More from Muddle_Designs
Poor quality, will be moved to scraps/deleted on next WIP beak photo.
Working on a project for FC. Redesinging Muddle for Muddle Designs.
Long poofy tail, no species, just a lot of colors and poof.
Main color is blue.
Hooves, digi-legs.
Normal paws.
Goat ears.
Beak.
He's... in pieces. I have the paws, but they have no fur. The tail needs to be combed out into fur, the hat that'll be his head needs the other ear and the fur. And then there's the pants... which are slowly getting yarned up to be combed out for fur.
But here's the beak!
I just sculpted it out of clay. I am waiting until it's mostly dry so I can smooth out the cracks that formed as it dried. Then I'll cover it in latex according to this tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=illlheX-uO4
Sorry for the poor-quality pictures, it's just a work in progress. Anyone know where to get liquid latex this time of year? Party City doesn't have it. I tried to get it from Ben Nye, but a $3.50 bottle would take two or more weeks to ship and would cost $20 to ship. I'm not paying almost seven times the price of the object to ship it. I didn't look any higher. Shipping shocked me out of the site.
Southern California, anyone have a bottle they are looking to sell/get rid of or know a place that sells it year around? Also, how's the beak look? It's on a Styrofoam head that has a natural tilt to it.

Woah! I forgot about this image. This is a mold for the beak. This one is made out of just normal clay. I sculpted it out of clay, let it dry, then covered it in tooldip and let it harden. Then after a few layers I peeled it off. I don't suggest tooldip, though, as it fell apart, and it wasn't even connected with face glue. It's not stable if it's not attached to anything. Liquid Latex like the kind used for makeup (not molding) is better.
For a fursuit head, use foam. Check out the rest of my gallery, I have a WIP shot of my bird head I'm working on. I'm carving it out of four blocks of foam (because I don't have one big block) and then covering it in some type of vinyl or fleece. This makes it light so it can be worn for a long time, and soft so if anyone hits it it won't break and it won't hurt them or me. Also, http://www.livejournal.com/tools/me.....l?user=fursuit is a GREAT place to find tutorials and help on making fursuit or mascot anything. And I do mean ANYTHING.
