Genius, I actually used a popsicle stick for mines but used a hobby knife to shred the wood and make it more straw like. I then glued the shreds to give it a aged look. I also painted in a lighter brown and black washed it after. The black wash was very watered down I only wanted it to seep into the cracks. But that depends on how clean looking your figure design is. But this is ironic cause I used this very method of construction for my bruce lee figure.

He's at it again. You could put the string through holes in the hat before you put the layers of tale are on so there is a mechanical and chemical connection and give a cleaner look.

You know what might be cool… Use your same exact tech nique, but when you lay out your blue tape spray it with spray glue and glue some cheesecloth flat onto it... Might give it that weaved straw look

I ended up with a total mental block...I am doing it in 1:6th but this could be used for any scale.
