Wearable Groot Head

[RGREYLING]

SO..second thread. I was asked by a friend to make an entire Groot outfit for some or other launch he was involved in but it all fell apart. I did make the head though and I think it came out ok. It's not entirely finished but its just some painting that needs doing so ill sort it out eventually.
I used EVA type foam, contact adhesive, wood glue, a heatgun, dremel, +/- 10 scalpel blades, and as many screen shots as the internet could provide. Its not exact, but I think it came out ok. It's obviously reductive sculpting, but I thought I would throw that in there.

Ooh, sorry guys, I didn't realise there was a more specific area for this stuff. Thanks for moving it

Hey robotboy, Thanks for the kind words. I was considering making a mould for this at some point, then casting it in polyurethane foam(never used it before so I hope it works the way i think it does). If I do I'll post it here and we can chat again!

I'll probably start after I get back from SDCC, but you will see it here.
