Cloth Cowl/Mask with Hard Ear Covers

[BoosterGoldstar]

Hey guys. looking for a little advice here. I am making a fabric cowl and I want something similar to the Flash ears to:

1. give the mask a uniform silhouette
2. pull the material away from my ears

I am hoping to 3d print them, but looking for suggestions for shape and references. I have looked at some of the head gear from Overwatch for some inspiration so far.

plastic spheres/balls could be used and detail added to them they come in all sizes some you see outside stores that have gifts/toys in them they can be worked easterly

Unfortunately, that would be far too small and far too protruding for my ears and style preferences.

There are some plastic spheres available at craft stores which you could probably cut down, but should be big enough to cover your ears. A little sanding would make them easily spray-paintable.

Depend on shape you want. But if you want something more ear shaped, you could use plastic Easter eggs. The would be longer than a sphere without the added depth. Half A 5'' sphere would stick out 2.5". An Easter egg shape would be longer from top of ear to bottom without need to protrude as far.
