Build 50 - Heads
I finished the hair and used hot glue to stick it onto the head, however before doing this I used spray paint to colour the heads flesh tone. I also ground out a hole from the chins to make a mouth.
Build 49 - Plan the hair
I made the pattern for the hair out of scrap felt to get the right shape before making the final hair.

Build 40 - Core Foam
This is the morris dancer with her finished shoes on, I have started to bulk her out with core foam which is not flexible, and will make a good chest and pelvis.
Build 39 - Casting the feet
I cast both sets of feet in dragonskin silicone. It takes a few hours to cure, I added oil paint to colour them.
Build 38 - Making the shoe molds
I then cast both sets of shoes in fast cast, I drilled a hole in the bottom for wire to go through to suspend the foot plates in.
