    Kermit v5 (and last) finished!

    He looks fantastic! Do you know the sizes for the head and body or they're just calculated from photos?

    How to start making puppets?

    Hi Chuck. Excuse me because my natural language is Spanish, not English. I'm new on this but I understand he's not made with the usual patterns. He has been sculpted, they took a cast and made him with latex foam. Later he has been flocked. That's what has been used since some seassons for Miss...

    How to start making puppets?

    I have a question. Do you think it's necessary to cover the inside with some cloth?

    Kermit v5 (and last) finished!

    Does anyone really know how tall is Kermit now or the real sizes of his head, mouth, arms? I want to try building my own Kermit Muppet but I'm not sure about those things. Thanks everyone!

    And now for something completely different: Recently we commemorated the loss of Jim Henson. We really need him. I share here an illustration I made time ago (I'm an illustrator). I hope you enjoy it: http://diego-fiorucci.blogspot.com.ar/2017/03/fantoches-del-piano-jim-henson-rowlf.html...

    It happens the same here in Argentina. I think I could try with some non-slip mats, but I'm not sure about their thickness, and they surely would not be as cheap as buying the material.

    No, I thank you! I know that. I will do that when I can, but that's the idea. We (me and other artists) are working on making a studio. There are great artists here and we need to work in better projects.

    How to start making puppets?

    Yes, I know. It's just I started with works here in my country, and then I hadn't enough time to translate all. I'm in Facebook too. But there's all in Spanish. However I participate in many international groups. https://www.facebook.com/diego.fiorucci.758

    But, it's also in English. If you look at each post, it's in Spanish first and below it it's in English. And the titles are in both languages. I teach Portrait and Caricature, Drawing workshop, Character creation for Animation and Concept Art.

    How to start making puppets?

    All that in my blog is mine. You can even see older posts. Almost all the blog is in Spanish (because I live in Argentina), and English (because it's the universal language). I've worked in animation, I make caricatures from photos for clients, I illustrate books, I've made covers for magazines...
