    More Labyrinth figures: Hoggle! Sir Didymus! Ambrosious!

    Sorry for the late reply Trent. Glad you like them - they put a smile on my face every time I walk by them on my shelf. You can find me on DA at: http://el-macho-muchacho.deviantart.com

    More Labyrinth figures: Hoggle! Sir Didymus! Ambrosious!

    I didn't realize until I went to your Deviantart page that you were the artist who sculpted the Hoggle model I used as reference for my little version. I was awed by that sculpture and really studied it when I plotted out my figure. I owe you thanks - if not for your version, mine wouldn't exist.

    More Labyrinth figures: Hoggle! Sir Didymus! Ambrosious!

    Thanks guys. These are quite a hit over at my usual custom figure forums so I wanted to share them with folks who have more Henson/Froud appreciation. The base figure for Ludo is a Sully figure from Monster's U with a scratch sculpted head. Hoggle was an Ewok figure that I sculpted over head...

    New Ludo Custom Figure

    I've been thinking about making this figure since the first Monster's Inc movie merchandise hit shelves, as I always thought Sully would make a great base figure. Sadly, I never got around to buying a Sully. When the new figures hit stores to promote the sequel, this was a no brainer...

    Introducing "Fred Fanboy" I think...

    Just a quick bump. Keith at Puppet 365 was kind enough to give Fred a little shine and selected him as "Puppet of the Day" for February 7, 2013. If you haven't visited the site or submitted a puppet, you should. http://puppets365.com

    Increase in Commercial Television Puppetry

    Speaking of, did anybody see the new Zoosk ad featuring a talking heart puppet? http://blog.zoosk.com/2013/01/08/check-out-zoosks-new-commercial-and-puppet-heart-friend/ Not the cutest puppet and the puppetry is rough but its still nice to see puppets featured in advertising.

    "Crash and Bernstein" puppet show debuts on Disney XD

    Those interview clips are better than any of the episodes I've seen thus far. That said, my 4 and 6 year old love it and it gives us a puppet show to watch outside of Muppet DVDs and Sesame Street. ...and Avengers is the best show on D XD, followe by Ultimate Spider-Man. Just saying.

    Overweight puppets

    Alright, I'm convinced. Despite the fact that I'm actually getting used to the weight, I'm going shopping for 1/2 inch foam and some L200 this weekend and will re-do Fred's body. I put this much time into him, might as well get him as close to perfect as possible. Thanks for the links...

    Overweight puppets

    @LoLa, L200 is your common craft/fun foam, right? If so, I've used that for all my monsters and like it. @ Slackbot, I think it comes down to building weird puppetry muscles that aren't normally worked. Every morning I do 3 sets of 30 pull-ups with 3 sets of 30 push-ups in between, so you'd...

    Introducing "Fred Fanboy" I think...

    Thanks LoLa. Once I have his voice down and the performance chops, I would like to take him to a con. I think it would be cool to conduct some man on the street interviews with him for YouTube.
