Yeah I just pitured him saying "arhhhh" Alot, I don't know if you can tell but his face sort of came out crooket so it sort of compliments the eye. I got the Idea from Angel marie off of MTI.

Love it! He has a ton of character. Reminds me a lot of some of the MTI characters.

I can tell by the ends of the pins in these early pics that you're still in the middle of working on his head, but I must say, the progress of the head in this paticular pic looks a little like something I might've put together... building certainly is a lot harder than performing, but the recent pics you shared, he looks AWESOME, can't wait to see the completed puppet!

He's gona have a Pet squirrel name Fred that Only he can here!

I have a stuffed squirrel, my uncle gave me. But maybe it would be funnier if he was the only one who could see him. I saw that once on a movie but I cant remember which one it was.

thanks for reminding me!!
