A taxidermy form of a bear head was purchased and used to pull the Veraform to shape. Ears and brows were then made of Veraform and adhered. Eyes were made from Warbla and teeth from EVA foam. Additional shaping was done to the head using a hair dryer. It was then covered with cheese cloth and Gesso to prime it for painting. Once painted, it was adhered to the hard hats and  Ghillie suit material was added to the head to fill and smooth the transition. Addtionally, faux fur was added for dimension. 

Ghillie suits were used for the body/fur of the bug bears. They were tinted using watered down Acrylic paint.
