*Keep on adding the CMC gradually until the paste gets thicker. Add more to the body and the head - they need to be firm, so that they don't sink. Add less to the arms and legs - you want them to hold the shape well, but they can't be very firm since you will need to be able to adjust the shape a little after attaching to the body. As it goes for the hat - add just a little CMC. It needs to be quite soft so that you can modify the shape after you attach it to the head. Add the CMC to the sugarpaste shortly before forming the parts.

Insert the arms and legs into the body. You might need to adjust the shape of the parts a little that is why stick them to the body right away (don't wait for them to dry). You want the base of the arms and legs to touch the body as shown in the photo.
