Meet Junior. He is a purple raccon that I recently built for Garrett Hughes of AML Studios in Mobile, Alabama. He was so much fun to build and I know he will get a lot of use.
Here is the design that I was given. It was done by a company called Wacky World in Tampa, Florida. He is definitely the most colorful character I have built. Below are a few more images:
I am pleased to announce that Thistledown Puppets is undergoing a bit of a facelift. I have a new logo and soon there will be a new website–both designed by the amazing Pasha Romanowski of Project Puppet. The new site will be much more informative and much more of a visual feast than the current site. I’m so excited to see Thistledown Puppets grow and I’ll keep everyone informed on when the new site goes up!
Here are a few more photos of Mr. Toad in progress:
