Hey Guys,
This is my first attempt at a Fraggle puppet.
He looks kinda like Boober, but that is good because thats the Fraggle that I am aiming for !

The image at the top is the final peice, The one under neath was just some feathers I had hanging around, So i thought it would be cool to make him look like Gobo.


The head and arms are just fleece, Ive used no foam.
I made the body out of the same fleece, Then made it again with the body fur (Which looks just like Gobo's!).

The hair and tail are made from Ostrich Feathers, Then we made the hat out of some old looking (But expensive, I dont get it!) material. It turned out really cool !

I put some wire inside the tail so it can stand up by itself, I also made the wire go inside the body and come out of the 'sleeve' so I can make the tail waggle without reaching up and doing.

So what do you think ?

WOW!

That is incredible Warrick, the bottom one looks totally like Gobo, but there's something missing, i just can't put my finger on it... oh yea the eyes :smirk:

And the one above is incredibe, that is totally Boober, had you used the right colours you would have totally nailed both but i bet you must have wanted something original that's why you changed his colour.

Warrick, are you planning on leaving them naked or are you going to cloth them?

oh yea and Fraggle Rock Rocks :smirk: :excited: :excited: :smirk:

ps. we really need a Shy and LOL smilie

WOW!

That's awesome, man! I don't think I could ever re-make a Muppet that well! As hard as I may try.

I can't wait to see your future puppets!
