    Boiling "Punky Muppet" fur

    I boiled the Punky Muppet fur last night, and WOW! From smooth and silky to rumpled and wooly in a minute! It looks lovely and Fragglish. While it was wet I rumpled it further to make it look shaggier. Have you ever dyed Punky Muppet fur? I'm looking for a dull blue-green, and they don't...

    The Muppet Show Comic Book: the Four Seasons V1 out now

    SPOILERS THROUGHOUT. I got this comic yesterday, and...well, it kind of puzzled me. On first glance I wondered if they'd spliced two seasons together. But, no, the story remained consistent. It would have made a little more sense to me if the Muppets had reacted a little to the...

    Boiling "Punky Muppet" fur

    Thanks once again for the advice! I just got a box o' fur today, and am itching to boil it, but I'm also wiped out from a nasty day at work and will save this task for when I can focus. In the meantime, I'm sewing split ostrich feathers to my puppet's head. (I have no idea what the proper way...

    "Zonked out" - conked out, flopped out from exhaustion. She's worn herself out being adorable and needs a nap before she can commit further acts of cuteness.

    Lola P, sorry, I don't generally do requests. I'm open to trades and commissions, but as I have plenty of irons in the fire at any given time, freebies are not generally on my radar. Sorry. Here's something I doodled up today... Poncle's Zonked: Poncle, Gobo and Red's daughter (in my...

    Henson issues statement about Chick-Fila-A

    I'll be interested when I see evidence that they're no longer supporting organizations that actively seek to suppress and harm gay people.

    I missed that, and, Googling around, I don't see mention of it. Do you have a link?

    Boiling "Punky Muppet" fur

    Thanks for your help. I've placed an order for fur, and while I've been waiting I've been sewing the non-furry parts. I've been using cheap fleece rather than Antron, and now I see what the difference is--I can camouflage the seams, but you can still see where they are by the rumple. Ah well...

    FanFic Library Index

    I've seen people using my OCs without permission occasionally, and that's kind of annoying, but I only get miffed if they abuse the character and/or don't acknowledge copyright. Yet I don't mind at all if people draw my OCs, or anything based on my fanfic without permission; in fact it's like a...

    How I Spent My Summer Vacation (A Muppet Fic)

    *chuckles. Nice work. I really like what you did in this fic. Sweetums at college was a fun idea. I can just see him taking notes, carefully holding a pencil that is the size of a toothpick in his massive fingers. Nice wrap-up. I imagined it as an end-od-summer party, with the camera...

    It was a chocolate chip cookie that looked to be the size of a pizza. Heh, it's just a matter of time before someone writes a fic about the harem Scooter has accumulated in the various series here. But even then, I'd be startled if Janken was included. (But weirder things have happened; a...

    Thanks, guys, glad you like this one. Normally I have whole scenes behind the pics I draw; thid was unusual in that it was just two characters palling around. Fun fact: when I painted it up in Photoshop I was listening to DOOM and DOOM II background music. (When I write I often listen to the...

    Yep. I have no idea who makes them, as I can't see Fraggles smelting metal.

    Walkin' Along, Singin' a Song: Wembley and Gobo are setting off on an advantageous expectoration extraneous application adventurous exploration. Where to? Who cares? As long as they do it together, singing as they go, they'll have a good time. Why yes, I did just watch The Beast of Blue Rock...

    Henson issues statement about Chick-Fila-A

    I believe it comes from the assumption that homosexuality is a disorder, and that something terrible must have happened to turn "those people" into such deviants. It doesn't stand up to close examination.

    Henson issues statement about Chick-Fila-A

    According to this article, the statement on the Berenstain Bears site was removed on Tuesday. It's present on the site now. Hmm. It'd be cool if one of the books CFA is distributing taught the Christian values of "Judge not lest ye be judged" and "Do unto others as you would have them do...

    Frank Oz: "New Muppets Too Cute"

    *sigh* Am I a bad Muppet fan for not hanging on Frank Oz's every word? Yes, the man was an amazing puppeteer and he created some of the most vivid, memorable characters in the troupe, but he's moved on. I wish the media would stop asking the man about the Muppets and let him direct movies.

    Muppet Babies fic: The Muppet from Mars

    Normally I post a blooper reel after my fics. However, I haven't been able to find the film. I just located the canister it was in, and it's perforated by Animal's teeth marks. So, I think it's safe to say that 1) that footage is lost, and 2) I wouldn't want to be the one changing his diaper...

    Henson issues statement about Chick-Fila-A

    We Are Not Arguing Over Chicken: The Huffington Post ran an article that makes the same point I was trying to make a few pages back, about the human cost of the everyday cruelty to gays that most people don't think about, but did it much more articulate-like. Well worth reading.

    Boiling "Punky Muppet" fur

    Cool, I guess that's the way to go then. Thanks. Another newb question: should I boil it before cutting it out or after? I have no idea if fur shrinks or otherwise distorts or not.
