If you don't mind me asking what'd he use for the Yellow mouth?

It will shock you. The hardest part of the build for most people has the easiest solution!!!

I bought a few from local discount store in 12 and 14". Just cut ad paint and your done! Perfect mouth for any deadmau5 head with perfect vision and ventilation

I think I love you now that you have posted this

Could I commission someone with mau5 head building experience to make one for me for Halloween? I'd like a simple single color style and illuminated eyes. Tell me what you can do and when and we can discuss price.

due to the expertise of all members at the RPF especially those involved in this thread, I had an amazing time building my deadmau5 head and now it is time for me to part ways with my deadmau5 head to pursue other adventures such as a Daft Punk helmet and Batman. If anyone has any questions at all please feel free to contact me and I will be seeking the advice of many of you when I begin my builds!

Here's my effort. Started life as a 13" hamster exercise ball due to not being able to find the clear domes in the UK or that didn't cost a fortune to ship. Still got some finishing off to do though...

I would have never thought of a hamster ball!

wired up the LED for the eyes. I'm using 8 5mm 20,000mcd flat top LEDs and a 7.2v power source.

and here it is powered up with the eye over them. Just testing them for a couple hours for heat and what not.

Yup! that is what I used as well! They work great just have to be careful when dremeling the ball because it is not as sturdy with all the open slats but is a great buy for the cheap cost!

these look nice and bright! I wish I had the skills doing this but I just gave up for mine and gave in to buy the sound-activated LED lights for my eyes! haha

Lets talk about eyes.

When you guys are painting yours, do you paint the inside of the domes or the outside.

The lady ordered some pink LED's, but they are definitely not the most pink, they are more pink/white. Im thinking about spraying some new ones pink hoping it will give her the effect she is going for.

Also, a tip for people having issues finding globes for the eyes.
Michaels and Jo Ann Fabrics have fillable acrylic Christmas ornaments at 4inch and 4.5 inch diameter. works perfect!
