| Last year I made cowboys using stuffed clothes, beauticians foam head model, and a masquerade mask painted flesh tones. They were great except for the freakishly small heads which kind of creeped me and some of the kids out.
I was wondering if I could use some Great Stuff to fill out a latex mask. Or do you think the expansion would be to much and it would distort it out of shape?

| check out the scientist someone made for their power lab. Its under decoration-PL scientist.
Last year I used one of my full body puppets to make a cowboy- just added jeans and shirt stuffed with newspaper and a hat. Because of the child like face- no one was scared. My grandson wants to do it again so he is in charge of our friendly scientist.
Good Luck

| Thanks for the suggestions, I did see the other scientist posted. But I believe that it used a similar method to what I used last year, and while great, I'd like to have a bigger head.

| | The great stuff might eat the latex, not sure. Could you put the wig head behind the mask and fill in any spots with fiberfill (you could pin it to the wig base). |

| | PLEASE be careful w/ great stuff... it will not clean off your hands or clothes. Wear throw away gloves. I do alot of foam building and I will not use that stuff. I have added new picture to hometown page of the lab desk that I'm building.
