The base was a free 3D wearable wolf skull model from Thingiverse. The bottom jaw didn't fit right, so I had to remove the back part, and over the winter I got around to crafting a fix for that. The new jaw section is EVA foam, painted with white acrylic, sealed with some poly stuff I found under my kitchen bench from house work.
I tried really hard to hide the seams where it connects by the molars, hopefully it's convincing at a glance? The character is my fursona, who is a necromancer-druid, so that's why there's plants everywhere.
The main image was actually a test piece, but I was so happy with the shape and size that I just used it as the final piece. The image was taken blindly when I was trying to see if it was fitting correctly, forgive my fingies being so visible.
Honestly after a while you just take the risks and then figure out how to correct it when it goes bad.
