Love that Lost One especially, there's just something so life-like and cool about it. Also love your use of materials, plastic spoons for eyes, and pistachio shells for fingernails. :smile:

All of the other pics you posted look really great too. Love your attention to little details.

Still building!


The nearly completed upper costume for the 'Sherpa' puppet

A costume sketch for a 'Spirit Guide' character.


The first completed item for the 'Spirit Guide'....an archery wrist guard, with a pained expression because it keeps getting hit with the bowstring.

I have an indiegogo campaign running if anyone would like to check it out, to help pay for building materials...the address is:
