hummingbird update

Hummingbird slowly coming together. I've been swamped with sewing other stuff, so this has really really been lagging!! At least now it has some skin on it, but it still looks like shit at the moment :)

Rufous Hummingbird....well the inner body and beginnings of the wing structure. At the moment it kinda looks like a baseball meets a fetus with wire handles, but in the picture below you can see how things will take shape.

I can finally get down to making a felt hummingbird...Heat wave over... A couple of weeks ago i finished nuno felting the colour scheme i will use to make a Rufous Hummingbird. They have amazing irridescent quality to their feathers, and I find that rather exciting to try to replicate.
Below is one of these awesome birds and a photo my felt scheme.
