Rudie is made of wood (no cloth on him.......all carved to look like clothing); and has LED lights as well as the fiber optic lights. I decided to do a graphite sketch of him using a bit of artistic license not including lights or the skies he was holding. Instead he's holding cinnamon sticks :-))
I really had trouble with the scarf and even the hat. Trying to make them both look like cloth but I struggled with the folds. My brain was saying it should look one way when the wood carving of these said something totally different. So I was a bit lost when trying to put down on paper.

Pilot Prera with Lexington Gray ink (used in a few areas just to give a little extra dark)
