Thanks, I use the puppeteer unite tutorial, very friendly to follow. I just add elastic to the trigger to ensure the eyes will turn back easily.

pdt. LOve your talking bible!

The arms are rather long.
Long arms can be very expressive and an excellent resource for the puppeteer to create actions and moods.

Look at the designs of Gonzo, Kermit, Animal, Floyd, Grover, Janice... ALL have very long arms.

I think the same first time that I see it, but after play around whit him, I like the arms movement, and remind me to grover, and I like it more!
Maybe we need to see it in action, but I’m just starting whit puppet and I’m not very good puppeteer.
