideous? 
Agreeing with Slayer, Kitty ears would have been awesome.

we went over the kittie ears last year....no.
And looks are a matter of opinion. Nothing is going to go well with everything you have. The zombie face paint goes well with some of my characters, but not others. Same with the werewolf. The werewolf goes along stellar with my warrior's primeval armor. Female too. Too bad some unnamed contest organizers can't recognize actual themes over random mask/armor combos, but I digress.

The masks are fine as long as they cover your character's face entirely. This isn't the case for some but what can you do. Least they were new. My personal favorite is the zombie mask.

I got the Zombie Face Paint mask first. I put it on my warrior after hauling her off to Kamadan to await the next Mad King appearance. I looked at my character's face and thought - huh, not much difference, just greenish.
Looked around at other players and OOPS, realized something was wrong. Took the mask off, put the mask back on, no difference. Then I realized headpiece was set to hide in towns. I changed that setting and now have a real zombie face.
Great masks, ANet. Great Halloween once again. If we are to have a Wintersday in July every year, how about a Spring Halloween. Double up on those holidays.

The zombie mask looks good in all my characters. The werewolf is only good in my male warrior, but looks bad on the rest (the neck of the wolf mask is bigger than the neck of my character).

I got the Zombie Face Paint mask first too. It looks great! Especially on Necros, though my Ranger can't complain either. Really amazed by it, and if I ever get a Necro character, it will have this mask as a permanent armor piece 
though I'd love it a whole lot more if it covered all/most of the char's body/head at least. still GREAT though.
Then I got the Lupine Mask - a little disappointment here. Sure, it looks good, especially on the mentioned Ranger (and the Dervish), but...it's just not as dramatic and uber-cool as the zombie face paint.
Thank you ANet for not screwing this event up (last year's mask were a bit...horrible, especially the mummy), and hoping for a great christmas event plus perhaps a Thanksgiving event where NPCs give out Kitty ears?

The zombie is meh because it doesn't fit my face on my warrior, but it's great on my necro. The werewolf one creeps me out. I don't know how it doesn't creep anyone else out. Creep's me out like a big guy with glasses standing outside my window saying I want your loins.
Dr.Jones
i think there both ugly. and are along the lines of the scare crow mask from last year.

Scarecrow mask was awesome, and the two this year are pretty decent. Try them around on different chars, get into the spirit. You're not going to get another pumpkin head LOOK AT ME!!!! mask, they're going towards the more thematic it seems. Now might be the time to accept that and move on.
Neo Nugget
Zombie mask is decent.
werewolf not so much.

Zombie mask was well worth playing through the Mad King's games.
AFK'ed the other mask after seeing what it was.

Well, no accounting for taste ...
I like both of them (maybe the Zombie a tad better)! And definitely better than the Scarecrow mask last year, IMO. And I think all the Halloween masks have been within the genre.

Zombie and Welwolf mask both fail.(Ok, zombie mask was too small imo, you can't see it easily)The mummy mask was REALLLY good....but, time changes....
Secksy
I am supremely satisfied with this years masks. Zombie face paint... <3
pamelf
The Zombie mast is a brilliant design imho. I like that it still maintains your characters individuality.
cosyfiep
at least they are different, though I like my old pumpkin heads....nice to have other options.

lol i just got a mental picture of a zombie with asura glasses, or werewolf with aunt Jamima bandanna.

You know what I wonder?
Why are we getting pop-culture inspired masks rather then GW-themed ones?
Why not give us a Margy-mask or a Koss one?

I do wish the hats/masks were able to hold runes and insignias, i wonder why they dont.
Carinae
Can they still be infused?
Zebideedee
No armour on masks = no fun, for me once I get i just take to mask guy then bin 'em, why we can get fancy gloves, spectacles, masks in game but the event ones are pointless outside of towns = waste of effort imho 
Yol
I liked both the masks. The werewolf one looks a little too big for my elem, but then I have nothing to complain about it as it was given for free in what I think is the best in-game festival in GW. It was a relief that we didn't get that goofy-looking pumpkin from the GW halloween website, as some players suggested we might. I'm just waiting for someone to post a vid on youtube recreating the Thriller video (male paragon and female necros wearing zombie masks)...
MithranArkanere
I hope we get skeleton and wraith masks someday.
Dreikki
Both of them were pretty OK compared to last year's masks.
Calaval
I like em both, the zombie facepaint especially!
Roupe
I kinda like the two this year.
But I wanted an additional nice looking pumpkin mask.
I liked the first year pumpkin mask, but not the second one.
