MRSBO Story Book Victims - Humpty Dumpty

Once upon a time...Mrs Blathersby asked the children of the orphanage to tell their favorite Fairy Tale or Fable. And being that most of the unfortunates at the orphanage are mentally unsound their favorites stories all celebrate those with decidedly tragic or unhappy endings (at least their versions do). One of the stories told by the children is the story of the hapless Humpty Dumpty and his fall from the wall and the mess he made.

His widow was fined, you know, for the cost of the cleanup.

That is completely fantastic! I tried to picture it when you said that you had trouble sculpting it in pieces. I love it.
