MY 2011 Bear-WOLF PROJECT IS UNDER WAY. COSTUME DESIGN !!!

Here is the project under-way.

This is the album dedicated to this project. I will upload more as it goes on.
[img]http://s463.photobucket.com/albums/qq354/codyoebel/WereWolfProject/

The idea comes from multiple online resources, and a great deal of my own imagination.

I will get to adding more pictures, BUT FIRST !!! Let me explain the build, and the aim of completion goals.

This wolf is aimed at being realistic as possible, and ABSOLUTELY SCARY as possible BUT within a budget of absolutely no more than 200$ (In parts and materials alone).

- I have Siberian Wolf hair a brown, with black strands faux fur which will liven up the project.
- I have teeth I am about to upload that are baking in my oven made from hobby clay. It's strong and flexable.
- The tounge, and lower jaw are under way. I would like to get started on them today actually. So I will post
more pictures as soon as those come about.
- Using sime simple fish wire, and leather tooling parts I am going to create the bottom jaw aparatus so that when I open my mouth the jaw also opens, AND USING THIN SUEDE LEATHER [IMG]style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I am going to build some LIPS!!! Yes some lips that over hang the mighty evil teeth I am designing, and using a simple pulley type system when I open the bottom jaw it is going to draw UP that thin suede black leather lip on both sides of the mask to provide a "SNARL" for added agression in appearance.
- The project has but ~ 20 hours of time put into it. This is to include driving to hobby shops, searching for parts.
- To include building the facial mask, and on up to the current point of the build. Right now the masks is at focus.

This coming friday I will expedite the shipping on fur. I am also ordering some LONG 7-10" black fur which will go down the center of the head down the back, and into the tail portion of the Bear-Wolf.


-------OK PICTURES ARE BELOW OF CURRENTLY WHAT WE HAVE----------

Well thats some more progress. I have the entire bottom jaw, and teeth cooking in the oven right now. I first made the teeth. Painted them (Paint is burning off.. I dont know what I was thinking.. I got in such a creative mode I painted the teeth before realizing that I needed to bake the gums. I will probably have to repaint them, or I am hoping other than black there is going to be some really nice color phenomina occur with the high cooking heat and the acyrlics LOL LOL.

I will upload more as progress comes. I hope to work on the lower jaw today. I will get pictures posted up on that if I do. I am busy today however.


***************************THIS IS WHAT WERE AIMING FOR********************************
***************************************************************************************
Here is some examples of were wolves I am building mine after.
So far the project is projected to $400+ for my costume alone!
That is not including gas, and time, and artistic work, or other investments, but material alone!
I have a nice set of eye lenses picked out.

Below is an all black wolf were-wolf suite someone else had completed with similar technique I am building mine.
I am actively searching for a costume contest. This is the hardest part so far [img]style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

***01/25/2012 UPDATES****

Ok folks well I was not able to finish this were-wolf project since I lost my job at the time of making it. I have it stored in the garage, and recently obtained employment. Now with this new job and compensation level. I am looking to not only finish this project, but also spend money on researching the use of liquid latex, .. I want to do some "Bare Chest" additives to the over all costume, and add some realism. Also this mask is very evil and sadistic looking. It looks between a wild board, and a wolf mix. It is truly evil looking. I am going to finish this head peice, but because of it's weight. I am considering an entire rebuild. A lighter more sturdy build using fiber glass, and a shorter snout.
The body, and brown wolf color will stay the same. The long black chewbacca hair from holly wood studio quality hair productions will set the costume off even better. I am just updating this email to keep you folks up to speed on the projects current point of progress.
The head peice will be a table ornament . I may buy some scary looking glow in the dark wolf eyes, and seat them into the skull portion to really give some night scare when placed into the corner.

Have a nice human day, or wolfy night smile

Too bad about the teeth, I can understand the excitement, though XD
