Having finished the base, I've been busy cutting up the fur pieces I'll need to cover it all up. I must've spent a good 10 hours over the last few weekends drawing templates, cutting and sowing all the fur together by hand so that it's a solid job. in all, there must be around 30 pieces of fur that must all be put together.

Next up: Shaving it all to the correct length and glueing the fur down. Also need to get the snoot done!
