Ah, but Na, we've learned from your mistakes and benefited from your knowledge! Your contributions to puppet sciences lay the foundation for new researchers to create new and even more fascinating puppets! ;D

Hey good job! Very clean work. I agree he is very endearing!

Thanks guys! I'm beating myself up because the styrofoam balls are kinda rough at the edges, and I don't have his eyes and nose centered correctly, plus is head isn't perfectly round.

I'm sure I'm being too hard on myself. He's my first try, right?

My daughter named him Edward, and I think his voice is a kind of whiny, worried sound. I'll have to take more detailed shots of him, and maybe do a Youtube video.

Yeah, I was thinking that. But my daughter names him. How can I say no?

Very true.

Figured I should probably look at the images...  I like the styrofoam eyes on the guy.  They work really well.

Since I am new to this site it is great to see a puppet built from that video series.

Thanks. I am being too hard on myself with how they turned out.

I think I should dress him up. Maybe I should take Vincent on a trip to the Goodwill or Salvation Army.

Yes, I think I changed his name to Vincent. We thought of that last night when his ear fell off (Van Gogh). Maybe his full name can be Vincent Van Edward.

Nope! You're not! I do most of my building at night after the rest of the house has gone to bed. And when I'm not building I'm gaming. I'm an XBOX gamer who plays a lot of RPG's but most recently I've been playing Shoot Many Robots. Good, silly fun. I also play some multi-player stuff like Borderlands and Red Dead Redemption. But now it's time to head back into the shop so my play time will dip again. Still if you're looking to add an XBOX live friend that is also a puppet nut my gamertag is "Marcs gamertag". I live in the US Central time zone and am most often playing between midnight and 3am my time. So it would be early to mid afternoon in Australia. Not sure what zone you're in Trusty but at most I'd obviously only be an hour or two one way or the other. Whether we game together or not I'll see ya round the interwebs here at good old P&S!



I actually really love Borderlands and Red Dead. I only have Borderlands still, but only have a silver account right now My biggest problem is buying games when they're on sale, even when I have more than enough games to play. It's kinda stupid.

Do you still play a lot of Borderlands online?
