The tour pics are pretty neat, but that rubies head piece is less
then par" my .02 cents. I mean yea its a wookie I guess. Anyhew, I
ordered my supplies for the mask yesterday, as I was telling Matt, I
did the 10 dollar lifecast of my face, one roll of duct tape, two
boxes of plaster of paris, and some tinfoil. It worked out great!
Today i vacuum formed it, and threw in resin in the vacuum formed
shell and now have my head piece to sculpt the outer chewbacca mask
with. I plan on casting my forehead area again, join that to the
full face resin piece so as to have it sculpted easier. Tonight or
tomorrow ill vacuum form the inner skull. My supplies of clay,
teeth, and dragon skin will be here by friday. Ill upload some pics
tomorrow or so. Kevin :)
