Count Bessie

For Golden-Con, I recreated everyone’s favorite showbiz chicken, Count Bessie. That’s right, she’s a piano playing chicken!

the inspiration
foam for the body
dowels and hot glue for the feet
PVC for the base. Foam and wood for the piano.
I hand-laid over 500 feathers. And googled “chicken faces” more times than I can count.
