Operation Mannequin

Well hello there. Meet my slightly disfigured mannequin.

I love creating clothes for myself. I love experimenting with draping of fabrics. For this I needed a mannequin. So, being the DIY sucker that I am, I had to try making one.

I used this tutorial to make my mannequin http://goo.gl/xH7WsE

Thereafter I covered it with paper maché, stuffed it with newspaper and gave it a layer of paint. I used a piece of wood as the base and an empty fabric roll for the stand.

It's supposed to fit to your body. Mine is very much out of proportion. Something is better than nothing right?

This was take 1. Hopefully take 2 would be more successful.
