Puppet progress

Ain't he a pretty flower - once I finish up the costume (and re-make one missing eye) he'll be good to go!
And a quick puppet still in the seaming stage - I wanted to make a little gag I thought of and thought doing an extra walk couldn't hurt a demo reel. He's only 6 1/2" tall but the ball & socket armature (armaverse) is so nice to work with! The arms/hands are wire replacing the thicker ball joints that were originally part of the armature.

Seams on the jeans are done, rest still needs some finishing.

silicone sure got it's very own look... this creature is really pretty weird -pretty and weird... and with a dead serious look on its face.

All the best for the upcoming animation process !

Awesome! What is the boy made out of? You didn't say...

Really sweet looking though.

If you ever get a chance, would you like to make a silicone puppet based on one of my aliens if I sent you a puppet? I'd love to cast silicone myself but don't have the facilities and I'd pay you for your trouble.

Nice monster. Everything is always so much creepier in stopmotion! O_o
