I work in my moms upholstery shop . I was looking around at the materials and got an idea. If anyone could help me find some info on the skeletal and musculature of large cats id like to make a lion like the white lion on the jim henson hour. i was hoping some one here might know where the creature shops got there resorses. i just wana make a stationary figuer basicly a life sized soft action figure.

Hi Jason, welcome to MC.

Personally I wouldn't worry about where the creature shop gets it's resources - they're working on multi-million dollar projects and often bring in experts as consultants. A good place for the average person to start looking for this kind of information is probably your local library. Not sure if you're in high school or college, but a biology teacher could probably help with this sort of thing. You could also probably find some good information just by doing a quick Google search.

well you might want to check out "van dykes taxedermy supply", they have a web site and sell lion forms (they are pricey), but they also sell glass eyes and stuff, there are also some great teddy bear supply companies that sell bulk fur,

good luck
