Sorry I can't answer your question, but I really like the puppet in your avatar. Do you have any more pictures of your puppets?
Hey, thanks! That's 'Monkey Jay' a character I build and perform for several local TV Shows.
I have a couple, (and when I say a couple I do mean a couple), of pictures here: www.davealvarez.deviantart.com Check the "Scraps" Section.
Eventually I will open another DA Account for the puppetry stuff only.
