Step 21 :
Roll 2 x 1.25 grams of fondant into balls and then using your balling tool , create 2 little ears – give them a pinch at the bottom and leave them aside to dry .
Step 22 :
Create 2 holes into his head as space for the ears to be pushed into later . Leave aside to dry .
Step 23 :
Roll out 35 grams of darker fondant for the mane . I used my trusty round cutters . The smaller gave me the right measurement of Roarsome ’ s head and the larger , I selected approx 2 cm larger .
Step 24 :
Punch out a few sizes and lengths as shown .
Step 25 :
Using an embosser wheel on different angles and directions , cut lines to form the mane , ensuring you do not cut all the way through .
Step 26 :
I used a new make up sponge as a spacer to create space as I layer on the mane .
Step 27 :
Add a little glue around his head , and place the longest mane in place .
