Half Fox Mask, by Perihelion Prints

Ready to print and wear or display

This Japanese-inspired half-face fox mask is a minimalistic representation of a kitsune mask. In Japanese fokelore, the kitsune is a type of yōkai spirit in the form of a fox.

A fascinating creature embodying the crafty, cunning, playful, and sometimes wise attributes of the fox, an older kitsune is also said to be able to take on human form. Some tales warn that a lone woman travelling at night may be such a creature in disguise...

Scaled to fit most adult heads.

For attachment to head, use elastic cord or ribbon. For fitting, place the mask on your face, lining it up with your eyes and the sides of your face.

Measure how much ribbon you'll need to go around your head, then add a bit more and cut two equal halves. Tie a knot at the end of each piece of cord, or glue one to each side of the mask, and use the leftover length to tie both pieces into a knot/bow behind or head. Or you can edit the file to come up with your own solution.

You may also want to put a piece of foam in the middle of the forehead section of the mask, if it doesn't sit squarely on your head. You could also try scaling the mask in your slicer by 5-10% in either direction.

Sculpted in Blender. STL and .blend files included. Dimensions in millimetres.
