Welcome to Muppet Central Forum and the exciting world of puppet building! Looks like you're off to a great start! My first efforts didn't look quite as nice. Are you using the Project Puppet Glorified Sock Puppet pattern? Their patterns are a GREAT resource! Best of luck and have fun!

Welcome Spartan. I like what you have so far. The potential for the characters you're creating seems great. Do you have any plans for them when they're finished or are you just making them at this point?
