The dressmaker's dummy

I've wanted a dressmaker's dummy for quite some time now.
I've failed twice, trying to create one myself.
I tried to make one out of fabric and another using the "ducttape method". I ended up buying this dummy.
It's not very stable but it was cheap and it had about the right measurements.
In this picture the dummy is wearing part of the costume I made for the Elf Fantasy Fair in september 2009.

I probably won't uplaod any of my previous works, but from this point on I'll post updates on what I'm working on at that moment.
I'll try to be faithful :P
