Great job!  I love it, and the way the colors fit together.
Very professional.

Great puppet... love those feet!

Jaw dropping, beautiful, amazing! I'm curious about the sale, set price or auction? Ebay? what do you hope to get, will you let us know the final figure, if that's not too rude.
I only ask because it is such an outstanding puppet it really will give a bench mark of what is possible in the market.
I don't know if I could part with him if I'd made him!

I am truly blessed by all your fantastic comments on my puppet, as this is the first time i have put up any pictures on this site, i was a lite anxious of feedback because i have seen some absolutely amazing work from you guys and criticism is always the hardest thing to take even if it is constructive!! i have made many puppets in the past, but this one is one of about five i have made so far to sell in order to make a little more money towards my wedding next year, so although i always get a little attached to the puppets i sell, i am more so attached to this one as it is going to help towards the rest of my life!! also, because he has new mechanisms in his arms to be versatile, he means more to me, as it feels like somewhat of a breakthrough in things that are unique to me as a puppet builder and performer. i will see what i can do to put together some sort of video showing how he moves and so that you guys can understand what i am talking about concerning the new arm mech. each time i make a new puppet, i figure out better ways to do things and it builds my confidence and helps me to keep pushing the boundaries in my puppet building!!
again, thank you for your comments, it really has helped alot.

I have to agree with everyone - WOW!!!!  What a fabulous puppet!  ANYONE would be honored to add him to their puppet family!  Please keep sharing your photos with us!!

Wao, What a great job. Coolest puppet around. Well done 

Great work! Love the colours

oh and by the way,  8)cool idea to enter this puppet into that competition CandCpuppetproductions, but this guy was made using NO pattern that exists, so because i did not make him using the 'round head pattern' it would not be a valid entry, but thank you for the thought tho !! but each time i make a new design, i obviously develop a pattern and keep it, so i will most probably make another version of him in the future!!!
anyway, thanks again for the lovely comments on my new puppet, it really is great to hear other peoples opinions .
