    Keeermit,
    1 - Your Muppets are AMAZING! INCREDIBLE! AWESOME!
    2 - Can you take us through a Muppet building from start to finish? Pics at each stage, materials used, hints and tips, tools needed, how-to's, specific paint, you name it... I know that there are tutorials out there, but yours are the best Muppets ever! (next to the Muppets of course!). You could do it like a blog, keeping us updated on each day. Then we could all get a feel for just what it takes (and how long it takes) to make one of these! Let us know!
    You Rock!

    There is a Rogers Foam Corporation like right down the road from me. My dad fixes there shipping doors. I was like oooo maybe I could get a hook up.... WRONG $500.00 min order I think it was $68.59 for a sheet 72"x36" I might be wrong I have it on my work e-mail. I might go hit up there trash bin.

    He has a mini tutorial on his website, showing how to make his wombat puppet. Personally I don't think he needs to give to much info because that is his job. If Jarrod was to tell us everything he knows he would be out of a job.

    The best way to learn is trial and error. I know that every puppet I make I learn a little from and the puppets I mess up on I learn even more.

    If you look at Jarrod's earlier work the muppet replicas were not always perfect. He had to try and try again he has made several versions of ernie and elmo and what not.

    Making puppets takes time don't rush it and have fun making mistakes. Nobody is perfect when they start anything it takes determination and that is exactly what Jarrod has done.

    Personally I don't think there is only one way to make a puppet go and explore options try different fabrics foams and what not. One of my college professors told me at art school playing it safe is boring. So lets see those mistakes and lets all learn from them.

    Great job on building the Boober puppet replica, although it needs the replica of Boober's hat.
  9. Keeermit Member

    yeah I know boober needs the right hat, thats why it says "boober in the making" :) plus last time i looked boober wasnt wearing fozzies hat :o
