Step 10Eyes/Nose Insertion to to the Main Piece
Almost finished!
Now we need to carefully cut a small opening on the headpiece for nose and the eyes.
The eyes simply need a small "X" shape cut, because we will again use dowels to create a strong connection.
Whoops- I didn't have any dowels, so I snapped a pencil in half and used that!
Mark the spot where the eyes should go, cut a small x shape, and press the eyes in. Load up the inside with a lot of hot glue to keep these reinforced.
Because the head curves, you can see the dowels (or pencils in my case) sticking out. Again, hot-glue is your friend and by carefully putting it behind the eyes and applying pressure, you should be able to eliminate that problem.
The Nose
The nose is a bit tricky. Again, cut a small opening where the nose will go and slowly pull the excess nose fabric into the underside. You can do this via the underside where your head will go. Load on some more hot glue to the inside to secure the nose.
