In a bit of a pickle with this...

First off, hello you guys! It's time I stop snooping around and do something productive...well actually..

I have been productive, but it's not going as well as I planned...I have recently taken up trying to start a canine-ish (the animal is actually a dragon-hedgehog hybrid, but I'll just call it canine because I can) fursuit head with a little help from a few of bongoqueen's tutorials.


I need help with shape if you guys would be so kind as to help...
The initial shape is a husky with a longer snout than normal, and the style I'm going for is semi-realism. Yes I know I'll have to fix the eye sockets later.





I'm a person that likes to work in flat pieces and building up on that instead of blocks.
Anywho, the thing that is seriously bothering me is the fact that the muzzle doesn't have the appearance of being closed. Like it just hangs open, even when I wear it. I triple checked the elastic (thus the hot glue over the stitches), so I know it can't be that...

I don't have any frontal pictures at the moment because I lost my camera, so I hope you guys can get the general idea of what's going on.
