Sea Otter Puppet Part 5

Ok sea otter now has his nose, which is hand carved reticulated foam dyed, I am happy with the head.

Below are the sea otters hands with arm rods, its the same color antron fleece as the bridge on his snout area.

Below is the body shape , constructed from sheet foam. The body is made up of 5 segments.

Photo below is showing the reinforcement ring made from closed cell foam to help the body keeps its shape.

Sea Otter Puppet Part 4

Below is the Sea Otter with his eyes and ears attached, all is needed now is the nose to be dyed and the head is finished, next is moving onto the body.

Below is a side view of the eyes and ears, sea otters have cute little downward facing ears.

Sea Otter Puppet Part 3

Foam skull has been constructed from sheet foam, Otter whiskers have been added.

Above shot of the foam skull, I find it useful at this point to draw on the skull the placement of the eyes and any other details so I can see if the design works in 3D.

The fur has been attached to the skull and trimmed around the face. also the top of his snout area has been covered with a dark brown Antron fleece.

Once the eyes have been sprayed white I place them on the head just to see if its all working out how I see it in my head - so far so good, next it the eye details and attaching eyes to head, and ears - then the head is complete.

Above is the pattern for the antron fleece covering for the snout area, also showing the antron sewn together and ready to be placed over the carved foam.

Above is the front view of the snout once the antron has been placed over the foam snout

New Ebay Monster puppet RALPH

below is a link to my latest Ebay pupper RALPH, check him out - he was a labor of love, spending countless hours attaching his ostrich feather plumes to his head to give the effect of the "hair" growing out from his head.

Green Monster Update

Oh dear, this didn't work out the way I had hoped - I kind of got carried away and forgot to take pictures of this puppet, and now he is finished! So from the last update I covered his foam sculpted nose with Antron, attached four different colours of Ostrich plumes for his hair and added his hands and feet, both which are posable. He also has removable arm rods. I will try and take better pictures soon - this was just a quick reference shot of him on my puppet stand. Have a great day all

P.S. he wont always be wearing a T-shirt I was just trying it on him

Green Monster Update

Here is the green monster puppet updated - I have covered his head in fur and attached to the body, I have also carved his nose and pinned it to the head to check the size and shape. Next the nose will be covered in Antron fleece and I will make him a set of eyes. I have also made his tongue which has been made from a pink ultra suede and outlined with a dark red pen.
