Styrofoam...to the Rescue!

I had a Styrofoam ball in my stash...and with a bit of 
"gentle compression" it filled the skull cavity that was left
after I started sawing and sanding her head away!
Those "chipmunk cheeks" are softened... 
The arms will be re-attached with wooden dowels, 
replacing the original metal screws...
The wood roping on the skirt will add some interest...
And her paper clay "make-over" will transform this sad Santos
into a glorious creature!  (a bit "lofty" in my expectations, huh?)
