Make a frame out of wood and the face out of cloth? Or something? Remember, Uboa is larger than person-size, so you don't need to worry about not fitting inside it.

Thanks for he tip, that might work. But I know nothing of wood work, and have limited time. But your right about Uboa being big, I hadnt thought of that.

It definitely needs some sort of a frame to keep it "inflated". Wire or anything that bends too easily is probably not ideal, but wood might be too heavy...

Making a frame out of boning might be a good idea. You can get some types that aren't very heavy, though I suppose you'd want to think about durability too, so it's tough to say...

Also I dont want to suffocate in the outfit. And visibilit is a factor aswell.

If you use some sort of really light material, you shouldn't have a problem breathing underneath it.

I know there's a type of white material used for mascot costumes that you can see through... you could use that for the face? I wouldn't know where to get it, though.

I found some dense foam stuff that I'm planning to sew onto the inside of what will essentially be a giant, Uboa-shaped pillowcase. I'll let you guys know how that works out.
