Hi Guys,
Do I do the voice? Passable, not great.
His eye Mech broke about two days after I finished him and I have not the time nor the wanting to open his head back up. So I will leave him blinkless for now.
Do I make and sell them? No, Not unless you are Disney or a Disney Licence...

Hi Guys,
I was at the "Hollywood show" here in Burbank today and met Caroll Spinney. I purchased his book "The Wisdom of Big Bird". He also did a drawing for me in the front cover. (will have to up load The Photo) What a nice man. He talked about his work on SS.
As always with every one of the...
Hi staceyrebecca,
You may be able to move them if you heat the eye up with a hair dryer. Just put it on a warm setting and blow around the eye untill you can move it. Just ddo not stay in one place to long so you do not melt or burn the fabric.

Hi,
Yes you could but the floral foam is very soft. It does not take that much pressure to sand it down, you can almost use just your fingers to form it. But do it outside as the dust can get every were and where a mask. The dust is not good for you. A little speck in your eye will make your...
Hi,
Don't vacumform over styrofoam it will melt from the heat of the plastic being formed. Use floral foam or a denser foam like balsa foam. It will not last that many pulls, maybe two. after you make the first pull pour plaster or hydrocal into the plastic to make hard molds that will last. I...
Hi Melonpool,
How about just vacumforming over a real corn cob and puting two halfs together.
Mike
P.S. I can also still help you with making copys of your eyes.

Raw uncut sheets of eyes
Vacumformed under skulls and body's
Pre-made foam noses
Pre-made foam arms and bodies, etc. etc.

Hi Stacey,
If they have seen your other puppets then they know what they will be getting, so I would not even be worried about it.
Next time let them choose: "Good - Fast - Cheap" tell them to pick two and only two.
If its "good and fast" it is not going to be cheap!
If its "fast and...
Hi,
Carve it out of styrafoam and cover it in vinyl or "sculpt or coat".
You could also sew a long tube of fabric with a little filler in it and just roll it up.
hope this helps,
Mike
Hi Muppetfan89,
You can add Acrylic paint to the latex to color it. As well as "All tint" which is water base and can be purchased at most paint stores in small tubes or in 16 and 32 oz. bottles. Just mix to your liking. Just to let you know it does dry darker than what it looks like wet.
Hope...
Hi Guys,
