Making a Duct Tape Dummy Head for Upcoming Fursuit build

  • Опубликовано: 1 июл 2019
  • Decided to make one after I could not find a mannequin head for my size of head (24 inch circumference) at a reasonable price. Overall the dummy head turned out excellent, and stuffing it tight did not deform it. Throughout the process I checked the circumferences of the head and neck, and made sure that they didn't deviate more than 1/4" larger nor any smaller.
    CAUTION: If you are to replicate this process, please take excellent care not to suffocate. If you have any questions about the process please ask BEFORE you start.

      That all depends on your maker (or if you make it yourself, if you feel you need a base to keep dimensions sane). If you have a normal sized skull, you could easily find a mannequin head, mine has a 24inch circumference, so a lot of heads are out of the question, thus the need to make one.

    I needed to make a head for the same reason (we done it the exact same way except I used a plastic bag on my head to put the tape on) but I never looked up a tutorial and I did not know what to use on the inside to harden it, so I looked up how to make a mannequin head in hopes of finding what to use on the inside, and then found this. Does the head still hold its shape today?

    • @meercreate
      @meercreate  3 года назад +1

      It held its shape but then it fell apart at the neck and the whole thing came undone. I recommend filling the interior cavity with spray foam instead of with paper

    Why not just buy a head mannequin? Head shapes aren't different enough to be worth making a DTD. Even with your size of head you can ask the maker for some leeway for a comfortable fit. Besides, you can't even pin anything to duct tape and it's too weak to stand by itself.

    • @meercreate
      @meercreate  4 года назад +3

      It is extremely difficult to find one in my size, or else I would have bought one. "Asking the maker" in my case is asking myself. And yes, the duct tape is kinda flimsy. For most people, you don't need to do this.
