For the Meerkat Character in the Lion King Jr. Play

This Timon mask pattern creates all the shapes for you.
And it’s just as much fun to make as he is to wear. 🙂
It goes together fast, and only needs one layer of paper mache. Once it’s done, those big black eye spots will make him stand out in your production of the Lion King Jr. play.

Print the Timon mask pattern and stick it on cereal box cardboard.

Cut out the pattern pieces and tape them together, following the instructions included with the pattern PDF.

Add paper mache, with newspaper or brown paper from amazon boxes.

Bring Tmon to life with acrylic paint.
Finished size:
About 8 inches (20.32 cm) high, 8.5 inches (21.59 cm) wide and 12 inches (30.48 cm) deep. The cap can be easily altered to fit the actor’s head.

Hello Jonni,
Has the pattern for Timon been changed? We ordered the pattern and we see that it has an ring instead of a cap as I see on the video’s.
Also there are strips for putting the pattern together. We have also made the lioness mask, they don’t have that.
Are you ging to make a new video for the Timon pattern?
Hi Maria. The Timon mask has not been changed, and I”m not sure what you mean by a ring instead of a cap. I’ve just sent you an email requesting a photo of your pattern, showing the piece with he ring and strips? That would really help.
So amazing! Did you have tutorial for making the pattern?
I don’t have tutorials for making the 3D patterns, but there are full instructions included in the pattern for putting it together.
Love it!
Thanks! 🙂
Fantastic! you do great work I love your Masks and Sculptures………………..Randy
