Hi wondered if anybody could help me, i know that the avenue q puppets are in copyright so there are no patterns for them, but i am currently trying to make Nicky, i bought a cube of foam the other day and today attempted to sculpture the head. this failed dramatically as i couldn't get the foam as round as i would like it and the mouth seemed particularly heavy.
      I have come to the conclusion that i have bought the wrong foam. Is the Nicky head a Roly Pattern from Puppet Projects. i have researched many photos of other people using the Roly patterns and it dose seem similar. am i right in saying that the bigger the pattern on the paper is the bigger the head will be. if anybody has any ideas or advice on making this please let me know. i have added a link which has a picture of Nicky For Peoples Reference.

Hope You Can Help

Welcome to Puppets and Stuff. We have had several members build a puppet like this. Perhaps this thread may help one member documented his building of a Avenue Q puppet.
