NITRO 2014
This is my first "realistic" style head in contrast to my more anime or toony influenced costumes. The head is completely made from resin plastic instead of my usual upholstery foam. The jaw also moved with the wearer speaks and they see through the tear ducts near the eyes. The nose holes were dremeled out for additional ventilation. The materials listed below were made by others, I only installed them.
DreamVision Creations made the resin blank that I built on, the nose, the plastic teeth, and the silicon tongue.
Yeep Costumes made the acrylic eyes.

PROCESS
For this head I used mainly the DreamVision Creations parts which includes the resin mask blank (I cut and hinged it), plastic nose, jaw set with teeth, and silicon tongue. The acrylic eyes themselves were made by Yeep Costumes and have a "follow" effect based on where the viewer is standing. For the lips and eyelids I used black epoxy and the fur is luxury fashion furs. Simple acrylic paint dry brushing was added for aesthetic purposes.
