Description
This head base was made to build a hand puppet head for a Parakeet. This version is not designed to be a wearable mask. It has been optimized to create a hand puppet head. The lower jaw is movable. The base plate for the movable eyes and eyelids is included (you do not have to use it if you don't want to add animatronics).
The model is scaled for hand puppet size (16cm wide on the outside) - Rescale the model if you need to.
It looks like this assembled (the version in the video was made with the first version of this model - the uploaded files have a much higher resolution):
