I was thinking of making a helmet from a favorite book, and I have found a kind of cool latex mask that is ~sort of~ the look I was going for.
I am a little stumped about how to make it more armor like, and less latex like.
Basically I'm looking for a way to stiffen it up to be more like armor. It's a skull mask, so it'd look cooler if it actually resembled bone in the thickness and you know, the whole holding it's shape thing that bone tends to do.
Is this possible to do? I am hesitant to try bondo or anything because it seems like that would dissolve the mask...
Any tips are appreciated
