I patterned it all from scratch, too!

Sewn both by hand & machine. Has a velcro closure on the front of the neck! Also super light, so your head & neck won’t hurt while wearing it (I’m very proud of that)! I lined the mouth with soft fleece and the inside of the head with satin. It’s really comfortable!

It’s not a mask, so you can’t see out of it if you pull it over your face!! It’s meant to be worn more like a hood.

If you have any questions about how it was made, feel free to ask!

Black fur is really difficult to photograph… it looks better in-person!

      It’s really hard to get something like this not looking like bad taxidermy, and I really enjoy the slightly cartoony (but not in a goofy way) eyes! I can imagine this being amazing to wear for someone playing a barbarian in D&D or LARPing.

        I actually had things like LARP & ren faires pop into my head when I was thinking about what kind of goober besides me would like this!

        Thank you! It’s definitely a difficult balance to have creatures look good without looking too uncanny.
