Akira 101 Scalp
Akira 101 Scalp is a two piece scalp for you to build your own wig on top of your Akira 101 Blank Head, enabling you to have an easy replacement hair. Being two different parts instead of one, it provides more flexibility when designing the hair of your stop motion puppet, however you can still use them together as a single piece if you prefer.
Key Features
- Fringe / Bangs piece
- Scalp piece
- Hidden magnets which match the position of the ones on Akira 101 Blank Head, both male and female.
- Small mushroom-shaped pegs so that clay attaches conveniently but that it can also be removed easily with small clippers.
- The same small mushroom-shaped pegs can be used with clay or with wire to create a hair armature.
- Lightweight but strong plastic construction using Nylon PA2200
- Paint it and/or Clay it (for oven-baked clays please note a 90°C max temperature). Paint all the parts or shape them with oven baked clay like Super Sculpey and Super Sculpey firm or air-dry clay such as apoxie sculpt or miliput.
Box Includes
- Fringe / Bangs piece
- Scalp piece
JakeS –
Well thought out, the design of this piece makes it very easy to work with, and the nubs are great for holding whatever you use for hair.
It’s designed to form a grip on the clay that you use for the hair, but you can also use it wrap up pretty much anything, I was even able to wrap strands of hair around them to create very nice looking realistic hair.
