Starting a new faerie

I've gotten started on a new faerie. So far I only have the head done minus the ears and got started on a toadstool for her to sit on. I found these wood spindles and thought they may look cool as a mushroom base. So far I like it.




As for the faerie, I haven't entirely decided which way I'm going to go with her. I'm thinking about making a woolly caterpillar to go with her. But I'm not sure if I can get it to look right. I think before I finish sculpting her, I'll try making a caterpillar and see if that's going to work.
