Harry the big Foot tightrope walker

Posted on June 23, 2012 at 7:48pm 0 Comments

Well I am in Harry mode again. Took of time to clean up all my work areas. I have pulled out all of My marionettes and inspected them for repair issues. Now I am back to building. I am going to finish my Wild West Review. a rodeo style circus. I restarted Harry and have his hands , feet, and body to sculpt. I found two copies of Your Feets Too Big, for his music. I have all the designs for the tightrope. So things are look  up for Harry!

Dolly Project down to stringing and costume.

Posted on September 1, 2009 at 12:45pm 0 Comments

I have every thing done but, one hand needs final paint and nails and of course her dress. I cut the pattern last night and did the fitting. I am going with a long dress instead of the short. All have left is to costume and String the old girl. I do any touch ups before her dress goes on. am making the skirt and top and sleeves and will put all the pieces on her and sew them together by hand on her. I am hoping to post a video of the finished project soon. Dan

DOLLY HEAD CAST AND QUICK PAINT

Posted on August 4, 2009 at 2:37am 0 Comments

Here's Dolly's head just out of the mold and her hips fleshed out and her breasts. and the head sanded and quick paint to see how she will look

Dolly's just needs smoothing!

Posted on July 28, 2009 at 9:35pm 5 Comments

I finished the Dolly Parton head, I just need to do a little smoothing before the mold is made. Next two of the hardest things I have ever had to sculpt. I guess you know where I am headed next the body for her. I think I am sticking with cloth arms for her. But time will tell. Dan

Welcome to puppet hub. Your work is very fine!

I love your two puppet heroes. I was sitting next to Phillip Huber in 1969 when I saw Frank Paris perform at my first puppet festival. What an isnspiration. Phillip was my boyhood friend. Can you imagine two kids from the same town in the midwest developing the same love for puppets independently and then becoming friends.

Wow Thank you for that. I just the got the most vivid picture of Frank working Carmen for me. The thing I love about those two great guys is the way they both love to teach others the craft and share any info. Boy, I can't wait for Philip to come this way again, last time I caught three of his shows....All I can say is WOW!

Phillip is a great teacher because of his patience and his ability to bring out the best in people. I only met Frank Pairs once when I was fifteen. I thought I had died and gone to heaven. I wish I could have known him better. I have a feeling we might have been great friends. Too bad puppet hub didn't exist when some of these great people were with us.

By the way what materials do you build in? I use carved wood and neoprene.

Great minds think alike. As to my stage I knew how to make a parralel from my college theater days. I actually don't have plans for that stage. It was kind of designed as I went along. I knew the size I needed, and had the plywood cut to order and framed it up in one by two. The parralels are also made with one by two. Its a really good stage it takes a beating everyday and just keeps going. I can set the basic stage up in about five minutes. The blocks inside that hold the aluminum poles are walnut. All the wood came ready cut at home depot.

My stage is only six feet wide by four feet deep. I sacrificed a little stage width for weight, but it has worked out well through the years.

Daniel. Did you know you can chat? On the bottom right of your screen it will say how may people are on line. It is a pull up chat screen.

No problem. I tried to catch you but missed. Next time I'll try again. I spoke with Fred and he is going to bring one of the knife throwers to the PotLatch festival in November. Hope you can make it to that one. Talk to you later

I can't wait to see the finished Dolly.

That would be amazing Dan, yes please!!

also.. you need to write a book if you haven't already, i'm sure it would sell with great pics like that! ( i know.. where is the time! :) )

i'd also be interested to know which materials you use to see if i can find the same here in the UK. i assume you start with oil based clay? are you marionettes always a set height? i wonder as mine tend to be a lot smaller and seem to be getting increasingly miniature


see i have lots of questions now you've started med off!
