The magic dubbing for the thorax is quite a complex mix:1/2 Wool from a ram’s indispensable part, the testicles, if you are not afraid. For the rest of us just standard wool, 1/2 cream seal’s fur. Or just add more wool.A mixture of lemon yellow spaniel. Alternatively you can use fox fur.A bit of the pale pinkish and very fine fur from a hare’s mask.A bit of red mohair or red seal’s fur.
