I Let My Fists Do The Talkin’

This guy made incredibly complicated and labor-intensive deer head mask and costume.The breaking point in the tutorial is where he describes wanting to make sure the head has a long neck and narrow head to make sure it looks properly cervine, so he shifts the mask to have its chin where his nose is, so his human eye is actually lined up with the muzzle. So he puts a camera in the mask’s eye and feeds it to a tiny tv monitor in the nose, but because the distance between his eye and the monitor is too short to focus on normally he gets special contacts made so he can focus on the tv at a short distance… And the ears are on servo motors that he programs into switches in his gloves so he can register different “emotions” in his mask…

This guy is kind of my hero. And also, depresses the shit out of me
