Long, long ago I posted a dinosaur puppet I built. I have re-built him and want the world to see. I am a big fan of the more "minimalist" puppets so I went that direction. Here's the drawing I did:

And here's how Spike turned out:

(Crappy photo, I know!)

Here's his head:

Took me about 30 minutes of posting before I remembered you can't post images in the forums.

What does everyone think? Too minimalist? Should I go heavier on the details?

I like him a lot! He has a nice shape to him & he resembles the drawing very nicely.

I'm not sure about the minimalist aspect....so I won't comment that right now.

Personally I think he looks AMAZING. Absolutely great and packed with personality. I don't think much of anything should be changed :wink:

They're both so wonderfully delightful, I can't decide wich I like mroe; the drawing or the puppet. The drawing really looks like something straight out of a Disney movie to me.:smile:

Awee he's so cute! Very nicely done. Like Teenagers, I have no idea as to the minimalism aspect. I guess I'm not sure what else you would have added.
