I was able to use structural supports, which was part of the reason it was so much easier than the stuff I usually make for competitions. The arms were made the same way as the legs. I rolled raw gingerbread over some dowel rods, baked it in the oven, sanded it down with my sander, and covered it in ginger clay.
