Thanks! Convincing John

Thank you!:):excited::sing: Convincing John

You're not the only one... Yeah, I've never cared much for Valentine's Day either. Apparently Kermit doesn't either (check out the Andy Williams Muppet Show episode). What really bugs me is the commercial sappiness to get people to buy more stuff. I have no girlfriend, and I'm pretty...

Another Olivia Commercial! Hey! Olivia's got another new commercial! They've been showing this H&R Block commercial (I saw it on Fox this evening during King of the Hill) and I'm almost absolutely sure it's her on there. I've only seen the commercial twice so far. Olivia fans, keep your...

Hey everyone, With the Muppet figure line coming to a close, I'm thinking about making some of my own figs out of Sculpey of characters that were never made. When I'm done, I'll display 'em with the Palisades ones. I'd really like to make some Land of Gorch figures, but I was wondering if...

Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find a good color photo of Lily Tomlin and Scred together from that "I Got You Babe" number...I've only seen a small black and white one, and the caricature at Tough Pigs. There USED to be a really cool Land of Gorch site with a...

I'd like to write to Jane Henson and also at some point to Karen Prell and Jerry Nelson. I've never written a Muppeteer a fan letter before, and I was just wondering since Jerry's retired (well almost) would I send my fan letter to him to the Sesame Workshop address? (Since he still performs...

You don't have to wait! Here's a link to all of the celebrities (some were still in progress when I scanned these images) http://photobucket.com/albums/v260/ConvincingJohn/Basketball%20Gilda/?start=all And if you just want to see the Muppeteer ones, here's links to those: Jim Henson...

The Nanny Mystery is Solved! Go to this link to see the true promo cel for Nanny...straight from the Henson archives. At last...the world now knows what the upper half of Nanny looks like. By the way, all your guesses to how her face and hair look are way off! Just click here...and...

Hey everyone, I was just wondering, with Disney owning the Muppets...does JHC still own the Land of Gorch characters? Since they were referred to as "Muppets", does Disney technically own them? Does SNL own them? These guys are among my most favorite of Jim Henson's creations, and I just...

Yeah, he did have his hair that long years ago. When I drew him, I used the book "Of Muppets and Men" as one of my main references. I used p. 130 and yup, his hair really is that long in the photo! Since he appears with Linda Ronstadt, I'd guess the photo is from 1981. Another long-haired...

Yes! Actually, Richard's outfit is based on all three of Scooter's popcorn-related moments from TMM, GMC and TMTM.;) The vendor box reads "Only a buck" the same price Scooter sold popcorn for in TMM. The red and white hat is inspired by the one Scooter wore in GMC Richard's...

Photos on new site! Okay, everyone, I've been working on getting the photos on another site, so that a simple click will get you there. The reason I put the photos at the other link is that it belongs to a Gilda Radner fan club group who wanted to see them. Now with MC'ers being curious...

I'm working on getting the photos on another site, so just a direct link will get you there. Stay tuned, Beau! Convincing John

Quite a while! This drawing took me about a year to do, but I've always loved to draw...ever since I was a little kid. I know I have some Fraggle drawings I made somewhere from when I was about 8 or 9. Thanks for the compliments on the drawings!:D I'm posting them elsewhere as well, so...

Hmmm... I think so. They must have altered the site a little since I last added photos, so I think you have to join the group now in order to see the photos. I know that it's free and easy to join (like MC) and you can delete your membership right away if you wish. Sorry for any...

Great news, everybody!!! For those of you waiting to see Jim Henson and his fellow Muppeteers in the drawing for Gilda's Clubs I'm making (discussed at this link): http://forum.muppetcentral.com/showthread.php?t=14779 you're in luck! The "Basketball Gilda" pictures are finally on the...

Maybe your local Wal-Mart would have something... I'm not sure of the kind of dreadlocks you need, but I am currently planning to build a puppet that has dreadlocks, and (as Roosevelt Franklin Would say) "I looked around, and here's what I found": I went to my local Wal-Mart one day to...

Yep, it's done! I'm going to try to get some photos on the web soon. Oh, no one's buying it. I'm donating it to a charity, the Gilda's Club Desert Cities in Cathedral City, CA. The drawing will be on permanent display there for everyone to enjoy. It's made especially for the Gilda's Club...

It's DONE!!! Well, folks, the drawing of Gilda Radner playing basketball is finally finally FINALLY finished! (Whew!) It's being framed right now, and if all goes well, the Gilda's Club Desert Cities will have it in their possession in mid-February. Just to let you all know, Mel Brooks is...
