Head Shape
Yoda: "With triangle ears create the head round. To create the ear crevice use a toothpick. Yes, hmmm. To while you work put the head on a toothpick. Hmmmmmm."
You will need green clay and create a basic ball shape, from that shape pinch out the ears and smooth the head shape. The ears are in a triangle shape from a round head.
Use a toothpick to create the ear crevice, you might also want to put the head on a tooth pick to avoid some fingerprints while you work.

Head Details
Yoda: "Take clay and roll out a coil. Yes, hmmm. For eye lids and brow cut two pieces. Herh herh herh. With a toothpick make the deep wrinkle crevices on the head. Yes, hmmm."
Take extra clay and roll out a coil. Cut two pieces to size to give eye lids and brow. Use your toothpick again to make the deep wrinkle crevices on the top of Yoda's head.

Eyes of the Master
Yoda: "To be able to see and talk I need."
Roll out a small coil of white clay, cut to size. Lay the coil under the eyelid and flatten it out using a tooth pick. Roll a small ball of green clay and lay it between the eyes and use a tooth pick to give the nose details. Roll out two small balls of black clay lay each ball on the side of the eye and roll it out flat on the white of the eye using a toothpick. Roll a small thin coil out and place it in the shape of a 7 on the face, this will give you his mouth. Lastly, use your toothpick to add more detail to the face adding crevices.

Look at That Body
Yoda: "Look at that body I work out. Herh herh herh."
Roll our a thick coil of brown, cut to size. Push it up through though the toothpick right next to Yoda's head.This will be the base of Yoda's body.

Jedi Robes
Yoda: "To wear Jedi robe I need."
To create a robe for Yoda mix white clay with the brown used for Yoda's body. Roll the clay out into a thin slab and wrap it around Yoda's body. Make folds in the clay to give a realistic feel of cloth. Make sure you leave yourself enough clay the same color of the robe to use later for the arms.

Fancy Feet
Yoda: "To take a walk in my shoes you need."
Roll two small green balls and flatten them out. Take the same brown you used for his body, and roll a thick coil cut two legs out of that coil and place the on top of the feet. Take a toothpick and cutout triangles. This will give Yoda his happy little Jedi toes and details to the feet and legs then place Yoda on top of the feet. (I removed the toothpick from inside Yoda at this point, if your Yoda doesn't seem to be free standing it is okay to leave the toothpick inside)

Arms
Yoda: "My hands feel the force in. Herh herh herh."
Roll out a green coil and using a toothpick cut the end in two and form for Yoda's fingers. Make sure you extend the arms out so you can wrap more clay the same color as the Jedi robe around them.
I cut down a piece of a tooth pick and used a reddish brown clay mix to create Yoda's cane. I rolled a coil and drove the broken toothpick into it and remove the excess. Put one hand on the cane, then the other hand on top of that so they look as if they are resting. Now roll out the rest of the Jedi robe clay color. Cut the robe color slab in half. roll the clay into a cone shape and insert the arm. Adjust the amount of clay and the shape and attach the arms to the side of Yoda.
With your tooth pick added details like folds in the cloth and wrinkles in the hand. Mix a very small amount of green with black. Take a very small amount and put it at the tip tips of his fingers. to give him his long nails.
