Love him!!!

What did you make his head out of? The body looks great, and that fabric is just the right touch.

Thats an awesome use for branches other than fire wood!!!

I'm currently finishing an identical build for this years yard haunt; he's about 12 feet tall and has a massive arm-span. I'm going to have a heck of a time finding an appropriately sized faux-pumpkin to use as a head though...

Hey. Bought the head at a craft store. painted the inside black and designed the face after the scarecrow in Sleepy Hollow.

Neat!!! I don't know if I'd be able to find any foam pumpkins around here (left) to do this with -- but it sure would be fun.

Thanks for sharing! I really love how it turned out.
