IF the pics are better in the English edition- something I don't know. The German is the original, not the copy!

Well, I can't really understand how a book can have such a bad image quality
Anyway, think positive, you'll have to experiment and get to your own puppet designs! haha I know, not much of a consolation :D

It was print low budget in the 1970's... Different times, different definition. I've been experimenting since April. But it doesn't seem to get boring or anything. Must be the good ol' RPG- puzzlesolver in me...

Guys, one question, Is there anywhere I can get the wooden "neck piece" that Shawn uses on his video? Or how can I make it? I bet it involves some type of machine to shape it.. a carpenter will be able to make it, or other type of professional?

thanks!

I get the neck pieces at the hobby store. They may not have them in Argentina so you might have to find a wood worker that could make them for you or perhaps order online. I don't have any of the packages so can't give you specific details on the item name or manufacture but we allways called them dolls. I think they are made so people can make their own little Lego folks.

Have a look, I love her gallaries and she offers free patterns. But of course the armatures are fix, not to be used with puppets.

Great site, Rikka, thanks! I'll check it out on more detail later :P

Shawn, are you referring to: http://www.hobbysuperstore.com? I made a search for "dolls" and couldn't find the piece.

I found them on line. http://www.craftparts.com/little-wooden-people-c-467.html  It was either the "Dad - Little People"  or "Man Body - Little People" that I was using.  Actually either of the "Ball Finial / Train Bells" might work just as well or even better. You could also use these and put glue them to a longer dowel. http://www.craftparts.com/dowels-dowel-rods-dowel-caps-wooden-c-168_172.html

Lots of possibilities at this site. Hobby Lobby and Michaels both use to carry much of what you see on this site but in the past few years they seem to have decreased what they carry in this line of stuff.

P.S.  People who make doll houses use a lot of these things and in fact that is the section I always find this stuff in the hobby store. If you have a hobby store close check out the section for doll houses.

Wow, thanks Shawn, I'll see if I can build that little part myself, otherwise I'll contact those guys to see if they can ship me some of those NECKS!!! :D:D
