Watto the Star Wars creature

Home for a huge 4 foot plastic hummingbird for the last 5 years

While my son was off living in many places from California to Colorado, Arizona and Montana and Florida to Indiana...as well as a couple of years in the Peace Corps in Jamaica, he left his Star Wars creature with me in storage.  Well a few years the creature was stored in his brother's attic also.

So I carried this strange creature in the back seat under a sheet from North Carolina to Indiana for my son to make a sale or trade with a collector.

Watto, the model about to go traveling

Here he is in Tai's studio at Indiana University.  He caught some students (and teachers) eyes.  Not your ordinatry sculpture!  And not of clay either!
