Omg Ur mask is so PRETTY and I'm also trying to give my new mask follow me eyes, a question though is that the mask base, is it one u bought bc I might know where u got it from? You don't have to answer this if it makes u uncomfortable btw(originality and sh like that)
WHAT DID I USE TO CREATE MY MASK??

Hi!!! Tysm ♡♡♡ as an artist, i'm never gatekeeping anything, i know the struggle of trying to create a canine mask/longer muzzle.
About the mask: I'm from Brazil and i got this mask on a local halloween store, i searched for it online since many people asked where it was from and apparently it's from a local small business, i found it on a very trustworthy online shop and i /think/ it can be sent abroad.
It's made from thin white plastic, not sure how it would survive a long flight tho :O now, believe it or not, the base used to look like this.

Now, onwards, do you know the popular cat masks made out of plastic?

The truth is, if you can find /any/ werewolf/dog/wolf/creature mask with this type of plastic base you can felt it and add fur or maybe cut it all up and customise! (Like i did!)
Fr look at how i got this mask and how it looks now!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You gotta dig these halloween stores and ignore the wonky painting and focus on the shape!!! Creativity is your friend and it can be sooo much easier than trying to build a muzzle on 👀👀👀
Good luck and have fun!!!

if i were to open an esty shop for pretty cheap masks would yall be interested? im thinking 20-50 for them. cardboard masks woild be cheaper and normal ones would be a little more interested. i wanna open commissions for them too. (examples under cut, these arent all my masks but theyre the more recent ones.)

no, you don’t need to wear your mask/tail to school.
i wish young nonhumans didn’t feel compelled to be ‘out’ at school, especially when it’s a dangerous environment. i keep seeing posts along the lines of “wore my tail/mask to school! people berated/teased/put their hands on me, but it’s ok”.
no, it’s not.
like.. i understand a mask or a tail can be a very validating thing for some people. and i’m not saying NO ONE should wear them at schools. but i just keep watching this mounting trend of young therians insinuating you need some physical accessory or to do quads to be a ‘real’ nonhuman. and then it leads to things like this and it makes me incredibly sad.
i’d known i was alterhuman since late elementary school, actually. it’s a huge part of my life even now, years after graduation. there wasn’t a reason for it to be brought up, so i never did. it was a closely guarded secret to me, but it didn’t feel like a weight i was carrying. i always thought “no one needs to know i’m an animal if it jeopardizes my safety. so, oh well”.
“but, how will people know that i’m an animal?”
they probably will. they probably already do.
i was the designated ‘animal’ person my entire school career despite not ever handling animals in front of anyone. if there were pets, lost wild animals (baby rabbits, birds, lizards), or sometimes even loose livestock that got onto campus, it was always me who had to go tend to them.
everyone wanted me in their group in environmental science. if a project called for animal illustrations, the same thing would happen. it was certainly weird because i was also a ‘weird kid’ and not especially desired to be around outside of that, lol. but i was never harassed for it. it made me feel very validated, actually.
i had fun during gym running and fiercely destroying the opposing team in field hockey. i taught everyone which plants were okay to forage (and we snacked on them when we had to sit on the lower field for practice). every day i was hyperaware of the limbs i had that weren’t quite there. friends noticed my ears twitch and my nose wiggle at certain stimuli. i felt nice walking on two legs. i felt nice because i felt animal and i didn’t have to prove it to anyone.
really like… just do what makes you happy. i admire the bravery it takes to so earnestly wear your identity on your sleeve like that. that’s very impressive. however, there is NO obligation to do anything like that if you understand that there will be a reaction that poses a threat to you.
i want our kids to be safe, too. you don’t have to feel dysphoria over being discreet. sometimes it’s the safest option. and sometimes, that can be really fun, too.
study everything you can about your ‘type. wikipedia and animalia are good resources. ramble about them to anyone who will listen. jokingly refer to yourself as one in friend spaces. wear discreet clothes that remind you of your ‘type. find a nice private place outside where you can run and explore and look at plants and smell the air and feel like yourself. but by no means do you have to prove yourself. you know you.

Long awaited Hera's mask tutorial (no cat base, low budget)
example of the masks I've made, here:
Tumblr media
Author note: I have a 3 year experience, and I got used to making gear like this, so if you are trying masks for the first time, you might find some difficulties.
also, the whole thing Is REALLY "trust the process"... Anyway here we go!
You need: Cardboard, paper(optional), hot glue gun, felt/something to fur it/any material is okay if it works, foam (optional), basic tools like scizzors
1. Cardboard forming
You need a piece of cardboard that's kinda a little bigger shape than your face, and measure where the eyes should be, so you can see well.
you can make the mask symmetrical by bending it in half, but it's optional
Tumblr media
the first picture down there shows the back of the mask, don't be scared to pull it in and out, I'd say, you need to form the mask shape with your fingers VERY GOOD.
it really depends on what species you wanna make, I'm making a snow leopard rn!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
you can even cut it almost in half, and shape it to your liking
2. Texture
for this part, when you have your BaseOfTheBase ready, you need to make it more 3d, so it doesn't seem flat. small pieces are a key.
u can use various materials to recreate the real look, for example - foam that is easy to work with, and maybe more cardboard pieces layered on eachother. also you can use the pieces to glue the whole thing down together so it's sturdy.
I smooth it out with paper too, so the fleece/felt/fur sticks better to the mask and doesn't leave unnecessary bumps..
Tumblr media
you use the bends like that to create a 3d effect, and expand the mask a little.
Tumblr media
That's what I came up with! I added alot of paper pieces to smooth it down ^^
Tumblr media Tumblr media
3. furring/felting, and the final touches
this part may be kinda tricky, so i reccomend you to watch various of felting tutorials on cat masks, cause this works basically the same!
I didint take any more photos rly, but here's the final product, and only felted one. (the nose is made out of hot glue)
I don't really want to elaborate on how to do the patterns, since you're the one who's customising the mask, but I like to use alcohol-based markers to make them! acrylic paint is also okay ^^
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I hope I helped in some way !
If you have any questions, feel free to ask <3

Hot take: people who make therian gear (masks, ears, tails and whatnot) should take into account therians/otherkin who don’t just have $300 to throw out on gear. That people’s food for the week, necessities. I understand cost for materials or whatever but this is not accessible or budget friendly. Like ever. $50 should suffice.
