If you want my vote, try making one. I suggest projectpuppet.com for patterns if you're new. I find puppet making to be really fun, and i believe you may get hooked on having different colored characters. I'm not positive if having your own Fraggle (not any used on the screen) built is...

Bannanasketch, i actually didn't know. I've been trying to keep up with the news behind the Muppet movie and Fraggle movie, but there is a lot more chitter chatter then news so i skim through the forums like every other month. sry beaker, i haven't looked around. i had the parade set on my...

The Today host announced the Muppets will be getting their walk of fame star next year, AND next year on Christmas Day the Muppet Movie will be released in theatres! HUGE NEWS because we haven't heard of an official release date till now.

Thnx for sharing this! That is awesome! Also, if anyone is interested, on that site i found a video of the parade.

The Blues you two are looking at is too dark. Heres the [[ Cookie Monster ]] i made, with fabric which is rare to find at Jo Anns. I've been told before its out of stock for 3 years, but seldomly i come by it.

XD i dont normally do the hoody thing but i figured i'd get a reaction out of it. A friend said i looked like i was going to mug someone lol

The super 77 helped on some other body pieces. Thanks for the tip on that one guys. However, my thinking of paint and latex didn't really thicken it that much. Wasn't as runny tho. But still not thick like goopy.

::click:: "Like" Congrats on the new talent too btw :)

Well my first 3 layers are still there... should i still use a spray on top? how many times should i spray?

Thnx! I'll have to add more paint then. I wanna stop it from being runny. I was thinking thats the way to go too, but didnt wanna waste another quart. Thnx for the help everyone!

When you say "sealer" does this mean i should have used a type of glue as a foundation first? I've used thicker latex on foam before and it worked just fine. Like i said tho, we mixed paint with it first. So, does anyone think it was it the paint that made it thick and not so runny?

The liquid latex i used before, was not so watery. It was much thicker. This is for scars and such and anything for skin, but it drips like crazy. The turtle shell isnt the main issue. I made the back with model magic and the front i was just trying this stuff out. The Halloween costume is...

Thnx for taking the time to read I've used liquid latex on foam once before, however i wasn't the one preparing it. Figured i could just open a quart of this, pour into a bucket, and paint on the foam... well, its REALLY watery... I remember it being thick. And its being soaked into the foam...

Really awesome! And i kid you not, but i will TOTALLY go and see this movie in theatres, because you're in it. Ok, so Anna Faris is another reason to totally go see this movie... but still, a fellow member of MC, and you being another puppeteer who isn't normally in the movie biz, i will...

thnx for the tip! I went to the big name stores, even tried Home Depot for the heck of it thinking maybe ppl use latex for plumbing? lol i know, silly.. but none had it. HOWEVER, i came to a seasonal Halloween store which just happened to carry latex in the same quart size containers you'd...

i might have to go with that website after all. I went to some stores and they sell latex paint... i'm sure thats not what i'm lookin for tho. Will there be something i need to buy to mix with it? it put on before the latex?i've only done this once before. i remember making things with...

Thnx Buck, as mentioned i know of places that i can buy cheaper for large amounts, but i'm thinking about making just a dragon, or even a bird. With a bird i'll just need to do the beak... or maybe i'll even combine the two, bird head and body, but reptile type hands... hmmmm lol. Any...

Just to add to that, which was an EXCELLENT idea... i also suggest, while in the car, judgeing songs or anything you see, as your character. If its a street you've been down for years, become that character discovering it for the first time. If you work with a group of people, try this with...

I'm trying to grab some reliable and inexpensive resources for latex. I usually dont use latex for puppetry, i have before, but i'm thinking about making a dragon for halloween and using latex. The issue is, i know of a place i can order from New York, but you have to buy a large quantity of...

Frogpuppeteer... i'm just so used to Facebook's "like" button that i would so click it, if MC had one for me to click on your post :) As for Inspiration... I find that EVERYWHERE. As i mentioned in the first post, watching how the Sesame crew is performed and how their characters are...
