FELT

Using light grey felt cut out 2 oval pieces for the Baymax’s sides, 2 half circles for the top side of his legs, 2 circles for his elbows and 1 smaller circle for his chest. See photos for reference in shapes and placements. As always, I recommend using a photo of Baymax to ensure best possible outcome.
