Garindan long snoot: Does anyone have reference pictures of right side or know if the snout stitching is on both sides?

I found a cheap pair of welding goggles, I’m not sure if they are Suffolk Iron Foundry or not as they were unboxed and are not 100% screen accurate but are close.

I have the inkling to make a Garindan mask or bust to display them, but I’ve not found any reference pics of the right hand side of the snout only from this side

I’ve seen a few fan made or replicas, and there are examples both with and without the cross X stitch along both sides of the snout

I’ve been trying to think how they would have made the original costume, or what would have been easiest for them, but I think either way would have been equally do able.

Nice goggles, I missed out on quite a few recently. My plan is to use aluminium armature wire and then a combo of paper mache and fabric soaked in glue. For the hood I’ll use felt or fleece. I think it will be relatively simple.

That's how I covered my snout - old t shirts coated in PVA wood glue. However I got a mate to 3D design and print the snout.

Did you go with stitching on both sides or just the left?

Becuase I went 501st approval, I went both sides as the CRL specifically says 'sides' (plural)
