Completed this on September 8, but I think I finished the head sometime mid August.
He's made purely of Mendel's 3" shag fur. Nose is foam coated in latex and rubber pellets mixed into a cement that was then painted, eyes came from a bottle of Tyde, whiskers from a fiber optic lamp, ear innards are felt, the feet and hands are built on gloves and slippers with foam shaping and bulk added, and the two types of foam I used are block of high-density upholstery foam for sculpting the head and 1" thick sheets of a fairly low-density foam from Wal*Mart.
If you're interested in seeing more of him, I picture-logged the entire construction process of the head and have a gazillion in-progress shots uploaded here: http://s16.photobucket.com/albums/b.....pictures/suit/

Hard to say in actual amount of time spent working on it, because a lot of other things were going on in my life while I was doing it. The whole thing took about four and a half months, but I'd say if I hadn't been distracted and delayed, I coulda done it in two, or even one and a halfish? Unless you meant only the head- That I'd say I spent about a month and a half on in real time, and ideally would've done in less than about three weeks.
