Ho. Ly. Crap!

That is AMAZING! How long did it take you to build it? The details are so painstakingly believable.

THANKS GUYS!!!!

Oh gosh, I did it over a period of about a week, but the cereal alone took 5+ tedious hours. I have a rotary cutter and a cutting mat, so that helped speed up the cutting process (although fleece doesn't always like to be cut with a rotary, so some scissoring was involved. Not a euphemism....). But each piece of cereal was individually glued on (hot glue). Kinda like how as kids we'd make crafts with little squares of tissue & the end of a pencil & white glue to make the tissue stand up like a flower, except in this case it was micro fleece, hot glue, and my finger. :smile: There are over 1,000 pieces of cereal glued to his "head" .... glad to be done!

oh man, you guys, you have no idea how worried I was that it wouldn't look like cereal when I was done. Thank you so much!

You can see it up close on flickr, if you right click & choose "view original size" (it gets *really* close--like, glue strings & fuzz-balls & all!)

I gotta say, I really like micro fleece. For perspective, the eyes are larger than ping-pong balls. The bowl itself is 10" in diameter & 6" tall, with the cereal piled on top of that.

Absolutely incredible. That is one seriously cool puppet. A lot of work but the results are outstanding.
