Another detailed mouth worth showing off before installing in the costume head. This is actually for my first ever "2.0" of a customer suit, a remake of a head I did 4 years ago.

Like Zardis this also has a removable magnetic tongue... though if I knew the tongue would need a pair of pearl-ended stick pin "piercings" to keep it from lulling all over (since there are no front fangs to stabilize it) I would have skipped the magnets ^^;

This tongue is made of blue fleece airbrushed with a touch of purple and lavender, it has a touch of wire in the tip to keep the curl, the tip is weighed with sand so it waggles as you move.

the teeth and lips are all "de-light paper clay" with a foil armature for the big tusks.

The long gold piercings I like last time carved a puzzle mat to shape and painted them gold, I considered clay so they would look smoother but the carved foam is flexible and can handle a beating.
