   Start with something like this. It's kind of a fat cylinder.

   For the nose:

   Four little blocks of clay make your piggy's feet XD

   For the tail:
   1.Take some clay and roll it into a thin strip. It doesn't have to be too long.

   3.Place it on the other side of the cylinder.

   Take your head pin and place it on the center of your piggy. I put it between it's legs, so the head didn't show.

   For the last details use two little circles for eyes and two thin stripes for the nose.
   Bake and glaze :3
