Step 9Final Steps, The Dhoti, The Head, Finishing Touches...
1) Attaching The Dhoti The Dhoti, Gandhi's traditional Indian garment, was attached using carpet tubing pegs, holes in the body and velcro. It is best to attach most of these parts prior to attaching the head otherwise you won't get them on over said head! I also positioned and worked out the system for attaching and removing these pieces prior to assembling the upper torso to the figure. See the photos.
2) Attaching the Head Using a scissor lift, the completed head is lifted into position and simply insert the tube into the head support inside the torso and slip into position. As you made this to fit perfectly on the ground this step should be easy.
3) The Ground Surface I kept all the cardboard cuttings from the process of making the Gandhi figure in order to use these to make the ground surface that covers the wooden base platform and gives the figure a naturalistic, dioramic setting.
That is it! Hope these instructions are helpful! If you make a giant Gandhi or other figure using these techniques, please do let me know!
All the best and peace!
