Today I had April wrap me up in duct tape to make the dummy for costuming. She wrapped me in a horizontal layer of duct tape, then a vertical one, then another horizontal. Then she drew reference lines across my back with a sharpie and cut me out of it. The whole process took about an hour and a half. It was sweaty as hell inside the thing, and I was glad to be cut out of it. Now I just have to wait for it to dry out (soaked in sweat) before I seal it up and start stuffing. It only took two rolls of duct tape (55 yards each) at $2.79 a roll. Tomorrow I will buy some bags of stuffing, I'm sure it's gonna take quite a bit to get this thing stuffed. I am naming my duct-tape-double "Silver Drake"<br>
