little article about it here
Several good friends were involved in this show(one designed the puppets), one was a puppeteer, the puppets were built by 3design, the same guys who did eureekas castle, among other things,

your best option is to improvize, you may have to custom dye something, i dont know anything about fur avalibility in london, but the fur used on fozzie, as with most old scholl muppets is most likley no longer on the market, u have to keep inmind that fur like most fabrics is created mainly for...
thier was actualy a very lengthy describtion of thsi in another thread , look it up in the search, its just a basic sewing stitch that was informally called "THE HENSON STITCH" i think someone even posted a link to a sight with a diagram.
NOT A BLOW TORCH!!!!!!!!!!!!
you can use a hot air gun, again be careful, and do some test on scraps, do not use a actual flam, most fur piles are flamable to a degree.
u may also try rubbing in clear hair gels,that will help them keep thier shape, but it will also atract more dirt and dust ,
might i suggest washing it , yes wshing it, add detergent, and lots of fabric softner, do it on a hot setting, maybe even do it twice, then spin dry, and hang it out side, it should look considerably more textured than it started, (i would do a test peice, just to be sure it gives you your...
i can think of a worse thing , the animated versions of the puppets , have none of the life, or humor, that the real ones do, i wouldrather Sesam street got back to the old format, and maybe got some better writing.
well , you dont need proof you want it, and i will not site my sources here, but needless to say, i am a professional, im involved in the industry, and i have spoken to more than a few of my collegues,and its true, you can choose to believe it or not, i dont really care,

its a fabric , i dont know what it is called,
not all puppets are made with antron fleece, sometimes u have to find somthing with the right texture for your project , fur and fleece, are nice, but its the wierd stuff that sometimes maka memorable puppet, remeber thier are no rules as to what...
Added a few more pics, , some what nots faces that i did, (see if u can idetify them) as well as a few pigs that i turned ito the Three tenors, and a couple of me at work
Welcome to the group,

Good to know , i may have sent the same people a response to their add as well, ill will most defineley be wary , but i always am, been burned to many times to count, but it is good advice for those younger builders out thier.
DUDE CHILL OUT, i was making a snipey little comment , you stated that you were just gonna give up in your post, so i wrote back,
no yes thier maybe easier ways of doing something , but life in the world of TV production is rarely easy,
its not just the muppets whop produce shows this...
