He seems to have a lot of wisdom in those eyes and mouth.....I can't wait to see him all stringed up....so to say.

Nice molding of materials to make a balanced face.

LOVE THEM, LOVE THEM, LOVE THEM, I find your marionettes so inspiring. I do hope to be able to do the same when I will really start making mine once I will be moved to my house.

Keep those pictures comming!!!

What can I say more than Goed  gedaan Johan hij springt al van de foto af... (Great job, Johian he already jumps off the picture)

Great work! The faces are very well done, so much expression

I love him!

Hi,

remember my princess?
Now I have been starting to carve the marionettes, I have remade the body of the princess.
Now she will be able to move better.
Here are some pics.
When the dress is ready, I'll post some more.

Sincerely Johian

nice you did a great job at carving especially for your first attempt.....congrats and thanks for the pics.

Hi puppeteers,

remember the man of wisdom? This week I carved him a body, here is the result. Was great fun, but I carved even myself - those tools are 'very' sharp! I have the box with patches standing very close to me. As a biginner this is a must!

Wonderful work Johian.  What a beautiful puppet.
