The hair is coming along but needs to be thicker/dense. More work to do with wool and feathers... ! Thinking about using slightly bigger/flatter pupils 18 mm instead of 16mm......Fabrics for the scarf and jacket came in today! Was going to make a scaled down body .....this for practical reasons but decided to make it full scale anyway. Enlarged my bodyhull making patterns today at the copy shop.



picture for reference...



Picture of he old body hulls going to make them twice the size now.

Oh my gosh! I have never seen a Old Joe Replica or a puppet maker making an Old Joe puppet or replica until now. I do have the Muppet Christmas Carol on DVD right now to see it around Christmastime every year.

Great job, Michael! Keep up the good work.
