Mossy Oak
Okay - so it's not really camouflage - but it is real moss. I couldn't decide if he should have clothes or not and I was sticking the moss on the base when it dawned on me that the moss could be the clothes too. At first I just gave him his, uh, loincloth but then I thought I'd try for some chest hair. Don't ask why. It looked silly and turned into his chest strap instead. Kind of a Tarzan look.
His hair is unwashed wool fleece. I didn't realize it was unwashed until I was half way through sewing it on. My hands were nicely moisturized. I think I might add another lock or two in the front. I find it really helps to take photos to critique your own work.
I'm really loving this guy!
He is just the custest little guy I have seen, he needs to be a pattern for sure..I can't wait to see whats next!!

This was a great choice for 'clothing'. I love it!
Posted by: Gerry at January 29, 2007 5:14 AMSo you should love him. He is wonderful. The moss effect is a great idea. Makes him look like a character from a fairytale. I love that little goaty beard it is such a sweet touch. Judi bravo!!
Posted by: shashi at January 29, 2007 7:25 AMI love him too. Nothing like grese fleece to spice up the day. if you have cats be careful they don't love him too.
Posted by: Maryellen at January 29, 2007 7:49 AMHe gets cooler every time I see him. I think the moss is perfect. Now I look forward to seeing the whole thing put together...
I agree about the photo critique -- my work has improved since I started taking pictures... though, the camera can be merciless at times, LOL!
