Description
Finally! Pictures
Sorry this took so long to get up T~T The mask has been 'done' for quite a while now... Though I just recently added the mesh <.< I plan on taking off the ears and putting cartilage in 'em so that they are sturdier and less.. floppy, lol. This mask features hand painted, LED resin eyes with apoxie sculpt lids, a resin, hand painted jawset, a moving jaw (omg so excited 
) a hidden zipper in the back, and more! This is my first time working with a resin blank >.> so please cut me some slack 
Next time will definitely be better! Note: This photo does not do justice, it looks WAY better in person.LED Resin Eyes (casted and wired) by the fabulous
Jawset from ebay(I would NOT recommend getting them there x~x)
Resin Blank from the awesome Be sure to check out her page!
Dark brown and Camel fur from distinctivefabric.com
Character by me

Another Note: Takoda here participated with my team in our skit for Destination Imagination! We got Second place at regionals, and she was a hit ^^

You're very welcome
Aw man dude I'd loove to ;w; But yeah, that'd be quite a trek for me T~T -But who knows!
DX eep, I'll definetly fix her up!

Whoa, I added the cartilage and wow 
Yup x~x Definitely sending her over there. How much do you think shipping will cost so I can plan ahead?
Oh, and in response to your note; A badge with Takoda with a feather background type thing, a Kuni badge with a rainbow trout (see picture for reference in gallery) and a surprise artwork for Takoda. I think that's it but Im not positive =/

Aw~ awesome!! Glad you got something to work >w< dawws I can't wait to see her
Um, how much do you think she weighs, 3-5 pounds possibly with box, I dunno I'd grab $15-20 to be on the safe side, it might be less then that though..I forgot how much my fur head was to ship x/
Thanks! I wrote that all down on another sticky note and stuck it to the monitor x.x freakin gremlins man..
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I have no idea, but she's not the only thing I'll be shipping =/
How much fur do you think you'll need for the feetpaws? I'm at a point now where I can start working on all of your stuff.
Oh! And I think you said something about a couple of resin eye blanks? I can't remember
What do I owe you again?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ooh.. hmm, if you can find a big decent sized box, got for it or maybe split things into to boxes if its too much? I don't know, most for shipping would maybe be $25..but I'm not to sure.. Like normally I'll bring more then necessary to the post office and it ends up being less then what I expected o.o; dunno how that works lol.
Just normal feet paws? what's your shoe size? Either way I think alittle over half a yard would work..
Yep! I'll throw in some resin blanks for you ^^ And for what you owe me art wise: full body art of Morgan-you can do whatever you want for him or if you need ideas I can help you, portrait/headshot of Jagger with a pumpkin-kind of halloween themed, full body art of Theras-I think you were going to go with an apocolyptic theme. The spooky halloween theme suits all of them, or you could just have fun ^^
And for the feet paws, a pumpkin plushie and then hand paws(i still need to get fur) x.x
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh! I gotta get meh pumpkin back tomorrow, THEN I'll email ya a pic of it
I was going to ship over a pair of shoes for you to use
Oh, and remember how we talked about Theras? I made a mistake and its kind of small but still decent. I said I'd send ya a pic once I finished. If I didn't have homework I'd finish it now >.<
That's what I forgot!! Paws! I'm supposed to schedule a thing at my house with so that I can help her make handpaws and finish Takoda's

okie dokies
Okay, lol I was just asking to see how much fur I'd use but yeah I'd say alittle over half a yard should be fine and then I'll send you the left overs. I don't believe I have any of my own scraps at the momment b/c I haven't been working with fur recently D:
Oh I remeber now! lol, my memory's been so bad recently x.x;
And good news~ I worked on a few sketches today for your badges, Takoda is set I just gotta make it bigger and incorporate the feather
Okies! that sounds fine

Wow it came out great!! I just love the two-toned brown fur color. I recommend craft foam sheets from a craft store for ear "cartilage", it's stiff enough to hold a shape but still very flexible, and very inexpensive.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you so much ^^ Yeah, I was thinking craft foam. I'm hoping I might have some here, but if not I'll need to go to the store
Take note, I will definitely be ordering more blanks from you in the future

AMAZING!!!!!! I love the colors, and her eye's; just wow!!! She is amazing girl, Best first/second fursuit head ever!!!!
I really hope you take her to RMFC!!! I can't wait to see her. XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks ^^ I love how the eyes turned out, but there were a few complications hidden with photoshop >.> I'll have to show you later, lol.
Now that you've said, Its Highly likely I will take her ^^ RMFC ought to be a blast
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
lol really? It doesn't look like you changed ANYTHING in photoshop. XD
Awesome!!! Well I just recently sent her all the information needed to make the head, (because I barely have anytime to do anything that's why I told her so recently) But I assume that she is just starting to make it.

OH MY GOSH, GIRL! HOLY COW! This! THIIIS! This is simply amazing! She's alive! Wonderful work, hon, I'm impressed! She's gorgeous! SQUEEE! When I make my starwars alien wolf humanoid, I'm going to maybe do a resin base. If I can't find one that works out right, I'll do a foam base. I've seen people make realistic masks on a foam base before.

Thanks, lol. If only you could come to RMFC ;~; That would be so awesome.
Really? Sweet
