Yay! This type of plastic is super easy to heat up and bend (curling the spine or neck, for example) BUT it will return to its original shape if you heat it up again. :)

I've heated the arms to help with poses, but hadn't done the spine yet! You're full of great tips!

I forgot to say!!! You did a BEAUTIFUL job! Especially with the facial features. The ears look so real, I didn't try for a nose or eyelids on mine XD

Thank you! I didn't do ears, eyes or nose on my first one. Then the next round I used toilette paper and super glue for the facial features, but now I'm using model magic.

Id love to see yours!

I'm making mine for my sister as well, who is visiting in April. I'm taking it slow and working on it bit by bit, but I'll definitely show it when it's done!

Thanks again for the inspiration, I know she'll love it. And it's so cool you're able to make a business out of it now! :D
