Working Mandibles.

Hey folks,

I'm not sure if this was posted [I didn't find it], but it's a video of the working mandibles system in r1a2s3's Predator Mask. I'm not sure if the same thing would work with a latex mask [probably would] considering his is made from foam [upholstery foam I believe]. He does state that he will make another video showing how he installs it. Interesting video.

Here's think link to the video:

I've seen a couple of his videos before but not that one. I just PM'd him through YouTube and asked if he was a member here.
That's cool of him to make a tut on that.

This is his site with pics of his work:

Thanks for the link. His work is amazing considering it's all upholster foam, foamies, and cardboard.

No problem, he got back with me and told me he's predattack.

He has some serious talent for sure, hes really clever at figuring out how to move some of the parts with just one simple thing. Love his work.

His name is Rashaad and hes actually a really cool guy. Hes building me a moving mask and were designing a red dragon pred. Its going to be a tough as nails pred. Back to basics. The inspiration is actually under his sculpture page on his website.Stay tuned.
Check it out.

Here is a link explaining r1a2s3's method with some 3d renderings. for those who are more visual learners like me, this video helps alot.

It makes me wonder if the same principle would apply with a latex mask.

Im no expert but from what i hear it would work. I would imagine latex being more resistant than the upholstery foam though. Making it harder on your jaws to bite down on the clip and expand the mandibles

how did r1a2s3 make the upper mandibles move?? i mean how will you attach the two upper mandibles in your lips??
