I have a quick question for anybody tracking this thread:
I peeled the latex mask off of the form/sculpt last night and did a quick test-fit to make sure it looked like it would fit. (Of course, keep in mind that I will be cutting this into two separate prosthetic pieces, just like they did for the movie. It won't be a full mask in the end.)
Well, my next step with that thing is going to be to cut out the eye holes and nose holes. (And I'll probably poke holes through the 16 or so "pores" that I sculpted into his muzzle.)
I noticed last night that, while my nose does extend out to the muzzle, if I breathe through my nose while wearing the mask, that front flat muzzle area (which is so defining of the movie Grinch's face) "flaps" / sucks inward and outward. I certainly don't want it doing that while I'm wearing it.
Would inserting / gluing (with latex?) foam into that muzzle be the only good solution for that? (I'd really hate to use more foam against my face.)
I'm thinking certainly costumers encounter this issue every once in a while. Not sure what's standard practice.
Thank you!
