Allright, Since my suit's identity has been let out... HERE WE GO ON UPDATES! If I make any significant progress on the suit, I will post an update either at the end of the day or in a couple days, dependant on how happy I am with it :P.
In this update, you can tell the upper head is mostly done. I have the ears attached, the upper cheek foam attached and looped, the hair designed and attached, but still no eyes.
The reasoning for no eyes at the moment is, they are recessed and I need to color the foam first where it would be able to be seen behind the eyelids, then I will attach the eyes, then fur the head.
The ears also are showing my usual vent setup. The insides of the ears are wide open, and are open right at my ears. This will give me two things... one, I CAN DAMN HEAR! another, venting on my head a tad.
One big problem with this head design over my last, is this one is so damn tight, its like wearing a baseball cap that is one or two sizes too small, so it squeezes your head. I did this on purpose, do to my talkjaw setup. This will make the rear and sides of my head the actual gripping point vs my nose like my last suit, giving my face more open area to breathe.
The top, next to the liberty spikes, is also open mesh allowing air to flow around and escape through the thin fur. Not the best, but better than being trapped in a whole head of foam!
Coke can unintentionally there, however it gives a neat scale ref!
So, what does the populous think of my second fursuit head? :3.

Crux's have short noses :P Many people improperly draw them with longer snouts. Traditionally, Cruxes have shorter snouts than a canine, but longer than a feline. I have short pile fur for the suit as well, and in areas where the fur is still too long, going to try and use fleece
Well, I been with cruxes before their popularity explosion in 2007, and at the time a personal friend of Malluch (their creator). I had a convo with her about cruxes, what they are, basically, before the V2 crux release in my sim. Regarding cruxes, they are designed as a genderless species, however have no real "Backstory" or "idea" behind them, just a cool design. They were genderless by design, however Malluch lets anyone do whatever they please with the species.
Cruxes with a gender arent wrong, per say, since its their character, However originally the cruxes were a genderless species. I'd rather use the crux species as per design. A Crux was actually my fursona before chimera, and before I identified with Asexuals (Still had no drive, just had no idea about the asexual orientation yet). I always used cruxes as genderless, from when I used to be an Industry Crux, and the vendor in SL said "Genderless" I just went along with it. Later on I met malluch and we became friends.
After the V2 crux release Malluch started getting hounded by people for replacement parts, since the crux was released as mod, however due to a lovely SL glitch, some parts werent mod (even though they were modifiable in inventory, they became no-permissions on rez), that and various other problems caused Malluch to change accounts a lot, and over the time of running around I lost touch with her.
But point being, as Originally, the cruxes were designed as a genderless species. This is basically like how Sergals are supposed to have the intelligence of a 14 year old, by design, however people do what they will and make what they want with the species. I can't stop people from doing what they want, and nor do I want to. However, I use my knowlage of the crux species and match it as close to the original design as I can.

Still working hard on it :V Check your phone and you can see more updated pictures x3 and the tooth painting I am doing :D (15 min PER tooth to paint... and a lot of teefs, so its backbreakingly long. doing it a little at a time).
Currently de-duct taping and furring the head at the same time :V
