Pickman's Model

Hey Hey honky cats! We started pre-pre-production on our short film for the HP Lovecraft Film Fest. And by that I mean "I am 1/10th into making the first of 4 puppets, we have a co-writer for the script and I looked online to see the submission closing date". 

The 'skin' of our narrator

I saw the new Muppets Movie and was inspired- it's so wonderful, I think I teared up about six times. Tonight I'm teaching myself the Henson Stitch and reading puppet making blogs like Puppet Muse, it's full of creative and fun puppet-making tips and ideas for anyone who's interested! 

And because 50% of my readers are fashion bloggers who don't care about my puppet obsession, here's what I am wearing while I stitch the night away in front of the X Files and pig out on Singaporean take-away! Fashionably fleecy! I match my puppet.
