Materials:
Random piece of stretchy white cotton fabric, cut up a T shirt maybe (17in x 7 in rectangle)
Acrylic paint: yellow, brown, purple, white
1 foot of ½ inch thick elastic
Sewing needle and thread (ideally), or hot glue, staples, tape
foam scraps
glue gun
1. If you’re not the artsy type you can use this as a painting guide. Here's similar colors to what I used as well. You'll need to print it on multiple sheets of 8.5/11 paper (the first two images, each are 11inches wide) or on 11x17 paper (the 3nd image). It should be 14 in wide in total
3. Paint! Make sure it’s opaque, you don’t want the white showing through.
4. Attach layers of foam scraps in rectangular shapes to fill out the cheeks/jaw area using the glue gun. Our faces are too narrow and angular to show off the blunt teeth filled faces of the zergling. Also you might want to add a piece or two to the middle front area to keep it flat over your lips/chin
5. Securely sew the elastic to the mask, either cut excess elastic and tie it every time you wear it, or cut it to the perfect size to fit around your head. If you can’t sew then I’d suggest lots of staples, then hot glue. But sewing is the most secure method.
6. Extend the brown paint to make sure when you cut off the excess fabric it covers your jaw completely. my template is made for my face, so you might be different. then cut off the excess fabric
Done! Rawr and such!=D
