    As an owner of a resin head with resin eyes I agree with most of what is said. The head does heat up a fair bit and I tend to open the mouth to get some airflow when I can. The advantage of the resin base means that vision isn't that bad with the resin eyes however, because the tear ducts are very close to my eyes so I actually have some of the best vision I've seen with fursuit heads. No issue with a large muzzle blocking half my sight either. That said, this style works really well for realistic suits more then other designs.

    Another con for expanding foam heads is it's really hard to get glue to stay. I'm working on a suit right now with a DVC headbase, and I found that the surface is really smooth, which makes dry hot glue slide off. You have to really scuff up the surface to get anything to stick.

    I'm actually a young fur, claustrophobic, and overheat easily, so if you're like me and have a depressing fear of fursuit heads, read on! I love the furry fandom and want to cosplay, but due to my weird body, I can't have a head. So I came up with a new idea! A new head! Just use makeup, a wig, and ears! First, paint your face and neck the colors and pattern of your character. Then, buy or make their ears, and buy a wig and a hairnet for the back of your head. Glue the ears to the wig, (or sew) and then put the hairnet on, THEN the wig! Lastly, either paint your neck or get soneyhing to hide it. I'm gonna use a bandana! Sorry for the random DIY comment :3

    I'm really happy that you mentioned the 3D printing method! Sadly, I don't have the setup yet to use it, but once I can, I'd really love to try it! And, seeing from one teacher of mine that has a 3D printer, I personally think that, as long as you're not dropping it from another story and you have your settings figured out, it can be much stronger than resin. Especially seeing as you'll go less for quality control and more for strength and amount of triangles. At least that's what I've gotten from what I've heard... But either way, I've actually done a head (though, of course, in foam because it's a good starter) and a few other parts, and I was wondering if anyone wanted to see!

    I am an owner of a few suits, one is a resin skull base. His name is shark, and he’s a skull which means he’s not even protected by even a little bit of fur. Shark also inspires little ones to also get a skull, and since they don’t know how to deal with resin I see a lot of pictures of them breaking the teeth of their suit. Which upsets me a little bit. Next is my lavafox, spider. She’s way easier to see out of. (Since sharks eyes are completely black and hard to see out of) anyway, spider is a lot more loved by the normies, since she isn’t as scary as a skeleton. And that’s my two suits, I have one more but they are in the mail right now so I don’t know anything about them. This is a bit random but I feel like I need to say something.

    Just be warned with closed vs open cell foam: closed firmer and open is squishier. However, open cell is excelent for ventilation as air permiates easily but closed cell is literaly the stuff home insulation is made from as it traps gasses in the cells, preventing the primary method of heat transfer through gasses (convection). Note that expanding foam is closed cell. Edit: with 3D printing you can have issues with delamination due to small repetitive impacts or thermal cycling ( cold closet -> hot head -> cold closet -> hot head...). An interesting developement is Ninjaflex filiment (basicly 3D printable rubber); it is very good at absorbing impacts and is very hard to delaminate. The downside is that it is VERY flexible, like colapses under it's own weight flexible; this would make it extremly hard to design a practical head with a purly Ninjaflex base. A multi-nozzle printer or a 'cut and connect' feeder could combine the benifits of ridgid filliments and Ninjaflex but it would still be a pain to design a practical hybrid base.

    i use canvas mesh, but i also got glue foam to it. instead of hot gluing the mesh together i use yarn and overlap it, i basically sew them together. my very first head i made is about 2-3 years old and its been through a lot >> and its still keeping together. i put some foam padding to prevent the canvas from touching. I thought i would clarify that hot gluing the canvas isn't stable and can cause injury but sewing it together makes it stronger. there are also different strengths of mesh. as a maker i thought i should inform you. I make kemono style fursuits i love your videos XD

    I have a 3D printed base from sparkycando. Here in New Zealand she sold a small handful to our small community. It's extremely light and a little brittle. The moving jaw is very effective! There is defiantly a few cons but so far I've really enjoyed working with them.

    Yea, going by this toony would be my choice of suit/head. Thanks for that :3 Though even with the possible issues, I'd still go for a kemono suit. Any of this though would probably never be anytime soon- gotta work on that budgeting thing of course before planning on getting any kind of suit (or high priced expense in general) first.

    The only head I've made was from a craft foam (a little thicker than regular foamies), and it was close enough to my real head to make a moving jaw. I don't know if it would be durable enough for some things, but I used it for a bird, Tokoyami from My Hero Academia, and it works.

    you forgot neck vision! often used for quad suits they're also common in toony or realistic suits which are tall species such as alpacas or giraffes. A mesh that is similar colour to the fur is used, but Beastcub uses collars to disguise the mesh and it looks awesome

    Another technique is to model the head in 3d software then "unwrap" the polygonal mesh to a flat surface that can be cut out of foam. The edges are then glued back together to re-create the 3D form. The result is really light weight (so great for oversized heads) and not nearly as stuffy as a carved foam head while being able to take on any style you can imagine. It's also soft, and not prone to being brittle like resin and 3d printed materials. Resin heads can be patched if needed when there's a crack: drill out the ends of the crack to relieve stress, roughen the surface, bring the edges together (more holes and carpet thread seems to work) and cover with epoxy resin. I'd suggest two other categories: Rarr suits (designed to be, in part at least, to be horrifying) and mask-style heads which are much less built up than regular fursuit heads and tend to be of the use-your-own-eyes style. My Caitian partial uses this technique and is basically a stretchy antron/muppet fleece balaclava with prosthetic style forms for the nose and mouth and latex treated cardboard ears: www.furaffinity.net/view/14870494/ Super easy to transport and wear!

    From my fursuits, Jess v.1 had the animu glossy eyes, and I did take her out on a walk before glueing them in or finishing the heads details (hair, eyelashes,etc) and the fogginess made me too blind, so I actually updated them to a version without the gloss so I can actually see. I am yet to discover and work out a method for those type of eyes without disabling vision. Also on another head type, though not that many makers make it, but there is also the type of head where you use your own eyes instead of fursuit eyes. Id put it on the realistic side, since the heads are made to look as realistic as possible. When wearing one most people would apply makeup and facepaint around their eyes to blend in look wise with the fur on the head. When pulled off it can look amazing, obviously great to see with and often the ventilation is great since it has two big holes in it. Cons would be the fact that like other realist heads it can be creepy, and if someone doesnt do the makeup well it can look kinda bad. Its a head type that requires the person wearing it to have a decent knowledge of makeup!

    Good info in this one! One type of head I don't see much about is neck vision heads. I know Beastcub does really good ones, but I can't think of any other makers off the top of my head. They're really good for creatures like horses or gazelles that have long necks to really sell the illusion, and I feel like they would have pretty good vision and ventilation!
