#474 Porygon-Z

Of all of evolutions of Porygon, this was probably the hardest.  The head of Porygon-Z is made basically exactly like Porygon2’s.  The only difference is color of the eyes and the horn on the top of the head.  I had to figure out how to attach the head to make it look like it is floating above the body.  I tried using chenille stems but the head would not stay upright without help.  For some reason the picture would not upload upright.
