Redo Gonzo

Ok so I had a few spare hours today so I stripped my Gonzo I had started a while back. I took off his fur which I wasn't happy with and also his eyelids. I had treated some fur a while ago to look more like the new gonzo fur, I've never been happy with the "sherpa" style fur for gonzo ( even though its the fur they used on the MR gonzo replica) If you look at the real gonzo , its not the same kind of fabric. So I treated some fur and tried to replicate gonzo fur. The eyelids were more or less just replaced and new - no big alterations. I am pretty happy with the new head now its all been put together, I will try and take some photos over the next few days. Have a great day.

FINISHED SEA MONSTER

Four Armed Hoodie Sea Monster is finished . I'm really happy how he turned out ( although the four armed hoodie was a pain to make, it looks great! ) He has a mouth similar to Beaker from the Muppets and is quite flexible - I will make a video soon and post it.



ABOVE - Original sketch next to finished product , I think he is pretty faithful to the initial sketch.

Have a great day

BABY BROTHER SHIRT


ABOVE is the spiderman shirt I custom made for the Baby Brother puppet. Most of the clothing used for my puppets are custom built. Clothing usually has to be custom built because of the size of childrens clothing , puppets usually have different proportions to children - so unfortunately childrens clothing can't be used for example puppets usually have a much wider neck than children and doesn't usually need to be as long as store bought clothing , as you can see by the spiderman t-shirt I recently built. Also to help show the tummy of the baby the front of the shirt has a slight rise in the middle to give the illusion of a fatter tummy.

BABY BROTHER FINISHED


Above is a video of the baby Brother puppet finished. The video shows his eyebrow mech which allows him to get angry and also his loose jaw. He has removable arm rods, posable fingers and posable toes. Entry if from the back which allows him to sit on your lap etc. He is also wearing custom made diaper and spiderman t-shirt. Overall I am happy with the way he has turned out from the amazing initial sketch that Eric Scales designed.
