Medieval Character Custom Portrait Puppet

We recently built a medieval custom hand/rod puppet character for a private client in Saint Paul, MN.

The client provided us with reference to a medieval character based off of an old BBC show.

Here are the results…

How was the puppet built?

Puppet was built using NylaFleece, ultra suede, custom-made eyes/nose/ears, foam-carved teeth, treated/styled wig with custom-made wardrobe to match client’s reference photos.

Puppet also includes removable arm rods, pose-able armature wire hands and removable costume plus hood.
