How to Make a Dog Skull Mask with Moving Jaw - Free Foam Templates - Werewolf Fursuit Head Tutorial

How to Make a Dog Skull Cosplay Mask perfect for a Skullie, Fursuit, Druid armor, Werewolf costume or Masquerade. In this video I go over all of the steps it takes to fabricate your own eva foam dog skull mask with a moving jaw!!! There are also free pdf patterns available over on my website that you can download and build right along with me. This is the kind of project you can make right before Halloween for a party or masquerade. But you can also take your time and really distress the foam and foam clay to look like bone or flesh! I also show how I added details using my line of Foam Clay and hand painted it with acrylics.

But i was so dissapointed with fact that there is no more good tutorials so i decided to do it.

Just want to say thank you for pdf and your amazing work

I know a lot of people use a crumbled up ball of aluminum for bone/skin texturing, but I really like using a pumice stone ;)

[@SKSProps]

That works fine in oil or bake clay but wont hold the details on foam clay because it expands some as it dries then shrinks as the moisture wicks out. So any details you add have to be more dramatic when applied

[@CthulhuCoffee]

@@SKSProps well yeah with anything expanding. But then you always get the neat after effects of all the wrinkling to make some neat skin effects with the foam after it has contracted :)
