Shaping the head
Shape the head gives the animal more character. Use thread and sewing needle. The photos illustrate the steps. It is difficult to explain. But by pulling the thread through the head in and out you can shape the head. So please follow the photos.
This is the right shape. You can also make a little mouth. Pull your thread in and out in row 8. See photos
Now you have shaped three spots. You design yourself how far you shape them. The upper two are for the eyeballs. The other one is the mouth.

Fill the cheeks up light... so you shape them.

Put the front legs (thick) for to the body, just next to the neck. The hind legs at the tail. And ready is your salamander.
