    1st puppet progress

    I'll give that a look, thanks. I know that Sean Johnson of Puppet101 uses the actual foam to do his, and I like his technique too. I haven't put anything together yet so I'm still open to going either way.

    Hi there, In response to my thread over at http://forum.muppetcentral.com/showthread.php?t=24646 I was asked to post when I have something, well it isn't much but here's this much. The foam head, foamcore mouth start and foam chin: http://www.pixelmech.com/rev/monster1.jpg Note the odd...

    Arm Rods

    Yeah, I second Sean's method - it looks like a great way to go. The foam book/video shows a good method too.

    How do you make this nose?

    I want to make a classic muppet nose, think of Beaker's nose :eek: Oval and hanging down - and it seems like no seam at all. Can anyone provide some insight? Thanks Tom

    Statler and Waldorf on ESPN Classic

    Oh this is great, another good way to expose the muppets to an adult audience in a cool way :) I'll have to check it out.

    Your Thoughts: Kermit's Ford Super Bowl Commercial

    I loved it, and to hear the old green song again is great.

    Statler & Waldorf on movies.com

    This is a pretty neat way to use the Muppets in an adult setting while keeping true to the values the muppets held, I like it a lot :)

    N00bie Questions! (and hello)

    Thanks guys. Yeah, Drew obviously is a pro and really knows his stuff, he makes puppet making look easy, but I can't imagine the rationale behind not pointing out the safety issues...and the match! Ugh, it still blows me away. I can see maybe using hot glue in hard to get places. My concern...

    N00bie Questions! (and hello)

    Hi there, I'm new to the forum, I'm really glad I found it - great resource. Now to biz. I recently decided to try my hand at making some puppets again, I had tried a few years ago and got discouraged - I think partly because I didn't find the right resources. There seems to be a lot more out...

    Your Thoughts: Piggy, Jessica and Pizza Hut

    Disappointed Well this is my first post here, after waiting weeks to be able to get on this forum :) Let me just say I'm really disappointed that a muppet would be part of something that uses overt sexuality. I am not surprised, especially nowadays, but it's a real shame. My kids missed it...
