Here are some jigs that we made up the body is wrapped in thread in powder paint . be very careful if you attempt this I use a heat gun and do not get it to high with some practice you will get on to it but I do enjoy a making these jigs.

very nice ties snake

it looks very tricky getting the paint hot and not burning the threads

nice job sir

Wow! I'm impressed. They look great! What did you use to cover the hair/feathers with while painting?

it is a little tricky but with a little practice you will get on to it very quickly.

we wrapped the feathers with thread and then I heat the jig but do not overdo it with heat dip it in a powder paint and then put it back over your heat and then you are usually finished then you can go ahead and use vinyl paint for the eyeballs it is a little tricky but once you get on to it it is a breeze I will try to post some pictures step-by-step in the future.
