Satin neck, the neck is not glued on yet, just posing for a pic :)

The top came from Uncle Bob! The back and sides are another dip in to Brocks stash :twisted:

Thanks for looking!

No the kitty was done by Paul Bordeaux. His name was George, he was a victim of the melamine pet food poisoning two years back :(
