Thank you all. I like the suggestions so far. Bobby benson would be a good choice because then the basic head sculpt can be used for Wayne. At some point I want to make the lost electric mayhem set that we never got that would include Rowlf. Maybe even a piano to go with him. It's certainly on...

I decided to create a new thread for this project as it will include multiple pieces over time. Today I have a fully painted test sample of an almost complete figure. I set up a paint station last night and want to see what some airbrushing and dry brushing would do. I am also considering...

OMG! That is an amazing job you did! It look official.

Is it just me or does it seem like too many songs are not sung by muppets again? Edit: I do like the opening song being we're doing a sequel. I recently watched GMC again and during hey a movie I wondered if muppets most wanted would begin in a similar fashion and it looks like it will. I also...

This is seriously incredible! Or should I say groovy? :sing:

Thank you! I can cast as many as I like once the mold is done so I think I'll cast a bunch at once an then paint them up all at once to make it easy. I'm still a few weeks out from being ready for that though.

Just an update on my mini fozzie project. Did a quick mold of the head sculpt and then did a very quick paint job to see if I was happy with the sculpt. Thought i would share the gray resin cast head and the painted sample. Somethings will be changed before the final mold is made, mainly I will...

Thank you guys very much! It's taken hours upon hours of work to get to this point. I can't wait for the holiday season to end so I can get back to this and finish it off. I've done some more since these picture were taken ( such as a second ear and eye brows) but I can't devote much time to...

It's a sculpture of Fozzie scaled to the old mini muppets from palisades toys. It's not quite finished as there is still work to be done on the head and there is an arm not attached. The plan is for Fozzie to be wiping his head with his tie as if he has just bombed on stage. I used green wax to...

I've been working on this in and off for awhile and never posted about it. Thought I would share as I get closer to completing it. It's the size of the palisades mini muppets and meant to fit in to that line. Hope you guys enjoy. I'm hoping to complete him soon depending on my job.

Also as much as I admire Kevin's talent, I don't see how people on here are able to look past what he's done. Having a relationship with 15 and 16 year old teenagers? This isn't a matter of his personal life it's a matter of breaking the law and taking advantage of kids. The idea that someone...

I think we will see Elmo removed from the show. The general public wont understand that the role is recast, if they can even recast it. Kevin is a master of puppetry. Elmo is more than a voice and a puppet. Kevin made him the little red menace we all hate to love or love to hate. Us we are...

I don't get all the talk about the title. It most likely is just a place holder. Heck, the title was announced before a page was even written. What else should they have called it? Once the movie is written then a title can be created. It will either be a title like the first 6 movies or it...

If this is Artie doing Ernie's voice then he's pretty good. At least the voice is good. My main issue with Artie's Kermit was the puppetry and Kermit's singing voice. Steve has made Kermit into a rather good singer. Jim could carry a tune but not to the extent Steve can. Artie was not that...

Interesting note. I was watching some muppets tonight episodes and watched the Whoopie Goldberg episode where the penguins sang in quacks followed by the Martin Short episode where the penguins sang in English. Those episodes aired right after one another! What the hey?

Also they sang stepping out with my baby in the Martin Short episode. So at some point they could still speak after Jim passed away but it seems more often than not after 1990 penguins couldn't speak and it has now become a rule if sorts.

In MTM they sand the line "they're finally getting married now" right before piggy enters the wedding scene. They sing it clear and not in the penguin speak we now know. Also I believe Dave played a penguin looking for a job at Pete's right after the rats got hired. Again, clear as day he said...

It was said during the commentary of The Muppets that they wanted to give the penguins a line in lifes a happy song but were told penguins can't talk in the muppet universe. This has been accepted for some time now. However when watching older productions like the muppet show and the muppets go...

I think if you jump from 1990 to 2011 you would t recognize the muppets at all. Almost the entire cast of characters has been recast. Certain characters haven't interacted in years. Certain characters have changed since the recasts, and even before. So yes, when you compare TMS and the original...

I just.....I can't.....NO! The muppets are puppets. They interact in the real world. They are extensions of their performers. Kermit's actions and mannerisms are all from Steve's performance. That would all be replaced by an animators interpretation of Kermit. Plus you totally loose the ability...
