We end this short week with a goblin built for a client. If I ever had to pick just one type of creature to build from now on it’d be goblins. #puppets #puppetbuilding

Blank fleece handpuppet without any facial features
We got a body! Still need to attach the arms and add facial features, but I don't really know what I want this little fellow to be as they are a bit of a practice piece.
Any suggestions?

My latest puppet building experiment.
It’s strongly inspired by the grotesque, satirical puppet legends of early Spitting Image and Les Guignols puppet caricature styles as well as The Muppets.

The client requested a Greeblee that could be a relative of a certain monster at the end of a book. I believe I understood the assignment.
Perhaps a Legally Distinct Celebrity Neurotic Monster will be available for general sale soon 🤔#puppets #puppetbuilding #artist #smallbusiness

Another small update, but something I'm kinda proud of.
These will be Kermits new arm rods. The rods are removable, so they can be stored away when not in use. Also, first time I'm using the fuzzy skin setting to give the handles a grippy surface.

It can be difficult to make two identical #puppets even working from the same pattern, but a client wanted a copy of one I did years ago and I think I got pretty darned close. #puppetbuilding
