yeah...it's eyes are kinda like kermit's, but i want eyelids to look like gonzo's. :concern: the puppet's head is shaped kinda like a mix between a fraggle's and bert's, and the eyes are on the top/front of the head. i'm playing around w/ different building ideas, so this puppet wasn't really...

after looking over that site, i'm very thankful to be a part of this new, updated site. this one's a lot easier to navigate. much cooler. :cool:

i just finished making an experimental puppet out of some materials in my house (old fleece blanket my dog chewed on, pillow stuffing, cardboard, tshirt, ping pong balls...). i made the mistake of using crazy glue on the mouth and eyelids. not cool. :concern: it bleached the color of both the...

i have a question for you. the only puppets i've successfully made so far are made primarily of glue and foam, but i've just started exploring the whole art of making puppets with sewing. how do you stuff/form the head of a sewn cloth puppet without blocking the access to the mouth? (i hope i...

i've seen some of the puppets that you guys have made, and i'm very impressed with some of them. i was just wondering where you all started or learned to start up building puppets. :confused: i'm very much a self-taught puppeteer/builder of about 10 years, so i look forward to learning from...

hello all. my name's isaac. Henson's been an idol of mine for a very long time, and i think it's great that there's a place to gather with others that love him and his work. i look forward to meeting you all.
