Description
This is a huge hand puppet (height 127cm) that I made. I attended a very interesting lecture by Dave Barclay ([link] ) at FurtherConfusion 2008 that gave me the inspiration for building this puppet. All the joints in the body are flexible and the head can be played thru the back of the neck. The eyes can move in all directions, the eyelids and eyebrows are moveable, the ears can fold backward and the tongue can extend. It's build like my fursuits, the fur can be detached from the body. There are no electronic components inside the puppet. everything is controlled by pulling on strings (it's very hard to use everything - I will have to change the mechanics someday).
