Jesse and I teach a Bible class for grades 5-8 for church. One time, we all made silly characters to later be used in a movie. I made a wire skeleton, then wrapped it with different fabrics and fastened it with hot glue...nothin' fancy... His head is made out of Sculpey. For his hands, I wrapped string around the wire stubs and, again, just used hot glue to keep it all in place. (We don't have a lot of sophisticated supplies in our kids class...) Then I just slapped a coat of paint on him. He can be posed very easily, and his head turns. His name is Herman.

Here his is being frustrated that he has to be posed by someone else in order to emote.
