Well, the Dipper Pines puppet is finally finished. He ended up as a ventriloquist puppet and the kid it was build for can't wait for Monday to come so he can get his hands on it. Here are some pictures of the final puppet.

I'm happy to give you a quote if you want to have a look on my website (listed below) depending what type of materials you are looking for it to be done in. Anthony

Hi all, I recently found a box in my loft containing six of the Muppet busts by Sideshow. I have seen these up for sale on ebay for up to $400, but to me that is just silly money. I am looking to sell them as they have been in the box (and in their own boxes) for around four years now so...

Third time lucky for this little guy after he wasn't paid for a second time by another buyer. I'm sure he's starting to feel a little unloved. His auction ends tomorrow so hopefully this time he will find himself a home...

Here is a picture of the puppet as it is now. Just the shoes and body warmer to go.

Well I know I've paid a minimum of about £45 for 2m x 1m half inch sheet foam so the price definitely caught my eye. If its nearby even better because you can save on the £6 postage :)

It's a little bit time sensitive this one, but if anyone if looking for reticulated foam then these packs of 5 pieces of 40cm x 40cm x 5cm is a bargain at £21 with postage included. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/251405837657?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 The auction with the...

When I began making puppets, long before i decided to set up Old Enough To Know Better Puppets and even think of building the custom puppets i have over the last year, all i wanted was to make a large replica of one particular muppet character. That was this guy... He was said to be amazing...

These guys just get better and better. Amazing job so far and some inspired techniques used to make each of the characters stand out in their own unique way. These same characters could have been made with bog standard, if well made, materials and looked just like any regular puppet but the...

Hi all, Here are some early images of one of the latest custom orders I'm working on. The puppet is based on a children's character called Dipper Pines from a Disney Channel show called Gravity Falls. It's always interesting trying to work out what a 2d character looks like as a puppet...

Just to let you know this guy has been relisted as the buyer said they thought they had retracted their bid and wouldn't be able to pay for him. Here is the new link. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=151223304401

Into the last 24 hours. Still time to grab this little red guy. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/151219598392?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

Agreed...one of the best Gobos I've seen including the original puppets.

Hi guys, Here is the link for the latest Old Enough To Know Better Puppets creation. He's on eBay until Saturday 1st Feb. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=151219598392 Thanks for looking.

So, while waiting on some materials making their way across the Atlantic for a custom order I thought i might as well put together something from the spare head and body parts I had from a recent spurt of prep work. I guess he's a bit of a grouchy monster. He actually had three different...

Well....as it turns out this guy wasn't meant to be called Hamish and is now under the guise of Ernie Gurnie. While I'm in the middle of sorting out his permanent role he's been hired out for a couple of eductational videos for First Graders in the US. This is his - and my - first video with...

The camera screen is how I work at the moment. I have a Canon camera with a line in socket and a flip out screen. I have been thinking of moving to a stand alone camera for a while but finding one with line in is a nightmare. I have resigned myself to the fact that i'll have to combine the...

Funnily enough Terry i just saw the pictures on yours on another thread and then they popped up here as well ha. He's certainly as close to the real thing i think you can get. It made me think again about whether i prefer dyed foam or covered fleece. I could certainly have done with seeing...

Here is one of my new puppets that i usually create between orders and put up on eBay, however this time, just like David Tennant's Doctor Who, he doesn't want to go and has instead taken root and pitched a YouTube film review series. So while he preps himself for that, here is his first photoshoot.
