    Fraggle fic: The Minstrel's Path

    Heh, appropriate smiley. Let's just say that Janken finally gets to fulfill an ambition concerning Cantus that he's had for a long time. Scooter doesn't mind; he helps.

    Fraggle fic: The Minstrel's Path

    In The Bells of Fraggle Rock Cantus says "[Gobo] may be as determined as he is wrong. I admire that." I took that to mean that Cantus didn't hold it against Gobo that he didn't believe Cantus, and ignored his advice in favor of going on his little crusade. Cantus may have good reason to be...

    Fraggle fic: The Minstrel's Path

    *edit edit* What do you mean? Cantus was speaking to M'rray, not Jago. Read it again if you don't believe me. Heh, I was being lazy and fiddled that word out of French and Latin. I have a feeling I'm missing something here. Sounds almost like a Seuss reference. but then, Murray looks kinda...

    The Minstrel's Path Part 8 by Kim McFarland ***** Jago was still playing the Magic Pipe, and M'rray his guitar, when they arrived at the Fraggle colony. Curious Fraggles, summoned by the unearthly melody, stared in shock at the weird creature who was walking beside Jago. M'rray hid his...

    Heh, Skeeter might have gone native in Fraggle Rock, or she might have been hanging around with Janice. She's clothed now; I've posted pictures to my DeviantArt page and to my thread in the "Puppet Building and Performing" forum.

    "Crash and Bernstein" puppet show debuts on Disney XD

    I watched the first episode online. Well...part of it. Up until the puppet headbutts the kid. By that time I'd seen quite enough and hit the back button. The family is annoying and cliche. Crash is Walter with "attitude" in place of charm and craftsmanship. I don't find anything aout the...

    My second puppet: Skeeter

    Thanks, guys. As I said, I was basing mine on Amy Mebberson's Skeeter design. I couldn't give her hair like that, though; I couldn't think of a way to make it that wouldn't have made her look like she was part Twi'lek. I ended up using the thickest yarn I could find in a decent color...

    My second puppet: Skeeter

    After building Janken Fraggle I felt ready to tackle a canon character, one who actually has to look like something we've seen before. Well, sort of; Sheeter was Scooter's twin sister in Muppet Babies, and had no other canon appearances outside of kiddie books, if you count those as canon...

    Puppets Gone Wild: not posting the image here because of full puppet nudity. Well, partial; some puppets kind of don't exist below the waist. Which must be inconvenient. Um, when it comes to sitting down. Because they don't have butts. Um, I'll stop now.

    Fraggle fic: The Minstrel's Path

    Flowers often bloom when Cantus plays; I couldn't resist the imagery, foreshadowing what is to come. I like to imagine that Ditzies are also attracted to his music, so when he walks the dark tunnels he seems to carry an unearthly glow along. The song he was playing was indeed the tune for Let...
