That is the pattern I used, i only used the mouth plate and the head pattern but i just kept scaling it up until the marking of the eye was same size of the half ping pong eye. Just a little tip i used one peice of antron for the head, placed two pattern head peices like a mirror image and...

I simply boiled the fur and let it dry naturally and it looks as good as the tv Elmo. http://www.flickr.com/photos/53875519@N02/5250684253/

i made 3 or 4 foam bodys before i got my kermit shape It takes time getting it just right as i wanted as few seams as possible. It is almost like an egg with the top and bottom cut off, if you get a large enough peice of antron you can get the body done in 2 peices, you just have to pull it very...

My Kermit was made using the photopuppet pic that has been taken appart then photographed. its on google under kermit pattern. I used a ping pong ball and cut it in half and used that to scale up, the ping pong ball is approx 40mm across so just scale the pic up until the eye is same size as...

Here in the uk it isnt easy to find anything, I used a sandwich of felt then rubber (actually a pair of shoe soles from the coblers) then a thick leather and then some felt to stop the sweating. It worked out well for me.

fur Foam isnt easy to come by in the shops here in uk, most upholstery stores only sell it 1 inch thick or thicker and really doesnt need to be any thicker than half an inch. it isnt easy to cut it down either. I used ebay and bought half inch sheets for my puppets. i have attached a link for 2...

The eyes are 2 part 50mm xmas baubles that have been glued together filled and painted, this is a good time of year to stock up on them, i bought them off ebay here in the uk. I cut the bottom off and glued in the stalk from those half dome eyes that are everywhere and used this to attach to the...

thanks alot, it is my aim to replicate kermit as close as possible to the henson puppet rather than todays version then going to make an elmo for my son.

Here are updated pics of my almost finished kermit reporter. I have to yet add the microphone (which is a broken singstar mic), also going to redo the hat, eyes are not the final eyes they are mock up eyes, i need to paint some pingpong balls to make them glossier. Also going to strengthen...
