A relatively small bit of progress, but progress nonetheless. The head's finally been lined with both an industrial balaclava and fleece. It's now soft and smooth and comfy on the inside. Also, the nose and muzzle have been hollowed out! Painted mesh will be used to cover the nostrils and add some toony flair, but the nose itself is essentially functioning and allows a bit more ventilation in addition to the mouth and eyes.

And of course, ears! Paper templates, sure, but he finally looks like a full-fledged dog now! Gah, I'm so excited! In due time, these will be replaced with the same eye plastic to get them as thin and sharp as possible. Once those are done, as well as the teeth and tongues (yes, multiple tongues), he will be ready for sale!

Now to nurse the wound in my palm I got from a mechanical pencil stabbing me....I don't accrue normal injuries when crafting. 8|
