    Monster Puppet for Sale

    Etsy sounds much much better than the nickel and dime-ing that eBay does. They obviously have software running on the site, monitoring the auctions to ensure that their ridiculous (and hidden) rules are not broken. So they pulled my listing without warning, and, of course, the listing fees are...

    Hilarious, staceyrebecca! Thanks for all the comments guys.:) Yeah, eBay is really not settling right with me. I'll be limiting my association with those folks.

    Monster Puppet for Sale

    Hi everybody, Well, the greedy folks behind eBay pulled the original listing of the orange monster puppet because I linked to my own site, Project Puppet, in the description. I love those guys and their monopolistic rules. Alright I'll stop. :) At any rate, the monster is relisted for those...

    Yep. They are mine. I found them recently in a box that hadn't been opened since who knows when. The newspaper is from 1990, hard to believe that's 18 years ago. I was a freshman in high school!

    The Foam Book

    For the benefit of others who may come across this thread, I feel obligated to address the hole that is "way too small". I'm assuming it is the neck hole (the hole in the puppet's head that the puppeteer puts his hand through to reach and operate the mouth) that is being referred to. The neck...

    New puppet videos

    Hey rtgentry, That was one of, if not the BEST, Gonzo impressions I have EVER heard. AWESOME! The voice was great, the characterization (is that the right word?) was fantastic. Beautiful!

    Seuss Puppet Help

    Here's something you could try using the Punto Pattern to get a good basis for Morton's head shape. Glue up the Punto foam head without the mouthplates. Seal the exisitng mouth up, gluing the top lip to the bottom lip. Now turn the head on it's side, with the back of the head facing up. There's...

    CGI vs Puppetry

    Just wanted to add my two cents on this very interesting topic. Hands down, storytelling is key. The skill used to make the characters "live" whether it be puppetry or CGI is also key. And bottomline, a good story is a good story, good puppetry is good puppetry, and good animation is good...
