Ahead with the Head

Its a while since I posted news of the Loughton Giant. I've been so busy doing other things that he's been a bit neglected, but I'm back onto the case now. I've made the back of his head from cardboard,

stuffed it with paper,

and put on the first layer of papier mache.

The head took ages to dry, but it is now ready for a second layer of papier mache. He will soon be ready for the fun part - decorating him. Meanwhile, I'm building his torso from willow, but more of that anon!
