I had a few people asking how I made my lil sun doll so i figured I'd try to make a tutorial I'm not great at explaining stuff though-

What you'll need
·model magic clay
·craft felt
·acrylic paint
·polyester stuffing
·a chopstick (optional but it'll make life easier)
·metallic beads
·high-temp hot glue
·super glue
·some type of sealant
·scissors
·thin red ribbon and slightly thicker red ribbon

Step 1
sculpt hands, face, neck, and feet out of model magic
The neck and face should be separate pieces
Make sure to add flairs to the ankles wrists and base of the neck to help hold them in place when you assemble him

Step 2
Once the pieces are dry break apart any loose or weak joints and superglue them back together so they dont fall apart later
Paint, and seal

Step 3
Cut the rays out of felt leaving tabs on the ends so that you can attach them to the back of his face using high-temp hot glue, cover the ends with a circle of black felt and press it as flat as possible, once cooled attach his neck using hot glue as well and hold it tightly in place until it cools
Now his head is complete

Optional: before gluing on his rays you can add a gradient to them using acrylic paint

Step 4Cut out felt pieces for his torso and pants making them slightly larger than they need to be for seam allowance and making his torso longer than is necessary so you can attach his legsTip: fold the felt in half to cut out both sides at onceC...

Cut out felt pieces for his torso and pants making them slightly larger than they need to be for seam allowance and making his torso longer than is necessary so you can attach his legs
Tip: fold the felt in half to cut out both sides at once
Carefully glue the edges of the pieces together, leaving openings at the waist, neck, and ankles

Once the glue is cooled, carefully turn the pieces inside out (you may need a chopstick to help with the legs)
