The good beginning it is some paper mache?

It's a paper mâché clay recipe I got off YouTube. It works well but I changed it to my liking

Well, the lower jaw portion is creating too much tension on my jaw to open it from that angle, I'm going to have to scrap the face and do something different like PVC formed in the shape so it's sturdier. Maybe going the foam floor mat and hot glue route...
