    Can you take a shot with a ruler/tape next to it. Easier to get an idea based on the size. Copper pot scrubber might to it, color wise if you can get the coating of it and let it oxidize.

    Those little Stronghand magnetic triangles are about 2" x 3" so I would say the pouch is just over 6". There are all kinds of solutions for coloring copper. For that matter you can easily electroplate the whole dawg with copper, then fool with colors and have a rust resistant finish.

    Looked up the size of the magnet i used... Dimensions: 2 5/16in.H x 2in.W x 5/8in.D, so about 6" or 7" long maybe?
    I will take a pic with a ruler next week.

    Don't bother on the ruler, I totally missed the magnet. I was just wonder if this was 3", 6" or 12" thing for ideas on the hair..

    Another idea for hair. A little labor intensive, but could be interesting. Take your MIG welder, and with some small MIG wire, zap a bunch of pieces to the body, about an inch or so long. Then you can shape them to suit. Bada bing, instant hair. You could even copy the curls and such.

    Did you try any of your ideas - "rasp at an angle or a die grinder to make light grooves down the back bone"? I was thinking that might work out better than trying to stick on things that look like real hair.
    Is it OK to want to break something just so that you can weld it back together?
