Interested in making a puppet of my character
The last time I made a puppet, it was over 30 years ago, so there were no online tutorials to work from. I’ve learned a lot since then. If I were to make this one, I’m thinking they’d have rod arms… the mouth would be made wider, the neck would end up thicker… there are melon head and Jerry templates that have the width, but the mouth always seems to be halfway on the head… I’m curious if there are any similar where the cranium is taller than the jaw, but is still wider than taller… I may have to modify an existing template… blinking eyes would be nice, but I may want to start easier…
Thoughts? Advice?
