Kryten's Head

Kryten is my favorite character from the comedy sci fi TV program red dwarf. He is so funny and awesome that I felt like I should make his head, in his honour.

Pepakura

I printed off the pepakura file of krytens head. Once it was printed off onto card I cut it out using a craft knife. Then stuck it together with UHU glue.

Paint

If I made this again I would have first put a primary layer of white paint before painting it salmon. However I did not paint it white first, this meant I needed lots of layers of salmon spray paint. Giving lots of thin layers so that the paint didn't run or make the card soggy.

Cut the Back

To make the mask fit easily on and off my face I had to make a cut down the back. This is because the mask is very tight.

Smug Mode

That is krytens head completed! *smug mode activate* I was really pleased with this mask and looks very realistic.
