Hi! I already shown you my self-made Hallucigenia. Here is now my self-made Glyptodon. The belly is a piece of wood, covered with glued rabbit hair, the legs are made with the corks of soap bottles that I screwed underneath it. The back is a Cypraea Tigris shell that I glued on the top of it with silliccone. The tail is a painted Turitella shell. The head was sculpted in a piece of wood and painted, the ears being silliccone "balls" added on it. And this is how I made my own Glyptodon figure.

I like it.... looks very charming. Is it stable enough to be played with?

Yes! The legs are solidly screwed underneath, the head has been nailed on as well as glued, the tail is glued (by silliccone) on a basic piece of wood. And the Cypraea Tigris shell is, well, more solid than we may think.

That's really cool, very creative too!  :)
