Monster Pattern

[Nick]

Hey all you gurus and wizards!

Is there a pattern available for a monster ie; Oscar, Trekkie, Cookie?
(Now clear that thought out of your mind... I don't want to make one of those... just something along those lines... basic shape, is what I meant.)

I want a fun project this weekend, and I bought 3 yards of flocati fur, and some really cool items to dress it up. I tried a forum search, and found someone with a similar question... but it was never really answered, and the one pattern that was offered (it was free, which is cool) is basically a one piece construction.

I don't have any foam carving skills..yet

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

That's pretty wide open. For any puppet character, it's good to have a sketch/idea of what you want to do. Why do you feel that a one piece construction wouldn't work? I'm not sure about Cookie or Oscar, but Trekkie is built in a 'one piece' style.

If you have your heart set on a multi-piece construction, try the Consumer Monster Pattern. It's another free one, I think the link has been mentioned on here a few times.

Hope i helped,

Jason

Yes, you did... Wow, I thought all puppets were of the separate head type of ideal.... I just did not like the seam down the middle of the one piece. I need to do a search for that pattern now

Thanks
