This year my kids wanted me to do something special for the front yard.
Total work time was about 3 days.

Here is how i did it.

Spray Foam, PVC pipe, and cardbard.

Cardboard form with newspaper.

Foam is shaped with standard kitchen carving knife

Head is refined

A little more sanding

Foil applied

Crayola kids paper clay added

Red cloth hot glued in place

Close up

Kids for scale

Total work time was about 3 days.
The foam was covered with basic wall joint compound and painted with latex house paint.
The hands got a coating of durham's water putty.

Glad you made that, was loving how you did the head/face. I could imagine you could throw a different outfit, get rid of the white face hair and make it into a Halloween prop! Have the kids help. Thanks for the details.
