My fursuit head got a revamped look.
It went from this:
![Tay's fursuit head]( "Tay's fursuit head")
To this:
![Tay's face]( "Tay's face")
The eyes and nose were switched out for new ones. The nose was originally made of felt (a big no no) built on a plastic canvas "base" and the eyes were foamies with a special plastic mesh that had circular holes. The new nose is a super squishy fleece nose with a foam base. The new eyes are made of the same material, but they have pink LEDs installed underneath the eyelids.
The only things that didn't change were the fur, the insides of the mouth, and the base itself. The base was plastic mesh and foam (it's kind of bulky and it isn't as light as my other foam-based head). The fur is actually brushed out mongolian shag ( http://www.fabricempire.com/mongolian-solid-faux-fur-fabrics.aspx ), which I found was actually shinier than DF shag if you brushed it out. The fur is clumped up, but when you brush it out, it should be fine.
Any tips/ critiques would be appreciated!
