Do you know yet what you are making for the King Tut theme? are you planning to do his whole body? the case? his hat?

I would say just use a round large cutter and paint his face in using his hat as filller for the outside. Or, try and find a cutter that's like a sarcophagus. Or a martini shaker...I know i've seen one of those. I'll look around.

you could always make your own cookie cutter.........are you planning on doing the mask thing??? Looks like a pretty simple outline......the details?? that's another thing...I buy a spool of aluminum flashing at the hardware store and cut it with an old pair of scissors ( it will dull them ) and bend it to the correct shape and use this glue stuff, it's called "cold weld" and you mix two blobs of stuff, mix it and put it on the pieces you're joining together and stick a clamp on it......it's dry in under 5 minutes....and permanently cured in 24 hrs. ...I put them in the dishwasher and everything and haven't had any problems.
