ReplyDeleteThe head shape is very kewl.
What kind of silicone are you using ?
The paper cement was to glue the padding, right ?
What is the padding material and where do you got that ?
Scissors, scissors, scissors... the results were worthing it man !
Really nice puppet build-up! I'm curious about that padding material myself. Some sort of craft foam scissored down? Anyways, great post!
ReplyDeleteVincent - Thanks! You can kind of read the label of the silicone tub and blue bottle, I don't remember the specific type, though. And yes, Rubber cement works perfect to glue on the foam.
ReplyDeleteJon - It's Foam Rubber sheets, you can just get it on Amazon.com from a company call "Du-Bro. I used mostly the 1/4th inch. It's nice foam for puppets.
Your puppets look great!!!! More pictures!!!!
