Wondering what it'll look like when it's opened.

Making a gnome figure

This is my first attempt at a gnome head.  Eventually I'll have a family of gnomes who can live in future Stump Houses.
I sculpted a head in greenish scrap clay, then made a mold with purple silicone putty, and then made a reproduction with flesh-colored polymer clay.

(He'll get ears soon.)
