Reminds me of some native american styles of headdresses.

Coyotes are quite loveable. ;)

Does she hurt to wear? Like...the styrofoam being heavy/hard? I've got a wolf headdress and if I don't wear him with a padded beanie he can be pretty ouchy (still hurts even with padding after a while just 'cause of the weight and such). This is absolutely gorgeous! Would you ever do a commission for a headdress like this?

She doesn't hurt at all from my small bit of rambling around.

Hot? Yes. Do I have some pressure on my forehead? Yes. But, she's not at all uncomfortable.

I'll be wearing her off and on this coming weekend at a conference as a test run to see how my set-up behaves. I have a feeling I'll have to add a chin-strap just because I'm so bouncy and animated, but for normal people I feel my current set-up would be fine.

I built her on a plain change-out head not the rug forms I've seen people typically use so there's no wood inside the foam. What weight she has comes completely from the critter clay used in the ears and eye sculpts and she weighs maybe 2-3lbs - her backside seems to be a near-perfect counterweight for the weight of her head

Anyway, I'm hoping to offer commissions for these after I get my business permit Thursday and after make certain that my headdress build is of the quality I require. I would never want offer something like this without making sure that it is fun to wear firs! :D

That's a smart idea to use a change out form instead of a rugshell one...probably a lot nicer feeling! haha But very cool =) Thank you for telling me more about it. I sincerely hope to see you offering these for sale some day!

i wish i had the money

I want a lynx one. o.o

Could be done!

Have been meaning to speak to you about the possibility of a wolf headdress. Still will be a while before I can afford a pelt but curious about pricing and so on.

It was awesome seeing you work! Thanks for letting me try her on at Mephit!
