or: you could make a clay sculpture. Then make a plaster mold out of it and cast foam latex in it. That's how they made Miss Piggy. You can also make a shape for the inside and place it in the mold before you cast the latex. Then you have a hollow puppet and you can stretch the mouth with...

It's funny that this post got back up again. Ever since it started I became addicted to a daily dose of Donald. :)

heh I liked it. Ofcourse I only saw the video and I don't know the rest of the show. But I think it's typical that when a different style puppets than the Muppets come by that they are automatically ugly to most people. Well I like em. As far as I can tell because they aren't in the picture long...

I don't know actually. Maybe I can still find the origional episodes though. I'll check it out. Haven't been able to find the ALF interview yet. :cry: Sorry.

I like it alot! :) keep up the good work and us up to date please.

I guess It's up to people like you and me then to make our own programming and bring those dinosaurs to their knees. ;) Thanks for all the info Andrew. I hate having the wrong impression on matters so... It's always good to be reminded. I still disagree with a few things though. But I...

I can also see both points actually. Oh well... there are forums especially set up for these kinds of discussions. So I guess I shouldn't bore everyone here anymore with my ramblings. That's the smart thing to do. :) I will see if I can get that particular Access Hollywood episode for you...

Well to be honest, about the bad quality of the extra's was hearsay. So I can't say that for sure. Just heard it from someone I trust in these matters. I don't know where he got it from exactly though. But ofcourse the news about the cut episodes is offcially confirmed. I'm already not very...

Hey thanks. I wanted to know so I could perhaps email them with a few specific questions I had about that puppet. But I guess they are probably very busy with being "famous" and all that. :) I won't bother them.

West Coast freelancers...does this mean they are freelancers residing in the west-coast? or is that their company name? or both? heh ;) I just saw that Angel episode "Smile Time" last week and I thought it was pretty funny. I loved all the felt jokes etc. The weird thing is TV-Tome said...

We've heard different stories then about the extra's. Well anyway, I agree with you that a dollar an episode isn't that much if you look at it as just a dollar. But it is alot to me if you concider that I would like to watch everything out there if I could. Even for one dollar an episode that...

Bah! :mad: I just found out the ALF DVD does not contain the original episodes. They decided to cut them up for whatever reason. And the extra's are of a lousy quality apparently. I guess I won't be buying it then but instead I'll be downloading the old syndicated versions. They are burning...

I just saw the pilot (yeah a little late, just a little) :rolleyes: anyway I noticed a great puppet sitting in the auditioning room. It's the one on the left. The toadlike puppet. It looks kind of like what I would like to do. He wasn't moving his mouth or anything so I don't even know if it...

right :) I didn't mean to scare anyone away

WiGgy: Like I said, it's my opinion. I'm allowed to have one. Just like you are allowed to have one. I understand what you mean and can imagine all your different examples. But to me that doesn't change my opinion about this. Besides , contrary to what you suggest, he is actually...

Actually bezalel, there are some people here who worked with the Muppets. And to them it actually might be a personal thing. It would be to me too. They are not just fans but they were even personally involved with the creation of Gonzo perhaps. Copying someone elses stuff may be meant as a...

I don't know those shows. But I happened to come across this lil cutie: :) http://shop.vendio.com/Jinx741/item/660901877/index.html

wow :) Those are great links. Thanks!

Glad to be of help...if I was of any. And good luck with building more puppets. Come back anytime if you have some contruction methods to share. :)

What happened to the Puppetforge? www.puppetforge.com the link is dead :confused: I loved those Rex Racoon movies actually. I downloaded the clips from there if anyone still wants them. And I was wondering if anyone knows of any other puppetry clips online.
