Powertex Figure with Hat

 

I used an empty 250ml plastic Colgate mouthwash bottle for the body. As it's plastic I covered it in masking tape first, gave that a coat of bronze powertex and then wrapped it in powertexed t-shirt fabric.

Next I started on the skirt using pieces of t-shirt fabric.

I used paper decoration for the top half of the body and also used a piece of thick cotton lace to give her a scarf.  Then I set about making her a hat.

Next I need to sort her face out.

And a view from the back.

So I powertexed her face white, gave her a bit of face paint and some hair.  Coloured the fabrics with a variety of blues until I was happy with the colour combo.

And this is the view from the back.

And the left side.

And the right side, with her ear-ring.

And this is the bottom of the plastic Colgate bottle.
