A photo of a felt humanoid figure with wool clippers posed in his hand. He has a plastic white mask around his head and a black cape tied to his neck. He's a slasher. The body of the figure is made to look like he is wearing a camo jacket, gray sweatpants, long navy gloves and boots.

A photo of a felt project in progress. It is the humanoid slasher from the first image, but his head has not been created yet. A bit of the red pipe cleaner skeleton is peeking out of the neck hole. Felting needles pin his mask through the eyeholes in the space where his head will be, and another needle pins his chest.

A close-up photo of the felt slasher with wool clippers posed in his hand. He has a plastic white mask around his head and a black cape tied to his neck. The photo has an intense red filter.

I wanted to make a felt slasher using this mask + cape from a hot sauce bottle, so I did. Until he gets his own weapon, he can hold my wool clippers. He has a pipe cleaner skeleton, so he's slightly posable!
