Building a Bee Puppet Posted by spam on Dec 22, 2008
Hiya all.
Its been a while since i posted anything so i apologise for that. first let me wish everybody a very merry Christmas.
I was asked to build a Bee Puppet and thought i would try to take some progress snaps for you to see. unfortunately there were times during the build that i got carried away and forgot to snap away so the snaps are a bit jumpy through the build. anyway i just wanted to try and give something back to all those who have help me.
i used the roly pattern for the head and carved the body from foam block. i tried a lot ofnew techniques here and am pleased with the result.
let me know what you guys think.Bee3Bee2Bee4Bee17Bee20Bee21

heres some snaps of the finished bee. hope you like him.Bee25Bee6
i used a plastic milk carton to make the wings. the black feathers on hishead were a late addition to cover up some glue marks that were left from attaching his antenae. but nobody knows that and it looks good anyway!

cheers Spam
