I have been building this guy in my head for a couple of years now... I made the legs a few years ago and he stopped there... I was having so much fun with the legs... they found themselves sticking out from under my daughters bed... bent over the cistern so he looked like he fell in and so on... well I finally decided to give him a little more personality yesterday... this cute "little" elf that had been growing in my mind grew to be 6 ft tall... not exactly what I had envisioned... I wanted him to sit on an small vintage ladder that I have been hanging on to just for this occassion... even though I grew this monster and I sat him in the chair, everytime I walk in the room he scares the hell out of me... so faceless thrifted Charlie is going to have a few feet of him amputated after Christmas... and if you meet Larry King in person don't tell him he is missing a pair of suspenders...
I found these poor little guys shaking in their boots under the stool... hahaha...

OK...that would scare me too! My son on the other hand thought it was "soooooo cool"..lol
OMG! Crack me up.....as if we all needed a 6 foot man with a musical instrument to make us jump out of our skin every time we enter the room.
BTW, my gram has a wooden twirly stool just like the one next to Scary Board Man....
