Description
Finally finished!!A snow leopard mask with a moving jaw that works very well and follow-you eyes.
I will be entering it in the end-of-the-semester art competition.
Made out of mainly duct tape, paper, and a cheap mardi gras mask from Michaels, along with other odds and ends, costing me at least $15 to make.
I had wanted to experiment to see how a feline profile fit on a human head without making the head look ginormous, and this mask turned out to be just the perfect size.
Critiques Requested!!

great mask very nice i love it
but since it only cost $15 to make would it cost that much to commission one?

thank you
it cost roughly 15 dollars to make, but commissions would cost a bit more because of the time and energy that it takes to make it, about $25 or $30

Thatβs amazing! How do you get the jaw to move?

The jaw is hinged, and the lower part of the mask rests on my chin and moves as my chin moves.

Ah, thank you! Iβm currently working on getting a jaw to be movable, and itβs good to know how others accomplish this.

welcome and if it helps, I've found that sturdy cheap plastic spoons, forks & knives make good hinges if you're careful not to break them when drilling an hole in them.
