I Am Making A Chess Set, Part 2 king

I am making a set for my roommate for Xmas ... I am using a combination of paper mache and salt flour dough and bottle caps ... here’s the under structure of the king... which I will paper mache and paint.

I cut a piece of cardboard out w a pinking shears...

Stuck it in the dough in the bottle cap, bakes at 270 degrees for 2 hrs

Cut out a crown next I will paper mache and paint
