Heres a clown/jester that won't star in my film, but I am sending it to Ron Cole who will animate for the foreign puppet exchange trip we have organised over at SMA.com. He will then send it to Brian_M_Prosser (http://www.brucebickford.com/publicist.shtml)

It should be a great experience!

Nice looking puppet! Your good with the clothing aspect of puppet making - I always had a hard time with that. Did you buy the material in a shop?

I created the main coat with  shiny coloured fabric ( From a craft store) and the hem around his neck is a different coloured fabric with a bow I took off a doll. I stitched them together with purple thread. The trousers are black cotton and the socks grey fabric. The shoes are epoxy putty, painted and varnished. The head is sculpey, painted. I enjoy the puppet making ( fabricating) side of stopmotion and hope to work in that field.
