T-Rex Puppet
This puppet was built for a friend down in South Carolina. He is the Creative Director for a Christian retreat center called Look Up Lodge in Traveler’s Rest. They offer Summer Camp programs for kids, which is where Mr. T-Rex will be used in live presentations about dinosaurs.
He is covered in a vinyl “snakeskin” fabric for a more realistic feel.
The claws were made out of polymer clay,…
…the eyes were made from glass taxidermy eyes,…
…and the teeth were carved directly out of foam for a nice soft bite–because experience has taught me that kids love to stick their hands directly into puppets’ mouths!
