I have been a way for some time. But, I finally had some time to add more animatronic movements to my Alien head I first posted over a year ago, YIKES! The moutyh does close all the way, but in this test I did not have it adjusted. There are 2 servos in the neck, one for the mouth and one for the eyes. Size, this puppet head fits in the palm of a hand.

The movement in a lot of the cable controlled puppets I see in commercials and TV shows is often very stiff and mechanical, but the movement looks very natural in that video, nice work!

That. Is. Amazing. :eek: You did an awesome job! It looks so real! And so cool! And so tiny! That thing looks like a LOT of fun to puppeteer.
