New wolf costume mask.

Solion · Post by **Solion** » Thu Aug 24, 2006 3:22 pm

I know I get the rep that I only do cat costumes/mask making

But I am in the process of my first production wolf costume at my studio
(yeah took me long enough)

He will be up for bid at dragon con. If he doesn't sell there Ill put him up for regular sale. I would have done one sooner. But nobody ever asked me to make one for them. And I really wanted to make one.

Now he is not done, and the eyes, articulated lower jaw and ears need to go on (bionic hearing system) but I thought I would get opinions from true wolf lovers out there.

higher quality pictures soon. Here he is .. my first wolf

Solion! Tell everyone at Dragon*Con I said Hi! I look forward to seeing you there in 2007 - since I won't be able to be there this year.

Your masks are awesome - I might commission a dragon someday when I have all the goods to do it with.

Wow; that's pretty darn excellent! Among the best I've seen.

well new pictures and video , the video is large and high quality and yes.. you get to hear me howl. It will make you laugh but you get to see the jaw move
and the idea of how these things come together.

anyways if anyone has any contacts in the american indian community I would love to hear a translation of "shadow of the moon" in american indian dielect. That would be his name.

enjoy

Takes about a week to make a mask

But let me also offer the 'Add ons" you can get

Bionic hearing, these are actual amplifiers with microphones in each ear to hone in on a sound, X20 amplification through a pair of sony earbuds,.

wolf hearing package. this is the same amplification but with a ADA progammable unit that takes ultrasonic frequencys and moves them down into the human hearing range. so yes, you can actually hear like a wolf.

night vision, you can have first or secon gen starlight tubes built into the eyes
to see at night.

Voice pack. amplifier with USB audio unit to make actual wolf noises

That's awesome!! I wish I could have one like that

It would take forever for me to save up to have one made

Augh! I know what you mean Joker. If I get another big commission, I would really like to put enough money aside to commission a 'rundi mask from him. He's the best suitmaker out there IMHO.

Well back from the convention, And the wolf sold at auction. Sorry to anyone who sent me email wanting to buy that mask. Dont worry give me some time and I will build another one. but it will be a while unless you want me to do a movie or somthing

:O WHOA.

I've never heard of you before now. But I absolutely love you.

Tooooo cool. ^_^ The add-ons sound amazing.

*daydreams* One day, one day.

Thanks for sharing! I'm definitely going to check out your site.

Edit: Wanted to say that I liked the video. I had no idea you could make such cool masks that actually have moveable parts.

And the snapping at the camera made me actually laugh out loud!!
