Creating a Demon Costume

Step 3Starting the head

Starting the head
For the head, the first step is to build a sort of helmet shape out of plastic canvas that will fit snugly to your head. This is the part that will make the demon head move smoothly with your own, so be sure you make it sturdy and make sure it fits! You don't want it to flop around! I use yarn to stitch the sheets of plastic canvas together.

As an alternative, you can start with an actual helmet of some sort. Just be warned that building off an actual helmet will mess with your proportions. By building with plastic canvas, you can keep the proportions more under control.

If you are going to want a movable jaw (see next step), make sure you have extra plastic canvas on the sides as shown in the photo.
