Russ Walko 'King of Pop' puppet

[davidmartiste]

I am the very happy owner of a new Russ Walko puppet. I did a quick blog about a new puppet I had just been working on and also uploaded an image of the MJ puppet that I commissioned from Russ Walko. I can't sing Russ' praises enough. He really does outstanding work. He's a puppeteers dream. The fit is wonderful and he just operates flawlessly.

Russ also added a great cleaned up image of the puppet to his flickr account: http://www.flickr.com/photos/33190275@N07/3868742856/

How great to see this just when I'm about to pay Russ for a second puppet. He never ceases to amaze me. Real skill this guy has.

Awesome puppet, btw, off-topic where did you get that amazing kermit in the gallery?

No - I did not. I would imagine it's one of Russ' builds just for himself. I've only ever purchased his 'otter' character which is wonderful as well. http://www.flickr.com/photos/33190275@N07/3237324534/

Oh, so I presume it was his gallery, either way the MJ puppet is cool.

Yes - the flickr gallery was Russ'. The blog was me.
