One body made from left-over parts and a head from the reject bin. I had to give him a nose job. The hideous "comb-over" is just scraps of roving needlefelted to the head. I find it helps when I needlefelt the knitted wig on.

Is it just me, or does anyone else think he resembles the "Muscles from Brussels"?

So, now he has a name - Jean Claude
