Thank you! Your compliments mean alot since I so admire your art!
Actually, not too many inquiries on the "how". I've been able to make it seem all complicated and mysterious!
But to answer...He's all stuffing, then under-the-skin sculpting with string and thread. I start with wool stuffing in a tubular gauze and go from there. I did put some very soft metal in the arms for posing, though. On the next one I make I'll experiment with making the tail posable. I'd like to make them able to hold a sitting posemore easily. To get this one to sit I went light on the tail wool.
