I would agree with Gonzo's Hobbit. 1/2" polyfoam would do the trick nicely.

Hey guys, could you help me find a foam seller that ships from within Germany? Or at least Europe?

I don't know if anyone asked this question but, can I use hot glue instead of contact cement for making my puppet.

That's what I use, but you need to be careful if you're using a high-temp glue gun. If you let it get too hot, then accidentally squeeze out too much, it'll melt the foam. Learned that the hard way.

Wow! I've never had foam actually melt. I agree you do need to be careful though. I always wear cloth gloves and use a heat gun set to "cool" to quickly cool the seams as I go. Makes the process much faster. And since I've started wearing the gloves I don't get burned fingers anymore!
