He looks great! Fantastic looking puppet.
Hey Buck. Thanks. He was a blast to make.

Tztz said:
OH!
it looks so great!!!
i really like what you did with the fur.
Cheers!
Thank you Tztz. It is amazing what simply brushing fur can accomplish. The fur stays pretty well neat and combed as long as I don't shake him really hard. Neat fur makes a difference on Chewbacca.

Fuzzhead said:
Wow. That is very cool. I also really like the Darth Maul.
Hi Fuzzhead. Thanks. Darth Maul was a cool project, and offered me different challenges than Chewbacca. Both were great learning experiences.

That's so cool! Great work!
Cheers Ventrilotwist. I appreciate your kind comments.

Fozzie Bear said:
Ha ha ha! That makes me laugh for some reason.
Hi Fozzie Bear. What a great response to a puppet. I am glad he helped you get a laugh.

That is one awsome funny lookin Wookie. Good work on it dude. Keep it up.
Hey Erine81981. I am glad you like him. I plan on building a bunch more puppets over the summer (for different projects). I will be sure to post more pictures as the months go on.

Lab Rat said:
Chewbacca is superb are you planning to do any more star wars characters?
Cheers Lab Rat. I am a fan of your puppets, so I truly appreciate your positive praise. Yes, there are more to come.

really nice you do great work
Thanks Kimp the Shrimp. I am glad you like my work. I am currently working on a green creature puppet, I am not sure when he will be done though.

That's a great job! The air brushing around the eyes looks so good! Fantastic puppet!
Thank you dsarver. I have started to use airbrushing more regularly. I love the results as well. Thanks for the kind words.

What a great take on our loveable blue-eyed furball.

You do fantastic work Blink, keep it up.
Hey KermnieBaby47. You must have posted while I was responding to the others. Thank you. Funny, I never realized that Chewie's eyes were blue until I started to build this puppet. I am happy that you are a fan of my work. The summer is here and the building shall continue!

Ha, Ha! As long as I am not the only one who does it. And if you have done it too, then I am in good company. Thanks for the positive words ravagefrackle.

Thanks muppetwriter. I was going for a slightly softer version of the Star Wars characters.

Exellent! Pure genious :-D
Hey BorkBork! Thanks so much. I like to think I have some intelligence, but I wouldn't use the word genious. It is very kind of you to describe my work like that.

Thanks dingolad, and welcome to the forum. The Darth Maul puppet's eyes are half dome craft eyes (you can also use ping pong balls) with differnt coloured electrical tape cut out and suck on.
