The whole Scarecrow was molded and mached ontop of a ACC bucky Upper Torso when the Mache dried I pulled it off and reinforced the mache then I used spray foam Unsulation to fill in the open space. the chest cavity head and arms are filled with foam. The Teeth and hands were made with hot glue I made a inpression in white air drying clay let it dry 24 hours and filled the mold with hot glue.      Good Luck Everyone
