I am trying to make an animal beside some wire I own. I have the form of the anime down next to the wire, you could utter I have his skeleton down, but what could I use for skin?
Answers:    I help my grand daughter build one for conservatory. She had to use what be at home. We made the flour and water mixture near strips of the local newspaper. Leave the layer dry good, it works best if you don't rush it.
