This is the final version of Snuggles. Snuggles 1.0 ( [link] ) was made from latex and expanding foam and was really more of a dummy cast in order to have a play around with the paint job and see how well the latex would pick up the detail.

This one was a fiberglass cast and worked SO much better. However, the helmet didn't fit my head due to some design flaws and my teacher was somewhat displeased, sending me into a depressed spiral of self-doubt.

However, I still like Snuggles 2.0 and decided to use him to showcase my first animatronic rig. Vid of the rig working is here - [link]

The rig without the helmet is visible here - [link]

Inspiration for the sculpt was the Kurgan from Highlander, a dash of H.R. Giger and my own twisted brain.

Aint he just the snuggliest lil skull?

I wanna huggle Snuggles. :) He's adorable! (he looks a little angry, though)

He's angry 'cos I havent fixed up his motion sensor yet. He wants to scare people and he just can't. If he had feet he would be stomping them in a tantrum :p

Those little creatures are so temperamental! I'm sure he has nothing to worry about though - the little guy will be out terrifying people in no time.
