Tank weasel (Wolverine) fursuit head base, V1

A wolverine (the animal, also known as quickhatch or carcajou) fursuit head base!*

Please don't try to replicate the exact fur pattern. Hubble is my character, and the picture is only shown for demonstration purposes. However, the base and the nose are released under CC-BY-SA 4.0, so have fun!

Unlike most fursuit heads, this is a mask-style head base. It is also too small for most hooman heads. This is on purpose so that it maintains proper proportions between my head, my body, and the part my eyes are looking out from, but you can probably scale this up and down for your needs.

Because this is a mask-styled base, you would need some webbing or other strap to secure this on your head. I also recommend you find some sort of foam or silicone layer to cushion between the print and your forehead.

One of the goals for this fursuit head base was to have a removable layer of fur. I've put in some slots that you can put plastic snaps in…

… But I found that this method was a bit… janky, so I sewed in some loops of webbing with snaps so it could secure itself to the various "struts" of the base.

The nose is designed to snap fit with the head base. Some fabric is sewn around the nose on the fur so that the nose can act as an “anchor point”, while the other loops pull on the faux fur with tension.

The nose also has holes for ventilation. I added some mesh to hide the hooman behind.

I also used mesh for the eyes. This uses both the centre holes and the actual eyes to see out. I used zip ties to secure the mesh onto the base, but it's really a temporary solution. Hopefully, I can make some sort of blank for it in the future.

I've printed mine in PETG. If you want this to be a bit more durable, try increasing the perimeter count.

Please, feel free give me some feedback, and let me know whether or not you would like to see this in a dealers den near you.
