I guess you could try carving it out of upholstery foam or other dense foam then try flocking it or covering in antron

What a great idea, I knew Miss Piggy was flocked. It looks like Steve Axtell (http://www.axtell.com/flock.html) has some information on his site, and doing a google search shows he has posted on some other flocking web sites. It seems he uses the electro static method, vs the less expensive air blown/shaker method.

A quick web search shows their are some instructions on the web for building your own electro static machine. Based on this thread http://www.muppetcentral.com/forum/threads/how-does-the-flocking-get-applied-to-miss-piggy.49345/

some people here might have some experience with it.
