Hey guys just wanted to share a picture of my deadmau5 mask. I used the hamster ball idea as well and used foam for the ears.

Radioshack has 7-color changing LEDs. I was too busy cramming everything together before Halloween that I didn't get a chance to make a circuit that allowed me to rotate through the colors. Normally once it goes red, you are able to click it again and again, and the colors change in sequence and then back to rainbow. Whatever, I still dig it.

Please let me know!

shaterproof ornaments from walmart. They actually came in black and the perfect size, i just used a hacksaw to cut em in half, hot glued in some floral foam and stuck em to the head

My first two ideas didn't work out so well. Spray paint and styrofoam dont mix lol

the second run i spray painted some taplights which ended up being too large

and to that guy asking earlier in the thread, this is the easiest way I found of wrapping the head with one single stitch using the stretch velvet
