Hmmm, not bad ideas, Chris. I played with it a little more and while it
isn't very good as the masked man now, it does make a nice mustached
figure:

                        ,)
                  __--__|\
                    ~ ` /|
        ______,._,.' \ `.
              ``._.''||  \
                     |\   `.
                    / /\    `.
                   /, \ \,' '
                   |\  `.`.
                   | \   \ `,
         ejm/VK   -`-'    -'
