Beaker attempt

[Muppetlab]

Ok you lovely lot..
Its that time of year again where im getting withdrawral symptoms from building replicas.. So i started my latest build two days ago... BEAKER!

I will share some progress photos as i go.. So hear goes -

Mouthplate -

Mouthplate glued into the head-

Im covering the head with craft foam just to give him a softer feel-

And now cutting the fleece-

And checking it for size -

I will update as i go but any feedback/suggestions are as always welcome

He's looking good so far! Beaker is such a great character to have around, and he's really not that hard to create. I often wonder why more people don't build replicas of him. Keep up the good work!

Thanks Toodles
Yea he is relativly simple tho hos simple appearence can be deceptive when it comes to constructing the mouth! Ive spent all afternoon tweeking, trimming, glueing and stitching to get the finish i wanted-

Finally happy with it! Now time for some features
