NICE! Great work! Looks amazing.

I'm thinking the body has a hunched back- long and skinny trenchcoat- black. Maybe a rough top hat like the mayor wears in Nightmare Before Chistmas :-)

I purchase mine from Home Hardware here in Canada. It'll run you $19.99. I tried Home Depot months ago and the sales person said they don't carry it anymore. If you can, order the spray form; the other "dipping" seems to dry out fast. If you can't I would recommend dipping as much as you can...

I once heard David Goelz was always self conscience about his singing capabilities. I find I always have a better singing voice when I sing in a characters voice though :-)

I have so many DVD sets I'm still crawling through- all Muppet stuff too! Whew! Love the show Steve! The Sam Plenty episode... you have to take it tongue and cheek I guess- I laughed when I noticed Allan Trautman as the professor LOL We shall see how that show goes...reminds me of the movie...

Foam Core, sign material, gasket rubber, plastic, wood- do a search ppl posted answers to your question

Thanks Buck-Beaver for referencing my post! Great work Stacey- I love the voice!

Trigger His did have your finger go inside, I believe. I found all the forums here about blinking eyes follow the same sort of therory, ppl just change them some to suit their hands and manipulation "style". :D

wrong page You were on the wrong page- Here is the direct link to my "Puppet Building Tutorial" page: http://puppeteersunite.com/?page_id=588 The other pages were the diagrams on Michelle's Puppet Planet Page- I used for reference- hmmmm, her page must be down. I think I have the diagrams on...

Puppeteers Unite has posted a video on making a puppet blinking eye mechanism- very basic, and informative. This is not my design- it was taken from various sources on the net. I just wanted to show it visually to those who have difficulty envisioning the steps, or how things are built. Enjoy...

Project Puppet If you are starting I would highly recommend Project Puppet- their patterns are well worth the money, and it is truely a great starting point in learning how a puppet is built. Go for the cheaper pattern first :) Another really good starting point is the Swazzle Puppet...

I purchased both and learned lots from them- however, I found the second one to be more informative and "indepth". Overall I give both a 10 outta 10 for content. I know this doesn't help since you have already got them butfor thos4e out there thinking about it- I recommend it.

I received the following email, and said I'd post it here. Please be aware that I don't know these ppl...I'm just trying to help them find a puppeteer. Hello, My name is Allyson Schwarz, I am a graduate film production student at UCLA, I am about to enter production for my advanced film. The...

To start a hole... Use the tip of your glue gun, or a wood burner- it'll melt right through and can become a starting hole to cut through the ping pong ball...just a thought :-)

Ha Ha! I love this thread! I wish I had an endless supply of white Sharpies- I hate trying to trace patterns on black with black Sharpies. Whenever I see white Sharpies I buy them all!

You could also use a makeup brush and dark powered blush- but make certain you try the technique on scarp first. I apply the makeup to the backside of my hand first to get the majority of the power off first- then apply it on lightly. Like I said practice :-)

As Ron Weasle would say..."Bloody Brilliant!" Amazing advise!
