Ooh, I am particularly fond of the Mayor. These are truly fabulous! Off to check out the rest of your gallery!

Twins? No, just a duplicate for the performence... Once he will be on top of the tower of the castle and then he will be riding his horse to save the prinses.

Cool! Are you planning on a video?

Hi Rikka,
a video... there will be a video of the performence. But we still have a lot of work.
This saturday, the group is coming together to do a setting of all the scenes.
But I still have to finish some of the puppets. I had to make a new big dragon so he moves better and also had to made another control. The first one gave to many troubles when playing. Then we have to deside if we are going to play it life or with a soundtrack. I hope to have the premiere in march. Let's cross our fingers.

Mine are crossed already! Viel Glück!

Thx Rikka,

and yes... here they are: prince charming and his beloved.

I LOVE her face! Your are SO great with expressions. And in wood, too!

And here is the prince on his horse... yeaha

Hi friends,

while we are very busy rehearsing the new play with the dragons I made one of my favourite characters... Johan

I Like the ants.......... and blue my favorite color!

You are the greatest! Unbelievable. I am running out of superlatives here!

I like him!  I want to point out to others the line going between his antennae. This is to keep the control strings from getting caught up in them. Same concept can be used in other places. I've even seen it between fingers on some puppets although it is rare that you would need it there.

Thx, indeed Shawn, I've placed a line between the antennae to keep the control strings free. Once we had to put them between fingers of a marionette  - the puppet had to do difficult movements and the strings were always strangled.
Thx Rikka and Billy.

Hi friends,

since a week we have started the rehearsals. For the soundtrack I'm adding now some pieces of music and sounds. It's big fun to see the play is coming to its endstage.
Here some pics. Johan

I LOVE your Dragons. And everything else. Cool.
