Household recyclables make up his armature - plastic bags and paper bags taped to an empty glue jug.
His neck is a sturdy paper tube from a tinfol roll. It's been cut in half and slipped halfway in / halfway out of the glue bottle opening.
He's given a sloppy coat of clay (just because I want to test a new recipe. His body probably won't be visible as an end product) and left to dry.
Next step is to make him some hands and feet.
