Does anyone know a specific pattern for the skeleton for the body? Also how do I put arms on the body if the body is made of hoops?

Hey, does anyone know how to make the feet of a full bodied puppet. Is it made of leather, or rubber like a shoe? I need to know because I have a future project coming up and it's going to be done sooner than later.

Sorry for all the questions guys but I have this picture I made of the final design. Me and my bro designed the bird(when it comes to the color of the whole body)

Tell me what you guys think and also (if you can) give me some good tips about the pattern of the upper body.

Here's my new photo of a closeup on his face. I re-colored his feathers on the top of his head. They are supposed to be ostrich feathers but I suck at drawing ostrich feathers. lol

Great work, Puppetise... I'm eagerly awaiting your full-body how-to! I recently signed on to build a full-body puppet for a short film having no idea how I would tackle it. Any chance you could post pictures of the inside too!?

Thanks!
