Awesome James!

Thanks guys. I'll see how I go converting him to a glove puppet. Might need to do some more research first! He is kinda heavy Chris but he sits nicely in my lap so it's okay! Callmemilo, the eyes are really the aspect I like least and I've struggled with them. I'll see if I can improve them any...

Your act sounds awesome!

Thank you. He's much bigger than I intended but I'm happy with him.

Hi, finally I can post some photos of my first ever puppet! I would love some feedback on how I could improve my design etc. I am also struggling with what to use as arm rods as his arms are quite heavy and the suggested wires I've read about just buckle under the weight. Any ideas on an...

It's a nice spot and the Busker's Festival is always huge. I would really love to hear about the project you're working on. What sort of acts do you have? Can I ask you, how do I post photos to this site?

Absolutely nice to meet some fellow Aussie enthusiasts. To be honest, I've only just made my first puppet, which is why I'm here. I'm about six hrs North of you in Coffs Harbour.

I fought my Mum daily as to which of us would take him to school. A few years ago, my Mum bought me a figurine of Super Grover...

Hi Fishbone, not sure where you are but here in Australia, I was hunting to buy foam for my puppet and went to a foam and rubber distributor. When I told them what I planned to do with my foam, they offered me a massive bag (literally filled my car) of off cuts. They were more than big enough...

Sorry, I should probably mention I'll post some pics in a couple of days. Just need to work out how...

Hi Everyone, I'm new to this site so hopefully I'm posting in the right place. I have my own business creating mythical creatures and cloth dolls. I have always wanted to take my designs that step further and incorporate movable mouths etc and this week, I finally did it! I am desperate for some...
