I might be doing a bird character in the future. I've never worked on one before so I'm thinking of some material choices I might need down the line. I just bought a foam bird base, and I'd like to turn it into a semi-toony gryphon....like creature. I'm just wondering what material would look good for going over the beak? It will be black. I was considering fleece, minky or maybe like a vinyl? I'm just not sure which would look best (or if something else would look better) for something that's not super realistic looking. I do like that balance of toony/realistic...so not sure which would be the best choice for that style visually.
Thoughts?
