Hello everyone.  I've been building for a very short while and just found this site.  It looks excellent!  I've already found some useful information about glues that I had been looking for.

Here is the link to my first (and, as of now, my only) puppet - Maurice Knucklehead.

  hey!  to P&S!

Nice puppet. What pattern you used for head?
Really nice puppet! 

Your first Puppet!  Nice work!

Great little clip you have there....I like the voice and you have pretty good eye contact with the camera. 

Can't to see more in the future.

Welcome to Puppets and Stuff. I really enjoyed the video and you did a great job on your puppet.

Thanks ya'll.  

I learned enough to build that puppet trying to land a job with a local puppet building company - Animax Design.  They do really nice work.

I'm an unemployed architect with a fine arts background.  I am now specializing as a Mr. Mom and doing all I can to supplement the family income between delivering and picking up my children from school.

I'm trying to keep up designing and building puppets to get some contract work.  Even if puppet building doesn't make money for me now, it is still a really inexpensive way to develop a skill and is fascinating fun.

I post up some sketches later.

Thanks again for the encouragement.

Nice puppet. What pattern you used for head?
Really nice puppet! 

Thanks.  I just freestyled the head based on what I got from the Red Panda video that Thistledown posted and some other information I got off the web.

This forum is great.  My knowledge has doubled just since I found this site today.

I just want to say: Verrrry wellll done misterrrr Poindexter!!!
Your accent is great! As I live very close to the French border I hear a lot of those accents.
I love your pupet very much!
Hope to see more of you in the near futur!

Hi Micheal,
the puppet looks great.
Did you make the drawings in the video? I like them.
For me (i am a german) its very hard to understand every word from the video.
But it sounds very funny and he seems a bit uppity.
Cool.

Welcome to Puppets and Stuff.  I hope you don't stop at just one puppet.  Maurice is a wonderful character.  I want to see more wonderful characters come out of your workshop.
