I usually build a wire and epoxy putty armature, wrap it in polyfibre wadding glued in place. I crochet the skin as several seperate pieces and sew it all together on the puppet. The only thing I use on the surface is a little hairspray to flatten down any parts which are too fuzzy. I'm also trying to develop fully animatable fabrics by crocheting very thin coloured copper wire together with thicker yarn.


Can't wait to see what knitted creations you come up with!

I can knit, but never picked up crochet!  I think I want to give my next character something knit just for the heck of it - do you use a wire armature inside the characters, or anything on the yarn to animate the surface?

Thanks :) I've been crocheting for about 8 years. My mum taught me when I was 18. All my animations are lit using just one cheap angle-poise desk lamp with a 60w daylight simulation bulb. I'm glad it seems to be working!

Hey, thanks for the comments :)  I really love your characters - how long've you been knitting/crocheting?  The lighting is really beautiful in your videos!

thanks for the friend add!  You know robotics?? You're going to be popular around here!!


Yeah, I have a small robot from Parallax, Inc. (www.parallax.com). It looks like my picture, except that I added a few things: an LCD, line following sensors, a speaker, etc. I am hoping to get either a new processor board or a bluetooth module.

Yay for palindromic names! (sorry, I just like palindromes)


I just wanted to say that Judder took my breath away... one of the most atmospheric and innovative pieces of stop-motion I've ever seen. The interview you did for SMA.com was very interesting too :)
