This "Santa" was done as a commission and currently greets folks during the Christmas season in a beautiful Sugar Land, Texas home.  
When we transported him there we removed the head for ease of transportation.  We received some strange stares from our neighbors - I'm sure they thought we had beheaded Santa.  This photo was taken in our Entry Hall before we delivered him.

Polymer Clay was the primary medium used for this figure. The suit is custom made for him. He is built on a threaded steel rod armature which extends through the base to keep him upright.   He is 69" tall.
