The Deadpool mask looks as it was made of simple cloth and a few other materials. However, that is just one half of the actual mask. The other half needed the team to digitally alter the mask. According to the behind-the-scenes video, Deadpool’s mask itself had its own dedicated effects team. While filming the movie, the makers had already created a team that was asked to work on the Deadpool mask specifically. One of the makers says that, they as a team were very specific when it came to the mask. He adds that the team came up with a number of custom tools that would allow them to get certain effects done.
