Newbie, dragon puppet head, plastidip?

Hey all...I'm kinda fumbling my way thru a dragon puppet with head made out of upholstery foam...My plan was to sculpt the foam, then spray glue (to close the cells), then plastidip spray and paint (no access to latex). But now I'm concerned the plastidip will crack when I open and close the mouth, or if it bends at all...??? Will it? Is something like Flexseal any more...flexible? Or are they all the same?

TIA!  :)

    Hi Melissa,

    I know plastidip works well on props and armor that need to flex, but I don't think I've seen it used on something that needs to flex as much as a puppet mouth.  It might hold up, but it's a gamble!
