Description
As you may have seen, I recently completed my 100th Spyrofoam Model in the form of Dr. Eggman. So I thought it might be fun to try and take a picture of all the models I still have. Of course, about a quarter of the 100 models I've made have been given as gifts to my friends and family, and quite a few others have been thrown out as I've made new versions of them or just needed to clear up space when I've been moving, etc. But, all told, 52 of the 100 models are present in this photo. I regret that I've not made a model of Waldo to hide in there...

But, to clear up a common question, my models are called "Spyrofoam" models as a combination of Spyro the Dragon's name and the word Styrofoam. Styrofoam eggs and balls and such are the main material that I use to create the underlying sculpts of these models, and then I hot glue felt over them to give them their finished appearance. I often use other materials, like craft foam, craft fur, pipecleaners, and dowel rods. But that's the gist of it. Dr. Eggman was the first character I made, but making Spyro was my goal from the beginning. So that's how these models are made, and that's where they get their name. The more you know!
