I'm putting together a figure who I think would look great with a cigar stub in his mouth. My plan is to attach it to the corner of his mouth with some glue.
But I'm having trouble thinking of something that would work for the cigar stub. I have been thinking about small cardboard cylinders, but I can't think of any that are skinny enough. Any ideas would be much appreciated. Thanks! |

Maybe paint and cut out a piece of toothpick?

A little piece of "green stuff" rolled like sausage and cut it to the desired size.

Also, you might try getting a piece of plastic, maybe a sprue from a model kit. Heat it up and carefully pull it until it is the desired thickness, then cut to the desired length. That sounded more weird than it was supposed to.

Maybe roll a needle or pin with some masking tape then insert between the lips then cut it to the desired length.
