Cosplay, mask making tips?

I am San, from princess mononoke for halloween this year. I have the entire costume except the mask. I would like to know any tips about making her mask, And the ears! or mask experiences you have had that would be of help.(2 pics of the mask: http://www.bbc.co.uk/blast/showcase/submitted/images/gallery/12079329082844329206_1.jpg

I am planning to use a hockey mask as the base(i hate wire) with the nose sanded off.. Hockey mask pic: http://www.garmentdistrict.com/store/party/costume/masks/character/hockey.jpg

After that i was going to use paperclay, however everyone said that was stupid, and i should use crayola model magic(CMM) to make the mask, however; here is my delima that i could really use tips on. Last time i used CMM any separate peices i made and attached to the body, fell off! And im scared that that will happen again! I plan to use some rubber sement between the model magic and mask to make sure, and it will be wrapped around the edges of the mask. But what about the eye peices? SHould i try to do it all with one peice of CMM?

Also, model magic, seems to get hard FAST and i dont know if i will have the mask done by the time it starts to dry! Im affraid i will be shaping the eyes and it will get to hard. Please if you have any sugestions! I would like to do the first part of the mask, and then do the eyes separately, but then the falling off thing! HELP! I really need to this to work!

Next is the ears. The cape of her costume is separate, but i plan on attaching a peice of the fur to the mask and then that fur to the cape, however i need to attach the ears somehow so they are VERY secure and stick up. Suggestions?

Lastly, any suggesting on how to attach the mask to the fur?

THanks again!
